2 President’s Message As summer is drawing to an end, things are Trey Hunt gearing back up at TABA and this month we have some important opportunities to support the housing industry. Please make plans to join us for TABA’s Annual Government Officials Appreciation Luncheon on August 28th at Willow Brook Country Club. Our guest speaker will be Dr. James Gaines, Chief Economist at Texas A&M Real Estate Center, who should be very informative regarding new construction and real estate trends across Texas and our region.

We’ll also present checks to charitable recipients of the 2019 Parade of Homes™. Contact TABA staff to RSVP for this event.

Also, TABA’s 10th Annual Clay Shoot will take place on August 23rd at Prairie Creek Ranch. All proceeds benefit HOMEPAC, the Texas Association of Builders’ political action committee. HOMEPAC funds are used to support pro-housing legislation. This is always a great event and you can sign up as a team or as an individual and we’ll match you with a team. I hope to see you at one of these great events, and be sure to join us for After Hours, on location at Altra Federal Credit Union!

Thanks, Trey Hunt

Join a Leadership Position at TABA

TABA board members are searching the ranks of its members to find those who want to take an active role in the leadership of our Association and the support of the homebuilding industry in our area. We are looking for interested candidates who are willing to become leaders, not just board members.

Here are a few of the requirements that are met by board members who are elected to a oneyear term: attendance at monthly board meetings; attendance at TABA general functions; investment in HOMEPAC of the Texas Association of Builders; participation on TABA committees and recruiting of new members.

If you are interested in serving as an officer or a board member, please contact Nominating Chairman John McKinney or Libby Simmons before September 1, 2019 by calling 903.561.3964 or submitting a letter of interest to lsimmons@tylerareabuilders.com.
