No BIG Luncheon on July 13

July 7, 2020 by Bayou Industrial Group

The regularly scheduled July 13 Bayou Industrial Group luncheon date has been cancelled as we continue to make your health and safety our priority.

We are eager, however, to announce the resumption of in-person monthly luncheons as soon as that is possible.

In the meantime, the BIG Board of Directors appreciates that your membership investment in BIG includes an expectation of monthly luncheons. President Lori LeBlanc and Board members are exploring options to provide value to you, our treasured members, for the luncheons we have lost due to COVID-19.  We also continue to provide you with other important news and resources during this time.

We miss you and can’t wait to see everyone again!  Until then, please social distance, wear your mask, and take care of yourself and your family!

Bob Hensgens (R-Abbeville).  The bill keeps the state’s focus on enforcing state permits and ensures that 100% of any funds recovered under the enforcement guidelines of Louisiana’s State and Local Coastal Resources Management Act (SLCRMA) are spent directly on coastal restoration and hurricane protection as the Louisiana Legislature originally intended.
