Scene Around Town: LEAP Global Missions and Turtle Creek Association

As Society Editor for the Katy Trail Weekly I oversee the publication's Scene Around Town feature, which shines a spotlight on nonprofit and community events each week. In this week’s August 4 issue, I was pleased to spotlight photos featuring highlights from LEAP Global Missions 2023 Gala. Themed "On The Road Again", the annual gala was recently held at Dallas Country Club. Funds raised will go to enhance and enrich the lives of people around the world by providing free specialized medical and surgical services inspired by the love of Christ. Also featured were scenes from the Azalea Luncheon benefiting the Turtle Creek Association. Held at the Rosewood Mansion, guests enjoyed a gourmet three-course luncheon and fashion presentation from lo0cal designer, Betty Reiter. Funds raised will assist the Turtle Creek Association in the preservation, enhancement, and protection of Turtle Creek.
