Boef River Chapter, DAR, met Monday, March 20, 2017 in the Richland Parish Library with Carlette Cooper as the hostess.
Members and guest enjoyed delicious refreshments piror to the program.
Regent Angela Hales called the meeting to order and introduced Wyatt Lobrano, district director for Congressman Ralph Abraham.
The speaker gave a summer of his background which spans 35 years in government service.
He is ver qualified to perform the duties of our area.
One statement made was that none of Abraham’s staff are politicians, just very concerned citizens.
There are so many problems and events going on in our world today. Support for President Donald Trump is strong because his plans and values are primarily ours in the South.
This is an interesting time to be involved and promote important issues for our country.
Lobrano is very capable in doing this job and stated, “We do not have to agree with people but we do have to get along.”
One of the discussions was surveillance. Nothing is really private anymore. This is good and bad. People need to know and want to know the direction our country is going in.
Richland Parish can be very proud of those in office and their service. this was a special program and very informative. We hope to have him come again.
A business session followed.
Regent Angela Hales reported she attended the 108th Louisiana Society DAR conference in New Orleans.
