The Gentlemen’s Cooking Classic has hosted more than seventy chefs and thousands of patrons in the past and by far is the Foundation’s most successful fundraising event.

    CC 3827 12 29 14 Council Proceedings of the City of Shreveport, Louisiana December 22, 2014 The regular meeting of the City Council of the City of Shreveport, State of Louisiana was called to order by Chairman Joe Shyne at 3:05 p.m., Monday, December 22, 2014, in the Government Chambers in Government Plaza (505 Travis Street). Invocation was given by Councilman Corbin. The Pledge of Allegiance was led by Councilman S. Jenkins. Councilman Shyne: Okay, let me make this statement. Let’s remember, this is a City Council meeting, not a Mayor’s meeting. Let me make that again, this is a City Council Meeting, not a Mayor’s meeting. And I want the officers to understand, if anybody comes up and they’re being disrespectful or out of order, if you all can’t sit ‘em down because the Mayor says no, then we’re going to call the Sheriff and let them sit them down or remove ‘em from the Chamber. We want to make sure that we don’t have the kind of meeting that we had three weeks ago. I found out this was on Youtube, I had people calling me from San Francisco, from Dallas, from Houston, saying, ‘Joe, what’s going on in Shreveport? Why do you all have all this at a City Council Meeting? Can’t you control ‘em?’ So the only thing I could say was just yes. It makes us looks bad, because this goes out all over the country. Anybody who wants to say anything, we’ll let you come up, but please do it in a professional manner.
