Save Texas Schools – State of Public Education in Texas
Speakers  Michael Messer and Leesa Moore will discuss the 2011 public education budget cuts. I’m sure we will discuss the action of the Texas Democratic Party today demanding Gov. Perry call a special legislative session for school funding.

Our monthly meeting is on Monday, February 27. Gather at 6:45pm, call to order at 7pm. We’re back in our regular meeting place – Collin College- Frisco, 9700 Wade Blvd, Founders Hall, Rm. F148.

Hi All,

Just wanted to send out a “Save the Date” reminder that our BROADS book club will be meeting Feb 16 – (3rd Thursday, every 3 months).

The book club will be at my house again, 2508 Rosehill LN, Plano, TX near Park and Coit… Right Behind Haggard Library.

We’ll be discussing “Here Comes Trouble: Stories From My Life” by Michael Moore

Let’s plan on meeting by 6:45ish so we can start discussing the book by 7:00. Remember – even if you haven’t read the book, please come for the good discussions.

I have 5 bottles of wine left over from last time so no one needs to bring wine and I’ll have tea and water too. Feel free to bring a snack to share if you’d like.

Also, please bring a book suggestion for our next read.

Thanks and I’ll send out another reminder a little closer.
