Newsletters, 1968 - 1998
Scope and Contents
This collection documents the activities of the Dulac Community Center (Dulac, La.). It includes administrative reports, institutional histories, newspaper clippings and magazine articles, photographs, printed items and newsletters, property records, information about directors and employees, and four photograph albums.
The four photograph albums have been disassembled due to preservation concerns. Their contents have been removed from the albums and placed in folders retaining their original order. Photograph albums 1, 2, and 3 appear to include material that has been collected and reassembled at different points in time. Included is an index corresponding to numbered photographs from albums 1, 2 and 3, identifying people, places, and activities. Common themes throughout the albums include images depicting kindergarten classes, children’s Sunday School, Clanton Chapel Methodist Church (Dulac, La.), and children participating in activities such as fishing and boating, dancing, camping, and a zoo visit. Album 1 consists of photographs numbered 1-59; it also includes images depicting a fashion show and a freeze at Bayou Dulac and Grand Caillou. Album 2 consists of photographs numbered 60-91. Album 3 consists of photographs numbered 92-163; it also includes images depicting the aftermath of Hurricane Audrey in 1957, an eighth grade graduation, Boy Scouts, student headshots, plans and photographs of the Brunson Library, and newspaper clippings about the Dulac Community Center. Album 4 consists of material assembled by an employee perhaps named Cheryl during her time at the Dulac Community Center from 1968-1969; it includes images depicting Christmas and Girl Scout activities, student headshots, the Women’s Society of Christian Service, and members of the Dulac Community Center staff.
