Howdy Ags,

Join us Thursday for our Reveille Breakfast starting at 7:00am at Rudy’s BBQ in Round Rock (2400 N IH35).  It’s a great chance to meet and network with other Aggies in the area.

Are you in the market for a real Christmas tree this year?  If so then we would encourage you to support the local Boy Scout Troop 155’s Christmas tree sales project.  These are the young men that help us keep things clean each year at Fish Fry.

Boy Scout Troop 155’s annual Christmas tree sale is in a new place this year. The scouts opened last Friday from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. in the lot at 2427 Williams Drive, next to The Pit BBQ. They previously set up at at the old Georgetown Hospital, 605 East University Avenue, for five years. The 2015 sale is open 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Friday and 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Saturday and Sunday through December 19. Caleb Barry ties a Christmas tree atop a family’s car during last year’s sale.

Howdy Aggies,

Hats off to Coach G and the soccer team as they have once again made it into the Elite 8 and will make a run at another title. Very exciting and a huge stride for the team considering how many seniors graduated and the number of under classman are on the squad. They have a rough road ahead but have defeated North Carolina and had a huge win against Ole Miss that came down to penalty kicks.

Things have kicked off on the hardwood and basketball season is getting ready to start in full swing. Be sure to catch the men’s and women’s programs as there will be some exciting games this year. The men will have a rough Thanksgiving as they will be in the Bahamas for a tournament. They will be playing the t-sips while there so let’s hope they come out with a win. Both the programs have started off well and could be an exciting year.

On a final note, the volleyball team has won twelve straight and ranked nationally. Hitting their stride at the right time as we near the end of the season and begin a hunt for a national championship run.

GEORGETOWN SENIOR SIGNS WITH AGGIE VOLLEYBALL

Congratulation to Maddie Douglas from Georgetown High School. She signed her letter of intent to play volleyball for Coach Corbelli and the Texas Aggies. Maddie has played on the varsity squad at Georgetown for three years and has set a number of school record in that time. Pictured below with Maddie are her mother and father, Trish and Nathan.

WCAMC BOARD OPENINGS

We will have a board meeting in December in order to purpose a slate of nominees for the entire club to vote on at our annual meeting early in 2016. It is everyone’s club and we would certainly appreciate input from all members.

Howdy Ags,

Rough weekend on the athletic front as the soccer team lost a close one at Ellis Field and the football team, well to say the least they ‘struggled’ in Oxford.

An early kickoff this weekend as the Gamecocks from South Carolina will get started at 11AM. Our watch party will once again be at George’s. While they will open up the patio for us around 10:30 the full fair will not be available until after 11AM when they begins their normal hours.

Howdy Ags,

October has arrived and the cool weather that teased us for a few days has disappeared.   With any luck it will soon return and the fall atmosphere will be in full swing. Plenty of Aggie athletics to occupy everyone’s interest, whatever it might be.

Coach ‘G’ and the soccer team had another shut-out at Ellis Field, this time against the Crimson team from T-town. You may also recall that the team was able to shut-out the Bulldogs prior to the football teams victory at Kyle Field. Let’s be optimistic that the string will continue!?!

Both golf teams have been traveling the country for various tournaments, making a promising showing for the program. Volleyball is in the thick of conference play and basketball starts in about 30 days. Hard to believe an entire slate of athletic activities on the horizon.

Of course the game that is on everyone’s mind is Saturday at 2:30 in Kyle Field as the Saban lead ‘Bama’ team comes to town. If you are making the trip over to Aggieland, be sure to leave early as larger than normal crowds are expected. The weather forecast, while possibly a little warm for October, should be ideal for tailgating. With an afternoon game you can start early, enjoy a great game and continue the festivities after. For those not making the trip east we will have our Hullabaloo Huddle (watch party) again and details on that are listed below.

HULLABALOO HUDDLE

If you are unable to make it to College Station this weekend make plans to join fellow Aggies for our watch party at George’s. The patio, as well as the bar, will be full of Ags and heighten the atmosphere as opposed to sitting at home. The Chef is working on something special out of the kitchen and Donny has a ‘bucket of beer’ special that will be perfect for a day on the patio while watching the Aggies BTHO Bama!

WEEKLY EVENTS

Join us this week for our networking lunch at Verdes in Round Rock. Close to IH-35 and easy access should make it easy for many to join us. If you are looking to expand your business network or just discuss Aggie sports, be sure to come out and join us.

WilCo Aggie Moms Club Meeting

Dr. Lawrence Donovan , the vice dean of the Round Rock campus, and Vanessa Breslin, senior academic advisor for the college of nursing, are scheduled to be our speakers. It will be a great chance to see the facility and learn about the educational opportunities offered close to home through Texas A&M! Please invite all students interested in careers in the healthcare industry to join us!
