WHAT A MAGNIFICENT AND AWE INSPIRING EXPERIENCE....TOURING THE H.E.B. DISTRIBUTION CENTER.
     On October 20th, 9 members of our club toured the H.E.B. Distribution Center, located on Hunter Road in San Marcos.  What a monumental experience that was.  Just visiting our two HEB stores here in town, you cannot begin to imagine the immensity of where all the food, and other items that are in our stores, come from.  The center has close to 1,000 employees, doing everything from constantly sweeping the floors, making sure everything is clean and tidy, to driving one of hundreds of motorized vehicles that goes constantly around the store, picking up what the stores have ordered, taking them to where they need to go, automatically wrapping the containers, and automatically sending them to what stores they need to go throughout Texas.  Adam Olson, the Distribution Center gave those of us w
ho were on the tour, one of the most complete and understandable description of what goes on in this Center, 24-7.  The members that were fortunate enough to attend this tour were: Randy & Pam Cook, Doug & Jean Balkman, Del & Marie Brown, Charles Johnson, Chester Banks and Ted Breihan.  We all want to thank Doug Balkman for making this tour possible.  It was G-R-E-A- T!!!!!
