Rally On The Red...Shreveport, LA

South Central Area Rally met in September 2010 in Shreveport, LA.  The theme for the rally was “Rally On The Red” because of Shreveport’s location on the Red River.  While the Maestros were small in number dedication and enthusiasm were high.    Choral member Cynthia Lee accepted the need for a choral-band director and saw to it that Maestro music was made.

As reported by Lenore Combs, “Cynthia also made us very proud as she sang the National Anthem at the evening entertainment for Patriotic Day.  She was accompanied by the Air National Guard “Band of the Gulf Coast”, Ceremonial Brass Quintet.  It was a glorious knock-out performance!”


Lenore continued, “Nathan Colter was pressed into service as our Sergeant At Arms.  He rallied the Flag Bearers, US Army, US Navy, US Marines, US Air Force and US Coast Guard.”

The Maestro chapter walked away from Chapter Carnival with a $100 third place honor and a $25 incentive.

With good music, lots of dancing and the Mardi Gras parade the rally lives on in memories.

The South Central Frustrated Maestro chapter was chartered in October 1985 and has celebrated the 25^th Anniversary.
