LETTER FROM OUR PRESIDENT

Howdy!

Well, to say the least the March winds are bringing many changes!! It is important that you all know that Mike Boyd has changed his meeting to April 15th. But, Aggie Mom, Cindy Stenholm will still be here on March 18th. So, please bring a guest and come see her, visit and hear what she has to say. As you know Cindy is wife of U.S. Congressman Charlie Stenholm. She and her husband are graduates of Texas Tech and raised an Aggie!! That is something I can relate to, and something I am proud of as well.

We will still have our goody bag meeting on April 15th, and we have 96 Aggies that we will be sending goody bags.

Oh Boy! Ginger Bruton and the Garage Sale Crew were fantastic!! We brought in approximately $1,500.00, for our Scholarship Fund!!!!! There are many to thank: Lynn Decker, Cindy Zafero, Lanee Warrick, Billy Warrick, Corinna Papke, Kay Young, Chris Hunter, Valerie Sheppard, Jet Mc Garvey, Nevie Lacy, Mark Bruton, Debbie Lisoski, Dillon Lisoski, Ed Lisoski, Penny Talley, Shelly Gregg, Susan Clark, Nancy Book, DeAnna Campbell, Ruth Bystrom, Anna Bartosh, Glenda Dawkins, Ann Hoelscher, Cyndy Jackson, Barbara Rolfs, Judy Lacy, Kathy Kohls, Dena Martin, J Ann Lange, Aubrey Lange, Patty Rush, Otis Rush, Frances Tefas, Betty Jo Wilde, Betty Baden, Judie Williams, and Roger Williams.

Oh, by the way! If you are ever in Sonora and decide to do a U-Turn at the intersection of HWY 277 and I-10, in front of a Texas Department of Public Safety Officer (a black and white) - you might want to tell them you know Mary Jean Sims! It worked for me!!
