The Heart of Texas FOOLS up in the metroplex have an event coming up we wanted to pass along. It is called HOT FOOLS Night and is at the Love & War in Plano (601 E Plano Pkwy 75074). The announcement on their website says they will have Firefighter Olympics, Pipes and Drums, and live music from the Mo Robson Band. Check it out here…

CenTexFOOLS Community Service Project Number 1

As discussed at the May meeting in Liberty Hill, a community service project has been set up. Today I spoke with Karen Thompson who is the contact person for the Pond Springs Cemetery, on Lake Creek Drive in Jollyville.

Mrs. Thompson is a descendant of the Jolly family, and was very thankful for our offer for assistance. She is sending me a packet of history and other information about the site and I will post it here when it comes in.

The next step is to decide on a date, the sooner the better. But, keep in mind July 4th is coming at us and that is usually a busy time at work for all of us. Post some comments below the story here and we can start hashing out a date, equipment, and all of that. I will also post a message over on Texas-Fire.

We will be meeting up for the May 2007 on the 26th of May; meeting in Seward Junction, which is near Liberty Hill. We’re getting together at a restaurant called Margarita’s, which is located at or near the corner of Hwy. 29 and US HWY 183 (click here for a map). We are aiming to start around 7:00 PM and the agenda is a little food and conversation about the tiller truck !

The April 2007 meeting was held last night at the Hooters in Round Rock. It was attended by 5 folks. 2 card carrying FOOLS, 1 new registrant, 1 future FOOL, and one lost firefighter who just so happened to be at the wrong Hooters at the right time!

We talked about building a golf cart sized tiller truck and taking it to parades. Don’t laugh, I think it’s gonna happen !

Tentative meeting place for next month will be out in Liberty Hill. Check back here for more details !
