Neighborhood resident Ryan Rommel, one of the most active members of the LH Exchange Club during the past few years, has received a big honor from the Texas-Louisiana District of Exchange Clubs: He’s the 2008 Exchangite of the Year, according to the news forwarded by Don Lee of the LH club. District president Bob Johnston, another LH Exchange Club member, reported to Don that the local club also received a number of awards for its contributions to Lake Highlands. In fact, one of the club’s biggest events is coming up shortly: sponsorship of the annual 4th of July parade, which ends with a neighborhood party at the LH Recreation Center. Club membership is open to anyone interested in community service and willing to attend the club’s 7 a.m. Friday meetings.
