Ballot Drawing and other Upcoming Events in Milam County

Hello Everyone,

I just wanted to take a little bit of time this morning and let everyone know what is going on here in Milam County in the next week and near future.

Wednesday, December 23, 2015, we will be having our drawing for a place on the ballot. We will kick it off at 6:30 at my family’s office at 411 East First Street in Cameron. That’s that small white building across the railroad tracks from the Crime Stoppers’ House of Horrors.

If you come in a car I would recommend turning on the street just past the office and entering the parking area around the back of the building as the drop directly from First Street to the parking area can be a little treacherous in a non-truck!!

January 19^th, 2016, the Republican Women of Milam County will be having their monthly meeting. Please feel free to come by and enjoy a couple of hours with one of the Texas’ most successful Women’s group. Meeting will begin at 6:30 pm at the Budget Host Inn & Suites in Cameron.

February 4^th, 2016 is the big event of the year for us here in Milam County; the annual Reagan Day and Texas Independence Day Dinner here in Milam County. As with election years in the past, this year there will be no featured speaker; instead each local candidate and contested state/federal candidate will be given some time to speak with the crowd. Lots of time to meet and greet, plus what has only been described as the best meal on the campaign trail….or any other trail for this matter.

The Crowd from Lat Years Reagan Day & Texas Independence Day Dinner!

Tickets are $50 a piece and tables can be bought as well. Email me for specifics on this.

That’s about it for today. I hope all is well with each of you. I look forward to seeing those who can make it Wednesday.

Merry Christmas,

Bill

February 5th Milam County Republican Women's Dinner

Hello Everyone,

First I hope everyone had an enjoyable time the last few weeks. I know our house was full of children for the first time in forever and while it was a bit crowded it was pretty awesome to have everyone around. Now it’s a new year and it’s time to prepare for the coming year….only 10 months till filing time for the 2016 election!!

The first step in the process is the upcoming Texas Independence Day and Reagan Day Dinner hosted by the Republican Women of Milam County. The Dinner will be held on February 5^th beginning at 6:00 pm at the Cameron VFW hall. This year, the Republican Women are very excited to host a very special guest speaker, the Rev. Rafael Cruz, father of U.S. Senator Ted Cruz.

The Rev. Cruz has a tremendous life story and an even more special message about American Exceptionalism that is both inspiring and motivational. To understand all that he has been through and to know that only in America could someone come from nothing to a successful businessman who raised a future U. S. Senator (and possibly……).

Tickets are on sale now for $50 each and can be purchased from any member of the Republican Women of Milam County (email me and I can get you set up as well).

If you would like to donate an item for the silent auction please let me know and I will get that set up as well. Items can be brought to the event or mailed to the address below.

So mark your calendar for February 5^th and come on out and enjoy the evening. This is an opportune time to meet and talk to your elected officials at the local, state, and national level. There will also be a silent auction as well as our now-famous Prime Rib dinner. The Republican Women of Milam County put on what is generally regarded as one of the best events in Senate District 5 if not the whole state.

I look forward to seeing you all there.

Thanks,

Bill
