December 1, 2016 Meeting

columns_iii

The Corpus Christi Caller-Times each week features a column on South Texas history by Murphy Givens. These articles on people, places and events of years gone by are eagerly awaited each Wednesday. Columns III is the third compilation of such articles, with columns from 2014 and 2015 included in this volume. They tell of adventurers, outlaws, settlers, cowboys, ranchers and pioneers who came to the Coastal Bend of Texas, struggling against nature and their fellow man to make their homes and livelihoods. This collection of 102 newspaper columns includes 164 photographs and maps, source notes and a full index.

Fellow Rotarian Jim Moloney will join Murphy Givens during our luncheon program presentation.  They will also be available to sign copies of Columns III.

Bring a friend to Thursday’s meeting and perhaps purchase a gift for someone on your list!

Rotary Club of Corpus Christi is with Chris Horn.
Rotary Club of Corpus Christi
Our Rotary Club of Corpus Christi members rolled up their sleeves for a meaningful roundtable discussion centered on this year's theme, Love Does. Together, we reflected on what makes our club special, explored ways to strengthen member connections, and identified practical steps we can take to make an even greater impact.Some of the biggest takeaways from the conversation included:💙 Building stronger connections by personally reaching out to new, returning, and non-attending members.🤝 Preserving the traditions that define our club while embracing new ideas for growth and engagement.⭐ Turning ideas into action with simple, achievable goals over the next 30 days.❤️ Remembering that the heart of Rotary is people—serving together, welcoming others, and creating a place where everyone belongs.The conversations don't end here—they're just the beginning. Together, we'll continue putting Love Does into action as we strengthen our club and our community.We also had the privilege of recognizing Chris Horn as our 2025–2026 New Member of the Year!
