City Hosting Community Connection Workshop on “Financial Freedom”, Thursday, Sept. 12

The City of Lake Charles will host the latest Community Connection workshop series for adults on September 12, 2019, from 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm, at Huber Recreation Center, 2124 14th Street. The latest workshop is titled Financial Freedom through Good Budgeting and Thinking Long Term.

According to a media release, similar to the Teen Connection series, Community Connection consists of free, one-hour workshops set to enhance life skills for adults in Lake Charles and the surrounding area. Attendees will also be entered into a raffle to win a brand-new laptop computer.

“There has been much conversation in recent years about the economic boom our area is experiencing, but one thing we hear quite frequently is that many of our citizens are unsure of how they can benefit and improve their own lives on the heels of this growth,” said Mayor Nic Hunter. “Community Connection will focus on providing real, practical information on topics such as landing a better job, gaining financial independence, leveraging banking and a good credit score to improve your personal bottom line, encouraging the entrepreneurial spirit, and much more.”

One workshop remains in September.
