HAPPY BIRTHDAY WARRIORS
This weekend we celebrated our 14th birthday. Thanks to the Martin’s for the use of their facilities for this party. Thanks also for the use of the Magic Bus during our stay and coffee delivered to our door each morning. These fine folks are extremely helpful and go out of their way to make you feel at home. Beautiful Lake Boudreaux gave those in attendance a fine place to cool off during the heat of the day.
Thanks to the Tri-County Chapter for providing a great party for this important day. Those folks went all out to make everything come out just right. Plenty of food and refreshments for everyone.
This was also the time for those whose renewal is due in July to renew. We received 29 renewals (12 of which came from the Lubbock BoozeFighters) and five new members. For those who haven’t renewed their July membership it is time to get it done. We need these renewals as soon as possible to try to figure a budget for 2006. Sold a few shirts and the Revvv won the 50/50 and donated his half of $159 back to the association. Thanks my Brother. We are sending Jan $ 1227 from the weekend.
Now down to some serious politics:
IN response to the recent Supreme Court Ruling HJR 19 has been introduced to stop cities from taking private property for Economical Development. This resolution is to be heard today, July 5th, at 1:00pm.
SJR 9 and SJR 10 are senate versions of the same issue and they will both be heard tomorrow in the Senate State Affairs Committee. What we need immediately are lots of calls to the governor’s office telling him that this is a very important issue and should be added to the Special Session immediately.
Call 512-463-2000 to make your request and pass this message on to everyone you have an address for. Don’t delay!! This is too important an issue to allow it to slip through our fingers. Your chairman will attend both these hearings and report the outcome immediately. It doesn’t matter whether it passes unless the governor puts it on the agenda for this Special Session.
