Ponchatoula meet May meet moves!<br />
The Ponchatoula meet did excepently<br />
well under the guidance and<br />
efforts of A. L. Levy. He not only<br />
changed the venue to a location that<br />
was cheaper, he tied it in with Antique<br />
Trade Days and Craft Show<br />
which is a bi-annual event. This<br />
brought great results from all directions.<br />
The meet took in $3,426.00<br />
and the expenses were $946.11 plus<br />
$296.00 that was paid out after the<br />
report on the left. This resulted in a<br />
profit of $2,183.89.<br />
The New Braunfels meet for last<br />
year and the Plano meet consistently<br />
made little or no profit due to the<br />
high costs of the venues. We have<br />
solved the problem in New Braunfels<br />
as you will read elsewhere on<br />
this page.<br />

<strong>Train</strong> <strong>Collectors</strong> Association – Lone Star Division – Newsletter January 2010 – Winter Meet – Katy, Texas<br />
The Lone Star Division May<br />
meet that has been held in New<br />
Braunfels for over 20 years is moving<br />
to Garden Ridge, Texas. This<br />
location is just out side of San Antonio’s<br />
Loop 1604 by less than two<br />
miles and is less than two miles<br />
west of IH-35.<br />
We enjoyed many good years in<br />
New Braunfels, but we had to move<br />
due to the rent of the New Braunfels<br />
Civic Center going from $550<br />
for years, to $1,300 last year and<br />
this coming year would have cost us<br />
$2,000.00.<br />
The Garden Ridge Community<br />
Center is about six years old and is<br />
very modern with ample surrounding<br />
parking.<br />
Unloading and loading will be<br />
easier at the Garden Ridge Community<br />
Center as it is all one level with<br />
multiple overhead doors in different<br />
locations near the parking lot.<br />
Because of being much closer<br />
to San Antonio we expect better attendance.<br />
With the reduced costs of<br />
just under $1,000.00 we expect it to<br />
be more that just break even or go<br />
into the red.<br />
Below: This is a photo of about 2/3<br />
the front of the Garden Ridge Community<br />
Center with parking on both<br />
sides and in front of it.<br />
