The Red Stick, Frank Hayden - Baton Rouge, LA.

            Baton Rouge is French for Red Stick. The Choctaw and Bayou Goula Indians used a Red Stick to mark hunting boundaries. When the French Explorers came through the area around 1700 they called the place "Le Baton Rouge" because of the Red Stick boundry marker. Hence the city got its name. The sculpture is 36 feet high, very tall and is in fine condition. Dedication plaque is located next to piece with names of city and university officials in the 1976 time era. Located next to Pelican, another piece by the late Frank Hayden, who was a Southern University faculty member from 1961 until his death in 1988.
