East Texas Council of Governments represents a collective initiative by member counties to make our Region of the State a better place to live and raise a family.
Camp County
The many programs administered by ETCOG touch the lives of every citizen in our 14-county region. We are fortunate to have this organization that constantly strives to have a positive impact on East Texas. The Leadership and Staff at ETCOG are second to none and East Texas is a better place because of it.
I am very honored to have been elected as Board Chairman for
an organization consisting of so many outstanding community
leaders. I continue to enjoy working with each of them and the ETCOG staff as we collectively
address the many shared concerns of our communities.
