Yep. We have a few good reasons for optimism in the midst of the Government Shutdown/Startup w/out ACA premiums, Orange/Republican sh*tshow. We clawed back control of the CFISD Board of Trustees in the election just past. And support for the MAGA leader & agenda is crumbling. So let’s just freaking CELEBRATE our victories & our joy. Because the real work starts Jan 1.
Note the CFVFD Parade of Lights is the same day & starts at 5, so be on time (or early or carpool) because parking will be a bear.
Join us at Romero’s Las Brazas meeting room, 15703 Longenbaugh 77095
—Sunday, December 7, 4-7 pm
The usual Dessert Contest will take place, so do your dieting ahead of time, because we have some FIERCE cooks/bakers in this club. Winners will be determined by how much members are willing to shell out for servings (although we suggest a minimum of $2, so bring some folding money). As in previous years, proceeds will go to the Houston Food Bank, so be generous (there are a lot of hungry people out there, esp with all the shutdown furloughs & outright layoffs).
Bring cash or your checkbook to pay your 2025 dues, if you haven’t already paid, & keep in mind 2026 MEMBERSHIPS hit the bricks on Jan 1. If you want to beat the crush at the meeting, give here:

Just remember to put 4% on top of your membership/contribution, if paying with ActBlue, if possible.
Are you feeling achy & are seasonal allergies worse than usual? Get a Covid test. Yes, Covid is still a killer. Please be mindful of those with health vulnerabilities, be vaccinated & boosted, & observe reasonable social distancing, as much as possible. Mask up if necessary.
See you there!
This is our mantra for 2025-26:
Retreat is not an option.
Giving up or checking out completes the job that Republican gerrymandering & voter suppression started, so we won’t.
We won’t give them what they want.
We will BLUNT Republican satisfaction & complacency at all times.
We will plan & plot & FIGHT the oncoming right-wing policies, especially the return to “women (& minorities) are cattle.” NO, just NO.
