Dear Members:
We had another successful Military Appreciation Luncheon – a big thank you to all who
participated. Both Vicki Roark and Debbie Barron outdid themselves on the organization of
this very special event. Thank you to all who sponsored a veteran and donated to the Wounded
Warrior Project.
Our August meeting agenda will include a membership vote on our 2010-2011 budget so I am
hoping we will have a good turnout. Please remember to renew your membership so that we
can include everyone in our new yearbook. The yearbook ad campaign continues through the
month of August.
The Annual Kerrville Area Chamber of Commerce Banquet and Awards Dinner will be held on
September 2, 2010. Please let me know if you are interested in attending (KCWC will have a
table at the event).
As always, your support and consideration are greatly appreciated. Looking forward to seeing
everyone in August.
Until next Month,
Dolores

Our Speaker for the July General Meeting was Matt Roever, son of Dave Roever who operates the Wounded Warrior program under the umbrella of the Roever Evangelistic Association.
Matt described the Current Eagles Summit Ranch operation in West Cliff Colorado along with slide
show. He then introduced the new Project, Texas Eagle Summit Ranch, which is under way here
in the Hill Country. Land has been purchased near Junction in Kimble County. Drawings of the
buildings have been completed and support from Churches and individual donations is on
going and they hope to reach their goal soon.
No Government funds are being used to fund the construction of the ranch.
The Program takes the wounded soldier out of the typical environment to help them be able to
come back into society and back into resorting their marriages and family life again through
therapy at the Eagles Summit Ranch facilities.
