All in an effort to increase educational and career opportunities for Bolivar residents. Among the industries present were UTMB Health, Peninsula EMS, US Customs & Border Protection, Galveston ISD, Port of Galveston, Workforce Solutions, and WWL Vehicle Services. And colleges represented were Lee College, Texas A&M University Maritime Academy, College of the Mainland, and Lamar State College Port Arthur.
