June 11-13  *  Tyler, Texas

     Thirty Texas educators reversed roles last week, immersing themselves in the land surveying profession at the feet of TSPS members and instructors from Tyler Junior College. The 2nd Annual Texas Educators' Retreat was a rousing success, according to attendee evaluations and the comments of organizers and others involved. Watch for the June Metes and Bounds later this week for more details on the retreat, the volunteers who made it happen and the sponsors who opened their checkbooks for this TSPS original!
