I like to spend time with my family and friends, and since I have 4 children and 10 grandchildren, and many friends, there is never a dull moment. We play games, have quality time together, go to Church together, see Christian movies together - scrapbook and have a lovin' good time.
I am all for more of Jesus, He is my rock, my strength, my best friend, Savior and Lord. He has rescued me many times from the enemy's strongholds, always been there when I needed him, and led me through open doors in my life that have mega rewards and joy. One day I will see him face to face and I'll spend eternity with him.
I love sharing my faith and the life that is in Christ Jesus with girls and guys at a local Pregnancy Center where I work. Many lives have been spared because of the saving grace of the gospel of Christ.
With the power of God's Holy Spirit, wisdom in health & nutrition, and exercise, I pray that God gives me many years to come in order to spread His Kingdom to whoever He sends my way.
In September 1954, The American Statesman started a column called "Tri-High Scoop". A student from each high school wrote about the happenings at their school and then it was published in the Sunday paper. Each school had a "catchy" name, Austin was Maroon Musings, McCallum was 'Callum Clues and Travis was Travis Drawl. Enjoy reading about the days when you were at Travis.
Travis Drawl By Joy Toungate April 19, 1959
Try outs for majorette and drum major were held. Kenneth Southwell will be the drum major next year.
Next year's head majorette will be Zelma Tyree, a girl new to Travis this semester.

Porter student, was also chosen to be a majorette for next year.

Mrs. Robert Morrison, out-going president of the Auxiliary, will be co-sponsor of the club at Travis next year.
