Before the “Celebrity models” could strut their stuff, The Arc of Greater Beaumont honored four community leaders for their outstanding achievements and dedication. The honorees included J. Coffy Pieternelle M.D. (Southeast Texas OB/GYN) , Becky Ames ( Mayor of Beaumont), Cindy Bloodsworth ( One of the founding members of the Arc of Greater Beaumont), and Kirksey’s Sprint Printing. Sara Leonard and Matthew Bloodsworth were also honored with the Arc Excellence in Leadership & Self Advocacy Award. Congratulations to all Honorees.

As the lights went down, the music was turned up and the fabulous Celebrity Style Show began! The celebrity models are Arc members and wore sponsored outfits from Dillard’s and Macy’s. Everyone really worked the runway, but I must say the guys really got into it! Once again I have to brag on the Arc of Greater Beaumont for putting on such a beautiful and fun event. I had the time of my life. Thank you so much for including me and for the wonderful memories that I took home!
