According the the Faribault High School website, "Green is not a color, it's an attitude!" and each year during the Falcon homecoming celebration, that rings true.

At KRFO, our sister station in Owatonna, morning show host Loren Hart has been turning his love of area history into something he can share with listeners on the KRFO webpage by tracking down videos filmed in Owatonna from the past that have been shared to the internet. Inspired by this, I thought it would be fun to see what was out there for Faribault.
