We are so excited that our distributors have signed on for another year. And, our wonderful entertainment will be provided by Brave Combo again. Did you do "The Chicken Dance" with us last year? If not, we will be dragging you out to the dance floor with us as we celebrate the return of OKTOBERFEST.

Look for new things this year...the most creative displays of delicious food, maybe a few exciting auction items and who knows what other fun you will find? Bring your friends with you; the more the merrier! We are deliberately keeping our ticket costs down because we want everyone to join the party. Thanks to our hosts for making this possible. If you want to host, give Amy a call at 903-258-2520; for $250, you will receive 4 tickets and reserved seating and know that you are helping underwrite the costs so that more money will go back into helping the families served by Parents Anonymous.

Our committee held the last formal meeting today and the excitement is building!! Only a few more days and the FIRST OKTOBERFEST in Tyler will be held!!!

We finalized our chance drawing prizes today: jewelry from Cole and Co., a trip to the Shiner Brewery, a basket of goodies from Cavenders and other retailers and a neon beer sign!!

How do you get a chance for these? By buying a ticket, of course, or by winning while playing one of our fun games!!

We can't wait and hope you are looking forward to attending, also.

We are getting ready to mail invitations. Yes, you can buy tickets on this website, but if you want a copy of our fabulous (and cute, if we do say so) invitation, please send us your address in the contact section of the website. We are counting down the days to this event and hope you are, too!!!
