Last Saturday was the first “St. Tammany Business Night” at the Zephyrs Stadium, with more to follow. The Covington Business Association represented Covington with a table on the concourse, giving away drawstring bags full of flyers, brochures, menus, pamphlets and business cards to promote CBA members and the City of Covington in general.
Mayor Cooper started off the night with the first pitch – a highly anticipated moment. According to his wife, Catherine Cooper, the Mayor participated in the minor leagues as a young man. What a great opportunity to get back out on the baseball field!
St. Tammany was represented again for the National Anthem, which was sung by Katy O’Connell, the daughter of local Playmakers Theater’s president Ellen O’Connell. Katy has had many performances of note, such as singing for Tulane and other ball games.
