The August Board of Directors Meeting of the Deep East Texas Council of Governments (DETCOG) will hold their meeting on Thursday, Aug. 21, a week earlier than originally announced. The board’s meeting date was changed due to a conflict with a conference in Austin, which judges and a commissioner will attend. The board will meet at the United Methodist Church in Groveton. A luncheon will be served at noon, with the board meeting to follow. DETCOG President Wes Suiter, has extended an invitation to the meeting to all interested parties.
