The
King: Jim Huddleston - Jim's wife Cindy got her big wish
on her birthday and King's Day - Jim found the baby!
Galveston, TX....... (
Galveston/ Houston Bureau
)Jim joined the Krewe of
Gambrinus 13 years ago and has been a float captain for 10 of those
years. The Krewe has provided Jim and his wife -- Cindy -- a great
opportunity to meet and mix with like-minded partygoers and develop close
friendships along the way. The Krewe is really a full year association.
The friendships are really the best part of being part of Gambrinus!
Jim and Cindy have enjoyed living on Galveston's West end for 13 years.
They strategically placed their three children and their families in
Seattle, Denver, and Houston for great R&R visits to go play.
Jim has been involved in many civic activities, such as member of the
Galveston Economic Development Partnership, president of the Lafitte's
Cove Property Owners Association, president of the Lafitte's Cove Nature
Society, and board member of the Pirates Property Owners Association. Jim
is a graduate of the Colorado School of Mines as a metallurgical engineer.
He has been in an entrepreneurial mode most of his career, starting &
selling two successful materials technology companies in the Houston area.
He has new businesses in Montreal and Houston and two partner companies in
China.
Jim spends his free, fun time -- a rare commodity -- with Krewe activities
(partying, etc!), snow boarding, bike riding, fishing and hiking.
As king, Jim plans to stay focused on the Krewe's mantra: Laissez Les
Bon Temps Rouler!
