Program
Rick Brunson
– Vice Commodore/ Steve Daniel presented Texas Whitewater-the DVD.
We had a bit of a hiccup but Fraser raced to his office and brought a
projector from work. While we waited on Fraser, Tom Douglas reported on
Armand Bayou Watershed and past out a new publication, Armand Bayou Watershed
Plan. You can look at it online
or if that direct link doesn't work, try
this one.
Steve Daniel spoke on the benefits of having the Hidalgo Falls property so close to the members of the Houston Canoe Club. Steve sent an email to Rick and Christy stating:
"Rick and Christy, our visit to the HCC meeting was the most productive in terms of sales of all five of the club meetings we attended. At the HCC meeting, we sold 12 books and 15 /Texas Whitewater/ DVDs. (Only the North Texas River Runners meeting came close: 11 books, 12 DVDs.) In the newsletter definitely mention that Breaux and I very much appreciated the attention of the members, the support they showed in buying the books and DVDs, and the gift of the carved kayak. I hope you are able to arrange a get together sometime for the club up at Hidalgo.
Steve"
