So, no meeting today, Tuesday, March 11, 2025. A reminder that we are having Council elections on that meeting of March 18th. Interested in an office for our Council? Open positions: President, Vice President, Secretary/Treasurer Other positions: Chaplain, Parliamentarian and Building Manager. Hope you all can give serious consideration to taking a position.
We have four potential members coming to our meeting on the 18th. I advised that they should come to a meeting and make up their minds whether LULAC Council 8003 is for them. Let’s welcome them to our meeting as we may gain 4 potential members! We have a guest in Virginia Chick who will present on the Southwest Regional Art Museum and Art Center on the 18th. We will be looking forward to her presentation! James Charleston, Executive Director of the Silver City Theatre has put out a calling for actors in the next Play they putting on. Especially in need are Chicano men from 30-50 years of age for auditions. A noted Chicano director from Phoenix, Arizona is coming to Silver City to direct the play himself!

After spending about 7 hours at the Hall about two weeks ago on plumbing issues, I am glad to say our drain from the kitchen has been cleared! Cost to Council is approximately $30! Saved us a bunch on a plumber! I am not a certified plumber, but it needed to get done and as inexpensively as we could! We will hear other reports on what else is happening as will as a Treasurer’s report. I will be traveling to Washington DC beginning my journey today, Tuesday. I will attend the National LULAC Board meeting as the State LULAC Director. Should be back Friday evening!
Sincerely,
Fred Baca, President
LULAC Council 8003
