Weekly Luncheon & Program

Jim Swift, KXAN News
introduced by Lion Ken Crone

     For the past 32 years Jim Swift has given us unique, interesting and sometimes off the wall, stories as a reporter/photographer for Channel 36 KXAN News.  While attending college at Southwestern University in Georgetown  Jim worked part-time as a disc jockey at the old KGTN radio station.  For two weeks every summer, when the general manager was on vacation, Jim would take to the microphone as an anchor and news reporter.  It was there that he got the “bug” for reporting the news.

     Come hear reporter Jim Swift speak to our club about some of the crazy, and not so crazy, stories that he’s reported on since 1977.
