Don Linberger presents tribute to Leona Trantham Hayes

  • wcu_picturing-2845.jp2
  • This 1965 photograph, taken by Asheville Citizen-Times photographer Ewart McKinley Ball, Jr. (1918-1966), shows a tribute to Hubert Hayes honoring 16 years working with the Asheville Junior Chamber of Commerce. The tribute was presented to his wife, Leona Trantham Hayes by Don Linberger (President of the Asheville Jaycees) on behalf of the Asheville Junior Chamber of Commerce. Founder and director of the Mountain Youth Jamboree, Hubert H. Hayes (1901-1964) auditioned and directed youth to perform in folk dance, music, and folk and ballad singing. The jamboree was held in the Asheville City Auditorium (now known as Thomas Wolfe Auditorium) from 1948 to 1973, and Hayes’ wife, Leona Trantham Hayes (1913-1989) continued to direct the program after his death in 1964. Hubert Hayes was an author, playwright, and alumni of Duke University.
