During their regular meeting this past Wednesday, the Terrebonne Parish Council proclaimed October 28-29, 2024 as Louisiana Retired Teachers’ Association Days in Houma-Terrebonne.
This recognition is in honor of the Louisiana Retired Teachers’ Association holding their 2024 State Fall Meeting in Houma this October, with the theme “Laissez LRTA Rouler!”
Hosting the meeting in Terrebonne Parish will help promote the area and introduce it to a wide variety of retired teachers from around the state, including a 2-hour community lunch in downtown Houma for attendees to explore restaurants, museums, shops, and more. See more about the event here.
The proclamation reads as follows: “Whereas, Louisiana’s retired teachers have devoted their careers to the education and training of tens of thousands of Louisiana’s youth; and,
“Whereas, Louisiana’s retired teachers represent the profession which is given the responsibility of launching the careers of state and national leaders, and for laying the foundation for the welfare of all members of our society; and,
“Whereas, the Louisiana Retired Teachers Association (LRTA) acts as the voice of the retired education community, representing its interests by monitoring, protecting, and improving the benefits needed to secure dignity, independence, and quality of life; and,
“Whereas, the LRTA will be hosting their 2024 State Fall Meeting in Houma, Louisiana with the slogna, “Laissez LRTA Rouler!”; and,
“Whereas, Terrebonne Parish would like to recognize the LRTA and its membership for their ongoing investment and support for local teachers and local communities.
“Now, therefore be it resolved, that the Terrebonne Parish Council, on behalf of the Parish President Jason Bergeron, and the entire Terrebonne Parish Consolidated Government hereby proclaims the days of October 28-29, 2024 as Louisiana Retired Teachers’ Association Days, and that the LTRA State Fall Meeting attendees be welcomed and commended for their continuing dedication to their profession and to their communities while attending this year’s meeting.”
“We want to thank Mr. Clyde Hamner for getting this meeting in Houma, and we appreciate everything the parish is doing for us,” said two representatives from the LTRA who accepted the proclamation.
