Christmas Greetings

Dear <<First Name>>,

I'm sure you're busy getting ready to celebrate Christmas with family and friends. We've been busy baking up a storm for the Cookie Crawl in Bastrop today where we'll have a table and lots of treats for the kids. A special note for those who have lost loved ones this year, have family overseas or such a distance that you can't be together, or for whom the holidays are particularly difficult: please know you are in our prayers and if there is anything we can do to make the holidays just a bit brighter, let us know.

Thanks to all of you, we had an outstanding first year. I'll have an annual report at our first meeting in January, but you've done an incredible job getting us off and running. We're expecially blessed that we are on solid footing for an election year that will require all hands on deck to keep and build on our Republican majorities.

Our first meeting will be at 12:00 noon on Friday January 5 at the Bastrop Chamber of Commerce. This is not our normal meeting time, so be sure to put it prominently in your calendar. Bring a bite to eat, something to drink and get ready to roll up your sleeves as we begin planning 2018.

Be sure you have "liked" our Facebook page (fb.com/lostpinesrw) and shared it with your friends. If we each bring in a couple of new members this year, we can triple our club membership. Be sure to also check out the announcements below, especially TFRW's Leadership Day on January 27. I'll be going and I hope you will too.

Have a safe, blessed, and very merry Christmas.

All the best,

Carol A. Spencer
President
