Juan Jaime arrived Monday August 13 from Columbia. A few of us met him at the airport before the crack of dawn to greet him. He will be a regular at our meetings starting on August 28th. Say hello when you see him. We are working on a welcome party where everyone will have a chance to meet him in a more relaxed, less rushed setting.
He is settled in with his first host family, The Shipleys.
Remember to invite him to anything you and your family enjoy. We want him to be able to experience as much as he can while he is here.
We will need volunteers Sunday August 12 at Freeport Intermediate where we will greet 1000 secondary students and hand out backpacks and essentials to start back to school. I'll have a sign up sheet at the next meeting. This is a family friendly event, so please feel free to bring spouses and your kiddos. .png)

August 31, 2016 – Freeport, Texas - Vera Whitmarsh (center) takes the keys to her new Honda CRV from Brazosport Rotary representatives Diane Hill and Scott Glick. Whitmarsh held the winning raffle ticket during the 55th Annual Rotary Shrimp Boil held last month in Freeport. In the past, she admits to buying several tickets hoping to win the grand prize, but only bought one this year. And one was all it took!
Lake Jackson Honda is a key sponsor of the annual community fund-raiser and provided the Honda the top raffle prize as part of the charity raffle. In addition to Whitmarsh, Alan Hammond was a winner, taking home an Apple sport watch; Roy Yates won a Go Pro. Charlie Waguespack and Mike Cordes both won Fuji film insta share printers, while Shelley Moore held the winning ticket for the iPad Mini. Proceeds from the event, raffle and auctions all directly benefit Rotary sponsored projects in the Brazosport area.
