We are again invited to Brenham for the Maifest parade. The parade is Saturday, May 2nd at 10:00am.
For
those in Austin we will meet at the Moton Crockett's office, at the
northeast corner of Riverside and South Congress Ave around 7:00am so we
can head out by 7:30am to caravan to Brenham. Let us know if you are
interested in joining the caravan so we don't leave without anyone.
For
anyone who has not been before this is a lot of fun and they take very
good care of us. They feed us well and let us go around downtown
TWICE!!!!!!! There is the BBQ, Blue Bell Ice Cream and Beer at the park
following the parade. And they always have a very generous donation to
the scholarship fund which is what it is all about.
