March 21, 2019 meeting

Rehtmeyer, Carol

Carol Rehtmeyer, President and CEO of the Corpus Christi Museum of Science and History, will be our program speaker on Thursday.  Ms. Rehtmeyer was recruited to serve as the Executive Director of the Corpus Christi Museum of Science & History where she remained as its Director until mid April 2016.  After a successful bid by the Friends of the Corpus Christi Museum to become its managing organization, she returned to the museum as its President and CEO October 1, 2018 making this the first time in the 63-year history of the museum for it to be run by a not-for- profit.

The Museum’s 40,000 square feet of history and science exhibits are a collection of carefully selected representations that are unique to our culture and our surroundings. The historical collections showcase 500 years of South Texas history. From historic shipwrecks of early explorers to decorative arts from area families, these exhibits give you an up close look at the life and the people of our region.

Thursday's meeting reminded us of the extraordinary knowledge and experience within the Rotary Club of Corpus Christi @followers.Moderated by Jonathan Williams, our interactive program brought together Paul Broderson, Justin Butts, Jim Mailhes, and Kathleen Clark for a practical conversation about estate planning, financial security, long-term care, family communication, funeral preplanning, and wellness.Members continued the conversation with table leaders Edgar Munoz, Jarrod Bolliger, Ernest de la Garza, Jessica Prukop, John Holloway, Suzel Mendieta, and Kathleen Clark—asking questions, sharing experiences, and considering steps they can take now to protect themselves and their families.Preparation is an act of care. Conversations like these can prevent unnecessary complications and provide greater peace of mind before a crisis occurs.Thank you to Jonathan, our panelists, table leaders, and everyone who participated. We also thank Bea Hanson for the invocation, Mary McQueen for leading the song and pledges, Kyoko Amano for the Four-Way Test and introductions, and Steve Black for his Coastal Bend HUB update.This is the quiet power of Rotary: members sharing their knowledge and compassion to help one another and strengthen our community.#RotaryClubOfCorpusChristi #ServiceAboveSelf #PeopleOfAction ...
