[Travelandtourism] Some Questions about PR and going to NationalParks

[Peter Donahue]

Hello Cheryl and everyone,

    Correction. That was San Antonio Texas though Austin has attractions of 
interest to tourists San Antonio has a greater variety of things to do. 
Austin is mainly a college town and the hub of Texas government as it is our 
state capitol. There have been lots of folks that have asked us about San 
Antonio whenever we've been at past national conventions. Some folks wished 
we would hold a national convention here. I suggested to Cheryl that having 
a Travel and Tourism trip here could help us make the connections to make a 
national convention possible in the future.

Please keep this in your prayers and thoughts. One of the Texas BELL 
Programs will be held in San Antonio this summer. All the best.

Peter Donahue
