In December 1973, Four Gonzaga parents headed to Baltimore to sell the Jesuit Provincial on their vision for the school's future. Almost 50 years later Gonzaga is celebrating it's Bicentennial continuing a 150 year run at that same iconic 19 Eye Street location. Without the success of the four horsemen, Gonzaga's story might be very different. In May, Brian visited in May with John Carmody '54, (who died July 16, 2021) and Tom Delaney '75, son of fellow horsemen, the late John Delaney '50. As the 37th Carmody - Lynn Open Golf tournament is upon us, God bless the Carmody family, and John's amazing legacy.

The 4 Horsemen  - John Carmody '54 Tom Delaney '75

On Friday April 1st, 2022, another group of Gonzaga students returned to Eye Street after making their first Kairos Retreat. That group joined 165 others in a fraternity of faith, that has now spanned 38 years.

This week we celebrate the power of the Holy Spirit with some Kairos Pioneers who share their memories of the beginnings of the retreat program that has become a cornerstone of faith formation at Jesuit and Catholic schools across the country.

Longtime member of the Gonzaga community, Mary Ellen Whitcomb was there at the beginning. She joins along with two of the earliest student leaders, John Goetcheus '85 and Pat O'Neil '85 to share their memories of the program. Special thanks to Dave Dugan '98 for technical assistance.

As the Gonzaga Spring Musical,Into The Woods, gives its final performances this weekend, S1E25 of the Echo Ever Proudly podcast is the second part of our Spring salute to the Gonzaga Theater.

Last week, we heard GDA Hall of Fame memories from cast members from the 1972 production of Damn Yankees. This week, the spotlight shifts to three women whose talents have helped the Gonzaga Dramatic Association reach new heights over the last two decades: Meghan Goldsmith, JZ Zaeske, and Sarah Frances Hope Williams. 

All three women have added their unique talents, perspective, and leadership, to raise the bar for the drama students on Eye Street. Longtime Gonzaga faculty member, as well as GDA Club moderator, Paul Buckley '86 joins the conversation and shares his appreciation for how these three women (among other recent additions to the program) have improved the student theater experience on Eye Street.

What was each woman's path to Gonzaga? What moments and performances stand out from their favorite shows? And why are active parents so important to the GDA?

GDA - Women Raising The Bar

The Gonzaga Dramatic Association Spring Musical, Into The Woods opens with shows this weekend and next. Before Saturday's performance (Mar12) the GDA Hall of Fame ceremony will take place with the induction of Howard Dent '65, and the casts and crews from the 1979 production of Guys and Dolls,and the 2002 production of 42nd Street.

In S1E24, we celebrate the Gonzaga theater and hear the memories of previous Hall of Famers: Katie Fleury Ryan (Visitation '72), Cathy Cronin (Academy of Notre Dame '72) and Gonzaga’s own Dan Warren '72.

Cathy also was one of the first women from the Academy of Notre Dame to take classes at Gonzaga (Fr. Woodward and Fr. Wheeler). Great stories, endearing moments, and a palpable friendships forged on Eye Street over 50 years ago.

Anyone who has ever been on the Warman Stage, or part of the crew, will love these stories. And if your daughters are considering auditioning for future roles at Gonzaga, I think they'll find great messages inside S1E24.
