Dear TXMPA Members,

Come to the annual meeting in Austin! The Texas Motion Picture Alliance is meeting for the first time as an association in a statewide meeting and we need you to attend.

If you are feeling like the work is done and there’s no reason to gather, you could not be farther from the truth. We are just getting started and we need everyone involved.

Come find out what needs to happen between now and the next legislative session only 18 months away. Come elect your representatives to the board. Make your vote count by being present for the election.

Prior to the Austin Annual Meeting, there are Regional Meetings in Austin (June 18), Houston (June 19), Dallas (June 26) and San Antonio (June 28). Watch for more details at www.txmpa.org.

At some of the regional meetings, there will be discussions regarding the election of the Regional Representatives. In accordance with our By Laws, Austin, Dallas, and San Antonio’s Regional Reps are being chosen this year. Keep in mind, the actual vote will occur in Austin during the Annual Meeting, so it is important you come to Austin to cast your vote. Our By Laws do not have proxy voting for the membership.

Please remember, this is a membership meeting. If you are not yet a member, visit our Web site (www.txmpa.org) and join. It’s free. If you are not receiving this directly from our site (i.e., if this was forwarded to you or you received it from a list serve), you may not be a member. Please join today.

Our meeting should end at approximately 2 PM. The new board will then convene and choose its President.

I have decided not to run for the Presidency again but I do want to re-run for an At-Large Seat on the board so I can continue my involvement with TXMPA. This has been a tremendous year and I have enjoyed your support. Leading this organization during its first year was an enormous privilege and the memories will last a lifetime. Thank you for all your work, your energy, your enthusiasm, and your input. Together we made a difference.

See you in Austin!

Hector Garcia
President
