Southeast Texas, March 7, 2010: – SETXsocialcenter.com, a free calendar for all events in Southeast Texas, complementary thanks to Tim and Cody Bauer with Texas Financial in Winnie, Texas, is pleased to announce the events of its member organizations for the week of March 7, 2010.
Lamar University is on spring break this week and so are some area private schools. As a result the social calendar is a little slower than the average Southeast Texas week but there is a lot of training and workshops going on from first aid training to health seminars to business planning. Of course, a few baseball games are sprinkled into the mix, too.
