Those were the days. We used to go to the Cap Center for comcerts, Shady Grove. DAR Constitution Hall, etc.

And Wolftrap, Ford's Theater, the Kennedy Center and Lisner Auditorium.

And when we were home from college on breaks and were of age, we used to go dancing at the Bayou in Georgetown. Those certainly were the days.

Wow....I didn't know Ft. Hunt had burned down. I remember going there for away games.

Forgot about Wolf Trap Farm Park- went to something there...

Somebody had a rotating stage- was that Shady Grove? Saw George Carlin there and it was hilarious as he kept trying to face the audience and his mike cord kept tangling.

Ah the days of my liberal youth. What an idiot I was.

Yeah like a year after I graduated someone torched the admin offices at Ft Hunt and it was done. Hayfield High, Woodson and TC Williams were in our league as I recall.

Springfield and Annandale were out of the Gunston District, IIRC.

Cheers to a simpler time!
