The Beaumont Community Players’ production of “Annie” opened in the
Mamie McFaddin Ward Auditorium at the Betty Greenberg Center for
Performing Arts. A cast and crew of more than fifty accompanied by an
orchestra present the iconic musical about little Orphan Annie and her
friends. Every member of your family will enjoy this optimistic, happy
show. Come cheer Annie as she outwits the villains and finds her forever
home. Paula Bothe directs with Musical Direction by Garrett DeLacerda.
Nelda Jones is Assistant Director, Maci McFarlin choreographed and
Kerry Rice conducts. Technical Director for BCP is Jerry McMillan. For
reservations and information call 409-833-4664 or go on line to

Annie (played by Corinne Renick) and Daddy Warbucks (played by Cory
Winkler) will provide a preview of the show at our Wednesday,
December 4th, meeting. The show's Director, Paula Bothe, will
introduce her friends.
Ever wish YOU had the opportunity to ring the opening bell at the meeting?
For a donation of $25 to the Beaumont Rotary Foundation, you will be allowed to do just that. You will be called up to ring the bell to start the meeting.
When he rings the bell to conclude the meeting, President Chad Blanchard will match your donation with another $25 donation to the Beaumont Rotary Foundation!
Elections to fill 4 seats to be vacated on the Rotary Club Board of Directors and one seat on the Foundation Board of Trustees will take place on Wednesday, December 11, 2013, at the usual weekly Rotary meeting.
You must be present to cast a ballot; no mail in submissions will be allowed. A sample ballot is available through the link below (click on the photo) for your study and consideration.

Ring! Ding! Can you hear that ol' familiar sound? Yes, it is time to get in the holiday mood as we begin plans to help with the Salvation Army Kettle drive. Past President David Locke, Chairman, asks that you consider giving one hour of your time on Saturday, December 14 to this effort.
It is the annual H-E-B "Feast of Sharing" Holiday dinner on Friday, December 6 and a great opportunity for service to the community by Rotarians. Volunteers are needed from 5:30-7:00 p.m. Sign up quickly using the link below if you can help or call the office at 409-842-1913. (Click on image or link below image.)
TEE SHIRTS FOR NICARAGUA A group of Angelina College Rotaractors visited Nicaragua this summer and came back with a simple yet profound idea to help Nicaraguan mothers and the children of the dump. A tee shirt can be cut front and back, hemmed and turned into a diaper.
Nicaraguan youths are trained to operate foot pedal powered
sewing machines so the cutting and hemming are taken care of locally. This becomes a win-win situation for them, the children earn income and Nicaraguan mothers have access to inexpensive diapers.
Where does the supply of tee shirts come from? From you and me! The shirt can be colored, have a design on it or be plain white. So clean out your closet and bring a bag or stack of shirts to any Rotary meeting or to the Rotary Office. We will store them and bring all collected to the central collection at District Conference in April. Thanks go to Mr. Frank Huezo of Greenworld Imports who has agreed to ship the donations to Nicaragua.
Let your children and grandchildren know about this effort. Schools and church organizations alike have gotten excited about the opportunity to help. The response has been exciting, and now it's your turn to get busy and spread the word while you gather your own contribution!
