BREC caters to community with slew of activities for all ages and interests BY DARLENE DENSTORFF
ddenstorff@theadvocate.com Gloria LeBlanc spent the last Wednesday of the year the same way she spends most Wednesdays. She had her morning cup of coffee, exercised with around 40 of her friends and played board games at BREC Independence Park with members of the Busy Bodies. It’s a routine LeBlanc recommends for other seniors in the Baton Rouge area. Sheila Smith, the center’s head of adult leisure programs, said she stays busy organizing several senior programs for folks like LeBlanc who want to stay active. She started her day supervising the assembly of new table tennis equipment. In a room at the back of the park’s community center, Smith pointed to a photo of the Busy Bodies group. “Don’t they look like they’re having fun?” Smith said, adding that the exercise program stresses low-impact movement for cardiovascular conditioning. Smith said having fun while you exercise is a key to keeping fitness in your routine. Smith, 82, who has worked with BREC for 12 years, said she enjoys meeting new people and helping folks stay active. The average age of the Busy Bodies members is 80. Cheryl Michelet, director of communications for BREC, said programs like the senior exercise group and a popular Tea Dance held every week at BREC’s main building on Florida Boulevard provide seniors a way to stay active. The Tea Dance, which gets its name from its afternoon start, draws a crowd of around 100 each week who enjoy refreshments and dancing. Musicians perform “high energy” music, Smith said, adding that the seniors

BREC Busy Bodies members Gloria LeBlanc, Sallie Segura and Janet Davis play a game of Scrabble Dec. 30 at Independence Park Community Center. The women get together at least three times a week for exercise, snacks and board games. enjoy fast-paced dances and “not that slow stuff.” The dance has been around for more than 30 years and has seen a few marriages and courtships blossom. Despite that longevity, many in Baton Rouge don’t know about the senior programs provided at Independence Park and other parks around the parish. Michelet said a series of community meetings held in the last two years highlighted BREC’s current program and revealed new programs residents want to see developed. She said BREC’s Imagine Your Parks Plan meetings gave residents a chance
to provide comments on the future of BREC parks. “We’re always looking for new trends … and trying to respond to meet interests” of the residents, she said. Renovation projects have started at several parks, and residents should see improvements all around town. Recent renovations at the Florida Boulevard facility included updates to its upper deck area. Batting cages and workout areas were added so children and adults can exercise together. The area also features pingpong, vidäSee BREC, page 3G

Museum uses ghostly tales to teach history of Old State Capitol BY REBECCA DOCTER Special to The Advocate
One night while working in the basement of the Old State Capitol, Carl Smith said, he was exiting a bathroom stall when the door flew off the hinges and smacked into him, leaving him out of breath. Smith said the door’s hinges are designed to open in the opposite direction. He believes he was attacked. Perhaps by a ghost. “That’s the worst thing that ever happened to me, in there,” Smith said. A maintenance supervisor, Smith has worked at the Old State Capitol for the last eight years. During his time in the 168-year-old building, he’s had his fair share of scares. Smith had a paranormal experience before he worked at the Old State Capitol and said he’s not sure who the ghost might be, if that’s what it was. The bathroom incident is the only physical paranormal experience Smith said he’s ever had on the Old State Capitol grounds, but that doesn’t mean he hasn’t come in contact with other ghostly spirits he claims are roaming the halls. There’s a hot spot — a place with a sign of ghost activity — in the basement, which functioned as a prison and hospital during the Civil War, Smith said. He’s heard the click-clack of shoes roaming across the upper floors. Large, heavy doors sometimes open and shut on their own. The casts of ghost-hunting TV shows have made their way through the building’s hallowed halls, each reporting something different. Opened in 1847, the Louisiana Old State Capitol has stood the test of time, and many know the historical events that occurred, such as the impeachment proceedings for former Gov. Huey P. Long. Not many, however, know Confederate Gov. Henry Watkins Allen is buried in the building’s lawn. Museum curator Lauren Davis said after the Civil War, Allen fled to Mexico, as did many other members of the Confederacy. He died in 1866, and his body eventually was moved to Lafayette Cemetery in New Orleans. From there, it was exhumed and taken to the grounds of the Old State Capitol. His plot is designated with a marker. äSee CAPITOL, page 3G

know how the story got started, but it’s possible Couvillion didn’t even die in the building. She said most signs point to him dying elsewhere. “All I ever have found is that there’s no proof that he ever died here. It seems like he just died at home, probably of a heart attack,” Davis said. Just because Couvillion probably didn’t die in the Old State Capitol doesn’t mean others didn’t perish on the grounds. Davis said several Civil War battles took place around the grounds of the Old State Capitol in what is now downtown Baton Rouge. “Did people die in this area?
Yes. This building has been here since 1849, so I’m sure there are some secrets on these grounds somewhere,” Davis said. One of those “secrets” is that of Sarah Morgan, a spirit the museum staff created to tell the story of the Old State Capitol’s history to tour groups. In the exhibit, “Ghost of the Castle,” Morgan takes visitors through the Capitol’s many hardships, from the Civil War era to present day. While Morgan is based on a real person of the same name, the haunting was created for the enjoyment of museumgoers. Whatever’s in the basement might be another story.

O’Neill family celebrates Christmas
For the past 35 years or so, Jo E. O’Neill has hosted a Christmas Eve celebration reminiscent of the tailgate parties after LSU games that her parents, Joe and Josie Ragusa, enjoyed with their friends and family. Josie Ragusa was known for her homemade biscuits at the party. Her best friend, Isaure Manda, brought the Manda’s sausage and somebody would scramble eggs. This tradition has continued among the Ragusa children, O’Neill said in a news release. The family gathers on Christmas Eve to enjoy the same meal, where Jo E. now prepares the biscuits. After the food, the family retires to the living room to sing Christmas carols. Son Raph O’Neill provides the music for the sing-along. Son-in-law Brendan Linehan is shown at this year’s celebration with one of his triplet sons, along with nephew Steven Goff, granddaughter Audrey Lemoine, and grandsons of Stanley Triche.
