MLK Day events Monday honoring the birthday of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. include the annual MLK Day Breakfast in Beaumont. This year it's at Mt. Gilead Missionary Baptist Church from 7-9 a.m.

The annual Port Arthur brunch at the Bob Bowers Civic Center always draws a large crowd. It's hosted by the Martin Luther King Jr. Support Group of Southeast Texas.

Hargie Savoy is the longtime president of the organization.

KFDM/Fox'4's Angel San Juan and Jackie Simien are the master and mistress of ceremonies. Angel and Jackie have held those roles for a number of years.

The program includes awards, speakers, scholarship recipients and entertainment to honor Dr. King and his legacy in the civil rights movement.

The annual MLK Parade in Beaumont was moved to Saturday, February 8 because of the rainy weather this past Saturday.
