CURRENTS – Apr/May 2019
Spring Time in South Texas! Our chapter just wrapped up our 2019 banquet and had a great turnout—over 2100 attended! Great food, great drinks and great friends. Valerie Chilton, our banquet chairperson, and our board of directors and volunteers did an outstanding job to make our 2019 banquet successful.
Our Bull Red Raffle, sponsored by Andrews Distributing, featured a 2019 Majek 22.6 Illusion M2 with a 150 HP Yamaha Four Stroke and Coastline trailer. The boat winner was Ron Laza.
Our Sow Trout Raffle, sponsored by L&F Distributing, featured 2018 Mahindra ROXOR with a 14-ft tandem axle utility trailer. The ROXOR winner was Paul Dirks.
We truly appreciate the sponsorship support from all of our donors throughout the years. Our banquet would not be possible without such help. A special thanks goes out to our Bronze Level Sponsors.
