Most of us do not remember what it was like to have Barbecue served on the old ball field, which is where Forrest Hall is now located. But thanks to Sharon Sanderson director of alumni relations and her team, today’s alumni know how much fun it is to have barbecue served on the common area in the center of campus! The atmosphere is wonderful. Older alumni will remember what it was like to hear Dr. Forrest and Kelly Barnes calling everyone together for prayer and then to line up to eat. This short film shows what Homecoming was like at TFC when these two men were alive.
