Bastrop Man of the Year: Steve Schroeder - Example of Leadership, Business, Rotary & Community

Steve shares his journey from working in schools for over 15 years to finding new purpose helping families plan for the future while staying deeply involved in the Bastrop community. From supporting local students and teachers to honoring first responders and veterans, Steve’s work is rooted in service and connection.
