Recognition Ceremony to be Held Friday, January 28th

NATCHITOCHES – A recognition ceremony will be held on Friday, January 28th to honor last year’s group of Natchitoches Treasures. The Natchitoches Treasures are an elite group of Natchitoches residents of retirement age who have made a lasting contribution to the community through their generosity, service, volunteerism and spirit.

The recognition ceremony will be held on Friday, January 28th, at 11:00 a.m. at the Natchitoches Events Center, located at 750 Second Street. Light refreshments will be served and the public and the media are invited to attend.

The 2021 Natchitoches Treasures were selected by a committee of those who have previously been named as a Natchitoches Treasure. Natchitoches Treasures have been selected each year since 2008. The treasures are selected from nominations received from members of the community.

The 2021 Natchitoches Treasures are Mr. Clifford Blake Jr., Mrs. Beulah Coutee, Dr. Jerry Glynn Ferguson, Mr. Stan Nash, and Mr. Thomas E. Roque.

The recognition ceremony will highlight the contributions made to the City of Natchitoches and the community by each newly elected Treasure, as well as pay tribute to those individuals named as Natchitoches Treasures in years past.
