Greetings!

 

THANK YOU NOTE

Thank you Johnnie Thompson for all the help you provided, getting the flags to the club house and decals for the cars.

 

Thank you Mary Ann Raesener for the welcome speech at the opening of the National Meeting.

 

Thank you Roy Belcher for saying our prayer at the opening of the National Meeting.

 

Thank you Jeff Wilson and staff for a great tournament. No one complained about the golf course.

 

Thanks to all the members that volunteered their golf carts for the tournament.

 

Thank you Susan and staff for the good breakfast, lunch and hamburger buffet.

 

Thank you Charlene Bourgeios, Vice President of the Pan America Association for providing help in several areas, too many to list.

 

Thank you Paul Corley, Grand Knight of the Knights of Columbus and wife, Amy Corley for coordinating the Boy Scouts to perform the color guard.

 

Thank you, George Russell, Mayor of Marble Falls, in welcoming guests to Marble Falls at the National Meeting.

 

Least of all, I would like to thank Mary Ann Paul, Alton Fields and my wife, Elisa, for all the hard work they did in helping me make sure that the National event was successful.

MAYOR'S CORNER
My daughter took these at sunset on Monday, 10/25/14.  One is just the sunset.  The other two show the two ducks that are usually there plus two geese (early arrivals maybe).  In one photo, all the birds are heading west.  In the other, the geese are heading east.

HELPING CENTER VOLUNTEERS NEEDED
 

The Helping Center is looking for a few good folks.....

 

The Helping Center is headed into their busiest time of the year and they are finding themselves a little short handed. The illness of a key volunteer has left a lot of slack in their days.

 

The Helping Center is the local food pantry for many people in our area. The current need for volunteers is over a wide range of talents. The greatest is for folks (male or female) to stock shelves and fill bag orders. There is also an ongoing need for data entry and filing. If there is someone around that has talent in website design, they could use some of your time also. The Helping Center is located just down Avenue N at the intersection with Broadway so you could be there in less than 5 minutes from the time you walked out of the house. Their hours are 10 am to 12 noon Monday thru Friday, 1:30 pm to 3:30 pm Monday thru Thursday and closed on Friday afternoons. Stop by and talk to Sam Pearce and see what talents you have to offer. Better yet, take a friend or neighbor along! The main thing to remember is that they will take whatever time you have to offer, from hours daily to minutes weekly.   They are located at 1315 Broadway St, right across from Janie's Mexican Restaurant. Phone 830-693-5689

 

LIONS CLUB ANNUAL COAT DRIVE

The Marble Falls Noon Lions Club has kicked off its Annual "COATS FOR KIDS" drive and would greatly appreciate any donations of coats from the public, for children (Size 0 thru school children sizes). There is a need for caps and gloves too. The Lions Club typically distributes about 600 coats per season at no cost to deserving families. You may leave your new or gently used coats, caps and gloves in a special box located at the Meadowlakes security gate and other businesses in Marble Falls.  These coats are for the Marble Falls area and help children that would not have a coat without your generosity. 

 

Thanks to the generous public that donate coats and money to buy some of the new coats that are distributed.  

 

This is the 30th Anniversary of the Marble Falls Lions Club and your support is greatly appreciated so that they can continue to help others!   

WATERING SCHEDULE
As of September 9th, the City is on a
Twice-a-Week watering schedule.  Please note which days you are allowed to water and adjust your systems to reflect the change.  The watering schedule is as follows:

Residential:  

 

Odd number addresses: Wednesdays and Saturdays

 

Even number addresses: Thursdays and Sundays

 

Commercial: (including large landscapes) Tuesdays and Fridays

 

Watering Hours: Midnight to 10 a.m. and 7 p.m. to midnight.

 

An advantage in the twice-a-week watering is that it would reduce the wasting of water by minimizing the need and frequency of flushing fire hydrants.  The City has received several calls recently regarding the taste/odor issues with our potable water, which would normally require the flushing of the lines via use of a fire hydrant.

    

LOST AND FOUND

Have you lost a phone, garage door opener, volleyball or childrens toy recently?  If so, please contact City Hall at (830) 693-6840
to claim it.
