Howdy Ags,

On March 30, WCAMC hosted Big Event: WilCo Edition. Several Aggies got to help ROCK (Ride On Center for Kids). ROCK is a theraputic riding center that uses equine assisted therapy to help kids and adults overcome the challanges they are faced with. We spent the morning cleaning and painting several ramps used by the kids to get on the horses.

Since 1992, the Williamson County A&M Foundation (WCAMF) has provided $436,700 in scholarships to assist 145 students from Williamson County attending Texas A&M University with money raised from Fish Fry and other efforts. If you know of a high school student that will be attending Texas A&M in the fall, encourage them to apply. The applications deadline is April 1. Recipients will be introduced at Muster on April 22. More information can be found on our scholarship page.The Williamson County A&M Club (WCAMC), with the help of members, recently began efforts to endow a scholarship through the Texas A&M Foundation to ensure scholarship opportunities for students from Williamson County well into the future. Thanks to the generous efforts of our members, WCAMC is about $5,000 away from completing our first $25,000 scholarship endowment. Follow our progress on our endowment page and learn how you can help. Following that lead, WCAMF is working to establish additional endowed scholarships and has established a matching program to partner with Williamson County Aggies on these scholarships.

Howdy Ags,

This month’s Networking Lunch will be at The Rock Sports Bar in Round Rock on January 17. Also, join us at Gumbo’s in Georgetown for our Howdy Hour/Annual Meeting on January 24 where we will have a few more announcements to share. Howdy Hour starts at 5:30 pm with the Annual Meeting beginning at 6:30 pm.

Following the lead of the Texas A&M main campus, the Williamson County A&M Club will be hosting the 2019 Aggie Muster on Monday, April 22, 2019, in the evening. We understand that moving the date of Muster is nothing to be taken lightly and appreciate everyone’s understanding in the matter.

Keep an eye on your inbox and our facebook page for more details as we have them.

We hope to see you all on April 22.

……………………………..

From an official campus article:

The one-time date change for the campus Muster ceremony from its usual day of observance on San Jacinto Day, April 21, was prompted by the date coinciding with the Easter Sunday holiday, a time when traveling to and from campus may be difficult for members of the Texas A&M campus community and loved ones of deceased Aggies being honored.

Aggie Muster Committee Chair Helena Shakesby, a Human Resource Management graduate student and member of the class of 2019, said the decision was made “with the input and support of a wide array of campus and community representatives.” Community representatives included Texas A&M representative student organizations (Student Senate, Class Councils, Corps of Cadets, Graduate & Professional Student Councils, etc.), Texas A&M University administrators, The Association of Former Students, Class of 1969 representatives, former honored families, Transportation Services and Reed Arena support staff.

”The decision to hold the campus Muster on a different day was made with extensive care and consideration for those served by our Muster and those impacted by the event itself,” Shakesby said. “Opinions were gathered and voices were heard throughout the process, with full acknowledgement of the challenge of how to best serve the campus community. The Aggie Muster Committee is proud to organize and hold a Muster that as many Aggies as possible can attend.”

Thanks and Gig’em!
