Howdy Ags,
Happy New Year to everyone.  I certainly hope the Holiday’s were good to you and your families.  With any luck you have hit the new year with both feet on the ground and moving forward to a great year.  While it may take some of us a month (or two) to remember to write 2017 on documents or those archaic items called checks, it is always nice to step into a new year and what may lie ahead.
 
As the club will have our annual meeting on the 19th of this month we will usher in some new board members and offer a ‘heartfelt’ thank you to those who have served the club over the last year and will be stepping down.  Of course we can count on them to stay involved and continue to assist as we move forward.

Get involved in the WCAMC

As we approach the end of the year we will be looking for individuals interested in serving on the WCAMC board for 2017.  If you would like to be more involved and help move the club forward in a positive direction consider playing a bigger role.  We will have officer and at large board positions opening up and would love to have you you join the team.  We have two at-large board positions that will become available in January.  This is a great way to get involved and assist in the direction of the club.  These are 2 year terms and require just 4 meetings (once a quarter) throughout the year.  

Annual Membership Meeting

Our annual membership meeting has been set for Thursday 19 January at Gumbo’s North – Georgetown.  Join us upstairs at the bar at 5:30 followed by the business meeting at 6:30.  We will have a special menu to order from so be sure to come by and join us.  More to come on that in the future but be sure to save the date.

Weekly Events

We will continue 2017 with our weekly events where hopefully you can find something that fits both your time frame, as well as your interest.  Please also keep in mind that we are here to serve the members of our club, with that said we are always open to suggestions, ideas of other activities.  Just keep in mind, it may also allow you the opportunity to step up and volunteer.
 
The first Thursday of the month will be our Reveille Breakfast at Rudy’s – Round Rock, where you can stop by on your way to work for a little social time and a great breakfast taco.  On the second Thursday we will continue our Family Night at Double Dave’s.  Make plans to join us at either the Cedar Park or Round Rock location for great pizza rolls and a night where you do not have to cook.  On the third Thursday we will have our Networking Lunch.  Whether you are in the market for a new job or looking for exceptional candidates as new employees, this is a great opportunity to connect with other Aggies.  Finally, now that football season is over (a positive in many ways) we do not have any watch parties so we will resume our Howdy Hour on the fourth Thursday of the month. 
 
We look forward to seeing familiar faces and welcoming all the new ones to all of our club activities.  Remember to join our club page on Facebook so you can stay up to date with all that is going on around the county.
