An early Sing-Out South practice at Belmont College (now University), Winter 1966
It was one year ago today....June 29, 2009 that the Spirit of Sing-Out South was born.
Since our first posting that day, we've added 62 others to this blog (more than one a week) outlining the interesting history and times of our singing group from the 1960s.
I urge you to take a moment to look back through the posts. It will bring back a lot of good times and great memories. The postings are listed on the left hand side of this blog by month.
We've covered a lot of events and topics, but we've still got a lot more to do (especially thanks to the contributions of Harriet & Bob Cates who have given me a new treasure trove of photos, newspaper clippings and other documents from their time with Sing-Out South and Up With People).
I am not sure exactly how you celebrate a birthday for a blog, except maybe to post our theme song as sung by the original national cast of Up With People with the Colwell Brothers.
It is, of course, UP WITH PEOPLE!
Sing Out South performing the song Up With People during a TV show taping at Nashville's public television station WDCN-TV, Channel 2 in the late fall of 1968.
