June 14th Program
Chester Moore - Port Arthur News Wildlife Editor
brought us this week's program. He talked about the fishing, hunting and wildlife photography available to our area. Describing a Rotary Club program I always say that you learn about things going on in your community that you would not know about if it were not for being a Rotarian. I have been glancing at Chester Moore's profile above his Port Arthur News column - how could you miss that profile with Stetson hat and chin whiskers - but never got any farther than that, my misfortune. After being exposed to Chester Moore for just a few minutes I plan to read his column as ofter as possible.
