The highly anticipated "Rotary Goes to Work" is the feature of the week! Rotarians are eager to take part in these meetings which provide the opportunity to learn about a fellow Rotarian's profession and their workplace, just as Paul Harris and the other founding members of Rotary did in the first days of the organization.
Thank you to our gracious hosts and their places of work:
Lynn Castle and the Art Museum of Southeast Texas
Mary Poole and Baptist Hospitals of Southeast Texas
Cindy Jeanis and the Beaumont Police Department
Sharen Kirksey, Leonard Juncker and Designs by Sharen
Carly Broussard, Craig Escamilla, Henry Venta and the Lamar College of Business
Have a great experience.

PROGRAM REVIEW

The meeting of January 17 was cancelled due to the icy road conditions causing hazardous driving.
We will re-schedule the anticipated speaker, John Ross, Assistant United States Attorney, on Prisioner Reentry as soon as we are able.
