A bar opening in Beaumont this summer looks to hire staffers.

"The Park on Calder" is coming to the former Luke's property in Old Town, located at 2325 Calder Ave. The bar is set to open later this summer, ideally in mid to late July.

Owner and Beaumont native Deondre Moore previously told The Enterprise the bar and restaurant will be a venue the city hasn't seen before. He said it will have "a really nice vibe and pomp and circumstance" making sure that when people go there "they're getting an experience."

"Even the hiring process isn't your typical hiring process," Moore previously told The Enterprise. "We're doing a big casting call and the reason we're calling it a casting call is because we're going to be a full production. We want to give people an experience when they come into this space."

The Park on Calder is hosting that casting call on June 3 at the Holiday Inn and Suites, located at 3980 Interstate 10 Access Road in Beaumont. Registration starts at 8 a.m. and interviews will happen from 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.
