A sad blast, unfortunately - As of this summer I am no longer a member of the Centenary Summer Band (not by choice) - concerts held annually in the college amphi - theater since the 1950's. My first time to play was summer 1966 with Mr. B.P. Causey who had also been my band director at Centenary and the sponsor of my college scholarship. It was fun, folks, mosquitoes included. Most of all I will miss my friends and colleagues, many of whom I have known since junior high at Lakeshore, high school at Fair Park and college at Centenary. I brought my children and grand children to these same concerts.
Below are 2 photos taken by Bill Causey, Jr. for the Shreveport Journal afternoon newspaper in the early years when we played with Centenary Band Director B.P. Causey on the podium.
