National Night Out


New police chief Tandy Carter (2nd from left in this pic) , his officers and Belinda Gergle join The Next Door Drummers at Melrose Park.
My neighborhood and sangban Tammy's too. It really is a great area to live in.
Love playing in the hood.

Lots of participation. It was fun!


Our drum group now goes by Next Door Drummers but there are mixed feelings about it. So we've been thinking about new names....
How bout:

Drumming with Cops
Drumming with Cops and Council

Ku Ku

Drum Skulls

or Ku Ku and The Drum Skulls

I think Drum Skulls is pretty good although I think Next Door Drummers really fits us well right now.

BMW Performance Track

I had the good fortune to videotape some kids from Camp Success on a field trip to the BMW Plant and Performance Track.
What a BLAST!
We did some "drifting".

Aunt Sara Lee & Kornegay Memories

My Aunt Sara Lee died recently and I traveled to Seattle for her memorial. Sara Lee was my dad's big sister. He has 4 sisters, Sara Lee, Elizabeth, Doris and Iris and brother Lloyd. The Kornegay clan grew up in Bennettsville, SC but Sara Lee spent most of her adult life in Seattle along with her children, grandchildren and great grand children.
Loved her!
She was one of the most vivacious women I've known. Always making sure to get the family together and making sure we all had a good time.

This video is a compilation of some old film my dad and others shot that I just had transfered to DVD.
It begins with a clip of my mom & dad's wedding.
Sarah Lee is in the pink hat in some of the beach pictures.

We would all go to Myrtle beach when I was very young and I am hoping to keep that tradition alive of going to a SC beach and being with my family so far away.

Cousin Lauren Jo was so gracious to host me and Aunt Iris at her beautiful place.
