Message from the DAD President
Hello to all members and friends of DAD
I am looking forward to spring after a long wet, cold winter. I hope to see
some more fun activities, and enjoyable events filling up our DAD calendar.
If you have any ideas and/or desire to see happen here at the Dallas Deaf
Club, please share with me or one of Officers/Board Members.
I am glad we were able to complete the spring cleaning and paint touch ups
inside the clubhouse. Christian Nicolay was able to come by to help a bit
with exterior paint removal before the guys, Preston Ashley, Sr, Alfredo
Gonzales, Jesse Carrizales, David Normand and Mitchel Bien was able to do
the exterior painting of our clubhouse after a couple weeks of rain. DAD
Clubhouse is no longer blue! It is in beige color which blends nicely along
with our next doors church and “Klub Hot”.
We, the new 2010 Officers/Board members, had our first meeting last February
27, 2010. I appreciate your patience with me when I was presiding the
meeting. It was awkward yet I have gotten positive feedbacks on how I
handled the meeting.
