Pat Ogden, has been selected as a RSVP Volunteer of the Year runner-up. She volunteers at Groesbeck Senior Center and has 700 hours recorded at the center. Glenda O’Neal, who nominated Ogden and is her supervisor, said Ogden takes care of many details and does a huge amount of service for others, while expecting nothing. Susan Copeland, RSVP Program Director said “Pat is a perfect example of a selfless hero. She gives her time freely to help others and expects nothing but a smile in return.”
The 25th Annual Groesbeck Lions Club Car Show was a big success with a total of 52 entries. Lots of new cars, a good show up of community support, and participants from all over Central and North Texas.
Old Fort Parker was the setting for movie night Friday evening, featuring The Searchers, with John Wayne.
