Southeast Texas Veteran’s Memorial Guide
Babe Zaharias Park
Southeast Texas has a both a rich history and a good record of creating ways to pass that history down to future generations.
The Golden Triangle is also very respectful of our Southeast Texas veterans.
The two come together at the Southeast Texas Veterans Memorial at Babe Zaharias Park. The memorial statue was donated by the employees of Conns who dedicated the memorial as a tribute to veterans of all wars from... Read More

Beaumont Senior Citizen Activities – Join the Choir at Best Years Senior Center
Music has a wonderful healing power, both for the listener and the singer.
Music also connects people. One song can bring up similar images for everyone who went to prom in 1958 (how about “At the Hop” by Danny and the Juniors) whether they were in Southeast Texas or Portland Oregon. One song can bring back all of the images of the civil rights movement (“People Get Ready” by the... Read More

Are you looking for a new Beaumont senior activity to share with friends?
Many Southeast Texas seniors really enjoy crochet.
Crochet is an art typically passed down from generation to generation.
Crochet is a process of creating fabric from yarn, thread, or other material strands using a crochet hook. The word is derived from the French word “crochet”, meaning hook. Crocheting, like knitting, consists of pulling loops through other loops, but additionally incorporates... Read More

Where did you start playing pool? For me it was a small town pool hall known as much for the frequent fights as for the quality of actual pool play.
I’m too old for that nonsense now. I prefer a nice, quiet, civilized place to play pool with other civilized adults. If that’s the kind of game you’re looking for, try the Best Year’s Center in Beaumont. They have a great pool room- just for Beaumont seniors.
The Pool Hall at Best Years Center will have a... Read More

On November 13, 1925, Spindletop produced its second major oil boom when the Yount-Lee Oil Company used new technology to drill on the flanks of Spindletop Hill.
As a result of this discovery – and the wealth that followed, Miles Yount and his wife, Pansy, soon became known as some of the most important breeders of horses in the United States.
Gladys City will celebrate this historically important second Spindletop boom with a historical lecture in the morning.
There will... Read More

Quilting has a rich history in Southeast Texas and across the American South.
Frequently quilts are designed for, lovingly crafted to commemorate, and given on special occasions and to memorialize significant family events. In our family, my wife’s grandmother has designed a special quilt for each of her grandchildren to celebrate their birth and again to celebrate their weddings.
For more than 30 years, the biennial Quilt National exhibition created by The Dairy Barn Arts Center... Read More

How do we get oil out of the ground?
We’ve all seen oil derricks before. Southeast Texas is littered with them- new and shiny, ancient and rusty, and everything in between.
My dad used to work on a drilling rig and has tried to explain to me what his role was. Still, I’ve never really understood how they work. It’s a shame, as they play such a rich role in our Golden Triangle economy.
Spindletop Gladys City, on the Lamar Beaumont Campus, is a great place to learn more... Read More

Lamar Football and Homecoming: Cardinals vs. McMurry
As SETXseniors, we grew up watching football. Some Southeast Texas seniors fondly remember the day of leather helmets and gifted players regularly playing both offense and defense.
When the temperatures dip below ninety degrees, we remember all of the glorious activities of youth- drifting a live mud minnow for fall flounder, following a spirited dog sniffing for quail, and watching football.
Football was gone from Lamar for... Read More
