Summary
Step back to September 1966—a whirlwind month packed with history, culture, and community. From Colonel Sanders gracing the grand opening of the first KFC in Donelson to Howard Baker Jr. launching his Senate campaign at the Ryman, it was a time of bold moves and big moments. New buildings rose, including the First American National Bank branch, while major events like the Tennessee Walking Horse Celebration and the State Fair brought crowds for mule pulls and dolphin shows. Fashion shows dazzled, TV’s “T.H.E. Cat” debuted at a glamorous gala, and spiritual life thrived with Rosh Hashanah services and a Labor Day prayer for highway safety. Even the 101st Airborne Division marked its 10th anniversary—showing a city alive with civic pride, cultural flair, and deep-rooted traditions.
