  • American Queen®
    2020 VOYAGES american queen® SAVE UP TO $800 PER STATEROOM. SEE PAGE 35 FOR DETAILS. ANNIVERSARY he largest, most opulent steamboat in the world was born from a vision to design a grand paddlewheeler that would rival any on the river. From each Tthoughtful detail to modern upgrades, the American Queen is an authentic icon of the rivers on which she travels. She is a true engineering marvel that combines steam and diesel power to create a truly unique river cruising experience. Her construction began in 1994 at McDermott Shipyard in Louisiana. Years of planning culminated in the christening of this elegant steamboat on June 2, 1995. After shifting through several owners, the American Queen found herself in the hands of the United States Maritime Administration (MARAD) in Beaumont, Texas. Knowing that this American icon should be enjoyed by the entire world, John Waggoner, president and CEO of HMS Global Maritime, took on the herculean task of purchasing the paddlewheeler and putting her back in service on the Mississippi, Ohio, Tennessee and Cumberland Rivers. 2 AMERICAN QUEEN 25TH ANNIVERSARY (888) 749-5280 1995-2020 On April 26, 2012, she was re-christened in Memphis, Tennessee, by her new godmother, Priscilla Presley. A new era of modern steamboating and river cruising had begun. Since that time, American Queen Steamboat Company has made updates to the boat with a focus on the preservation of the antiquity, sentiment and vision of her original builders and guests. A lady so grand should have a celebration to match! We invite you to join us throughout 2020 for an anniversary year that is sure to provide memorable experiences for all who sail upon her.

  • The Celebration Bicentennial Louisiana Supreme Court
    The Celebration of the Bicentennial of the Louisiana Supreme Court Ceremonies The Louisiana Supreme Court celebrated its 200th anniversary on March 1, 2013. As a special session of court, the Louisiana Supreme Court justices presided over the Bicentennial ceremony, which commemorated the Court’s two centuries of legal heritage. The ceremony took place at the Louisiana Supreme Court’s courtroom at 400 Royal Street in New Orleans. The event was free and open to the public, with the option of one hour of CLE accreditation for Louisiana attorneys. Justice Greg G. Guidry chaired the Court’s Bicentennial Committee, which was in charge of planning the ceremony. Louisiana Lieutenant Governor Jay Dardenne was the master of ceremonies. After Lieutenant Governor Dardenne’s opening address, the Washington Artillery presented the colors, which was followed by the Pledge of Allegiance, led by Donna D. Fraiche, President of the Supreme Court of Louisiana Historical Society. Bishop Shelton J. Fabre gave the invocation, and Chief Justice Bernette J. Johnson delivered welcoming remarks to the attendees. Four speakers discussed various aspects of the Court’s history, including A Walk Through the Streets of New Orleans at the Time of the Court’s Foundation, by Tulane Professor Richard Campanella; The Civilian Aspects of Louisiana Law, by LSU Law Professor John Randall Trahan; The Role of the Louisiana Supreme Court in the Early Civil Rights Movement, by UNO Emeritus Professor Raphael Cassimere, Jr.; and The History of the Louisiana Supreme Court, by UNO Emeritus Distinguished Professor of History and Bicentennial Court Historian Warren M.

A major remodel in 1909–1910 enlarged the wings of the building and replaced the building’s original dome with a more elongated one. New Hampshire State House, 107 North Main Street, Concord, NH 03303 Year completed**: 1819 Architectural style: Greek Revival FYI: The stately eagle installed on top of the New Hampshire State House’s dome may look gold, but it’s actually brass. The original was removed for preservation and is on display at the New Hampshire Historical Society. A new, gold-leafed eagle was put in its place around 1969. Vermont State House, 115 State Street, Montpelier, VT 05633 Year completed**: 1859 Architectural style: Renaissance Revival FYI: The senate chamber still has its original furnishings, plus working gas lamps, and a “gasolier”—a gaslight chandelier that was rediscovered elsewhere in 1979, refurbished, and reinstalled in the chamber. New York State Capitol, State St. and Washington Ave, Albany, NY 12224 Year completed**: 1899 Architectural style: Italian Renaissance/French Renaissance/Romanesque FYI: The Western staircase inside New York’s capitol has been dubbed the “Million Dollar Staircase,” because it cost more than a million dollars to build—in the late-1800s, no less.

Only four of the rigs had not made it to camp. The morning was clear but soon the skies opened up and it poured, somewhere between 3-4 inches of rain. A small microburst hit shortly after David and Etta Barr arrived. The wind took Jim and Sandi Anderson’s over- the- door awning and tossed it into the street. David and Etta lost the shroud for the front AC unit. We met at the restaurant at the park at 4:00 for our welcome meeting and dinner. We learned three items about every person there and then tried to determine which was the lie. With some people it was easy as their spouses' hands went up as soon as the lie was told!!!! Once we determined who the biggest liars were, we had a great dinner, had a short meeting and got our goodie bags and jackets.

  • Public Policy Agenda 2018
    PUBLIC POLICY AGENDA 2018 A Message from the One Acadiana Region Since 1A’s founding in 2015, our organization has worked to energetically advance its long-standing, ambitious mission: to be the leading force in the improvement of the business environment, economic health, and development of Acadiana. Our organization comprises colleagues, neighbors, and business associates – professionals who’ve made a personal commitment to strengthening Acadiana’s economic competitiveness. Our nine-parish region includes: Acadia, Evangeline, Iberia, Jeff Davis, Lafayette, St. Landry, St. Martin, EVANGELINE St. Mary, and Vermilion parishes. ST. LANDRY JEFFERSON ACADIA DAVIS ST. MARTIN LAFAYETTE We call ourselves One Acadiana IBERIA because we believe it takes a united VERMILION region to create the best region. ST. MARY In this Public Policy Agenda, we comprehensively outline our positions on policy issues we regard as vital to the success and prosperity of the Acadiana Region, focusing on infrastructure, workforce development, public education, economic development, and urban revitalization and development, with a little “lagniappe” (something extra) for good measure. We view this agenda as a guide in our continued work to address Acadiana’s most pressing challenges. We could not effectively make progress on our public policy initiatives without the invaluable partnerships we share with Acadiana’s local economic developers and chambers of commerce; business-led organizations across Louisiana; and other non-profit and governmental entities. We also have tremendous appreciation for the cooperative spirit of our relationships with Acadiana’s elected officials at all levels of government. Through these collaborations, One Acadiana is better able to forge alliances and leverage resources that contribute to the growth of our region.
