Contained in the sealed capsule are over several hundred items that will show the people of Burbank in year 2111 what life here in Burbank was like 100 years ago. It includes most of the Centennial promotion items that were available this year, letters from current Mayor Jess Talamantes, CD’s and DVD’s and even a player to hear & view them on in year 2111, along with flash
drives with minutes from City Council meeting, plans of Burbank currently and proposed for the next several years, pictures, newspapers, autographed books and more.
The ceremonies included the singing of “It’s a Small World” by the Elementary kids from St. Robert Bellermine School and the introduction of local and State Officials, and Department Heads.
The Ceremony concluded with the unveiling of the ‘Time Capsule’s home for the next 100 years, in the front of Burbank’s Famous City Hall.
