Michael Allen and Adrian Travis will be French Camp's August 13 Historical Highlight speakers and will also provide special music.
They are both 1970 FCA graduates and have lots of memories and stories from their years together.
The topic is "REALLYTIRED - I Mean Retired!"
Michael moved to FCA in the summer of 1957 with his parents Sam and Polly Allen and began first grade the following school year. He graduated in 1970; his family moved from FCA the summer of 74. Michael went to college for 2 1/2 years and later got a job with the Mississippi Dept. of Transportation where he worked for 43 years. He is now retired and lives in Terry, MS with his wife Carrie and their "fur babies."
Adrian went to FCA in 1966 at the age of 14 and graduated in 1970. He attended Wood Jr. College and Belhaven College. He worked at FCA as a house parent (1980-1985) and at Palmer Home for Children in Columbus (1990-1995). Most of his non-ministry jobs have been in the field of office technology sales. He and his wife Andrea live in Jackson, Mississippi where he is currently employed by Advantage Business Systems as a Technology Provider.
The September 13 Historical Highlight speaker will be Darron Byrd who attended FCA in 1986-87.
