JN Chamber Spring Banquet 2008

The Homeplace of Tuscola, Texas welcomed a packed house for the Chamber Spring Banquet. Bill and Lynn had it looking so pretty with pink geraniums on the porch and the traditional Texas Bluebonnets out in mass. (One of the FEW places they are really pretty this year... guess we missed the bluebonnet rains of October!)
Chamber President Dale Rankin, Genny Abercrombie, and Grace Broyles outdid themselves in preparation for the annual event.
Wonderful door prizes were given to winning tickets. Hummmm the Carpenter family took home autographed pictures of Landry and Staubach with 2 winning tickets.
With his powerful and familiar radio voice, Ray Stone delivered an impressive message with much research backing his mandate to "shop your home town".
Then the awards to our outstanding businessman, teacher and volunteer. Congratulations!!! Once again, it makes one proud to be a member of the Jim Ned Valley community!
