Merry Christmas Everyone!!!Well, here it is another end of the year! Wow how time flies! As we bring 2015 to an end, so does our 5th year asThe Arc of the Hill Country, Chapter 3232!! From just a hand full of folks wanting more for their loved ones, to all you wonderfulpeople, we have succeeded in touching many lives. And we are not done!Sunday, December 6, at 2pm, at the John Paul II High School, we will be meeting for our end of the year annual board meeting,and you are invited! We hope you will attend our meeting to hear about our accomplishments for the year, and to discuss 2016 andwhat all we hope to see happening. We will be discussing our short term and long term goals. Which we have many!We have a few board member positions that are opening up and want to discuss what those positions mean to the new members.We generally have our board meetings before our dances so we are asking for one day a month commitment. Plus a couple extra daysthrough the year for fundraising and other fun events.Our reason for this board and our activities is to better provide outlets for our loved ones to get out and about in the community.We want their lives to be fulfilled and busy and fun. That is our main concern, our loved ones.There are many things in the works, and many long term goals, and the only way to get any of these things accomplished, is withhelp from you. There are workshops, seminars, continuing education, transportation and many other ideas to get to.Sometimes it doesn't go the way we hope, and sometimes we just have to keep trying. Many folks work full, or part time and cannotparticipate in all, which is why we need more folks to help fill the gaps. Sometimes we don't all agree, but majority rules and our lovedones having more options is our goal. There are many local resources that have not been tapped and just waiting for the opportunity.We can't quit now because we have many years to fill the lives of our loved ones. We want them to have the best and no one buttheir loved ones, us!, can make that happen. Who else will fulfill their lives but us? Who else will offer programs, seminars, fun activities,continuing ed and making the best friends of their lives? Only we can do that, and only we can do that with help from you!If you want more for your loved one, get involved and make it happen. The Arc is our solution, only with your assistance!What goals do you have for your loved one?Our goal is to one day have our own center, with endless possibilities. There is no miracle to making this happen. It's hard work, commitment,time, energy and you. Don't quit on the dream, make it happen and try harder. What will your loved one being doing for the next 20 plusyears? Not much without you doing your part. Gordon Hartman doesn't live in New Braunfels, but we do!! Let's make it happen!LisaLisa Reddam

The Big Give is South Central Texas' second annual giving day, and it's our chance to make a real impact as part of a family and a community. Last year's event raised nearly $2,100,000 for local charitable causes and I know that we can do even more this year! I have signed up as an Agency Advocate for The Arc of the Hill Country in hopes to help their cause in this year's Big Give. Help me make an impact on May 5th by donating to The Arc of the Hill Country through the Big Give S.A. website: http://www.thebiggivesa.org/The mission of The Arc of the Hill Country is to advocate and assist individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities in their efforts to achieve education, transportation, recreation, employment and residential living goals. We are committed to supporting these individuals in an effort to provide them the ability to live a rewarding life while attaining their full potential within our local community.
