The Historic Dunbar Schoolground Honor Roll Athletes, led by team members Bill Robinson and Errol Robinson, will be featured in song and testimony at the Dunbar-Faith Connection Gospel Fest gathering at 6 p.m. Oct. 24 at Faith Lutheran Church, 530 Quindaro, Kansas City, Kan.
Former students in Dunbar’s chorus, families and former Dunbar musicians or their representatives are asked to participate in a memorial photo signature ceremony for musicians Evelyn Caruthers, former Dunbar teacher and chorus leader, and Ruby Robinson, former Dunbar student and choir musician.
Dunbar closed in 1972; the Dunbar-Faith Connection is a volunteer group committed to preserving the memory and educational mission of Dunbar School.
The Historic Schoolground Athletes list was unveiled in 2008; their pictures and other Dunbar history are exhibited on two dedicated walls in Faith’s Fellowship Hall.
There is no charge for admission, an offering and patron donations will be accepted.
