The Herdmans steal, scream, fight, and smoke cigars (even the girls!). Their classmates are only safe from them at church. That is until an innocent comment brings the Herdmans into church and starring in the annual Christmas pageant.

The Dixie wins The Distinguished Partner in Education Award! January 18 I just got back from the Chamber of Commerce Banquet and am proud to announce that the Dixie Center for the Arts won: 2008 presented to The Dixie Center for the Arts For making education a top priority through your Lincoln Parish School Board Ruston-Lincoln Chamber of Commerce Gala I wish you all could have been there to help receive the plaque from Danny Bell and Cathy Cox that we will proudly display at the Dixie. This award belongs to all of you who have gone before us to “set the stage” for things like this to happen. This award was only part of the great things to happen tonight—one of our stalwart supporters, Mr. John Emory, very deservedly received the “Robert E. Russ Award”. Congratulations, Mr. Emory, you deserve this award and more. You do so much for our community. We wouldn't be where we are without your support and belief in the Dixie and its missions. We will have photos and info up on the website as soon as possible. But, I wanted you all to be the first to know. Visiting with Mr. Emory after the banquet, he said to me “I believe that we are right at the edge of really big things happening at the Dixie.” I totally agreed and told him that every day something better than the day before happens to us and I am excited to see where the adventure is taking us. Thanks again and Congratulations to all of you! Marlen |
