As I mentioned in the meeting Carrie Isaacks has agreed to set up another chapter visit to the VA Hospital in Houston. Past President Fred Bultman did this for the chapter and usually spent around $200.00 for each visit with gift bags for the veterans. Carrie has spent around $210.00 and hopefully everyone is okay with the chapter reimbursing her for the expense.
Carrie will stuff the bags. The dates we are looking at are March 11, 12 or 13. (Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday). Please let me know which date works best for you. We usually go in the morning and on a weekday as it is less crowded than the weekend. We will be visiting around 40 beds at the hospital.
Wear your SAR uniform or SAR shirt etc. (last time they thought we were the British)
Also, the TXSSAR Archives Committee will be printing Vol. 3 of the Texas Society History. In Vol 2 the chapter had 13 members who submitted their biographies. Jim Penny and I will be working on this. All information must be submitted by July. Example attached.
