*Special Olympics Victory Dance – Texas Iron Spikes has rented out Phillips Event Center for SOTX and are sponsoring the event. The Victory Dance is SOTX’s big finale to the year and an awesome event where everyone dances and celebrates the athletes' accomplishments. This is a great opportunity to see the direction of community service has taken, and we would greatly appreciate the support. Spouses and children are encouraged to come. It’s going to be a lot of fun.

Phillips Event Center

**Downtown Saturday Night – We are currently hoping to have a bar tab (funded by the alumni) at one of the following locations: Sholz Garten, The Blind Pig, The Ranch, or Qua. If you are interested in donating for the tab, please contact Neil.

***Golf Tournament Sunday - The Golf Tournament will take place at Riverside Golf Course         (1020 Grove Blvd). 9 AM is an approximate start time. We will set up tee times after we know who will be participating. We will have prizes for the top finishers, and possibly one for the bottom finisher. The rates are: $39 to share a cart, $22 to walk. If you plan on participating, please RSVP via the Facebook Group (2011 Iron Spikes Alumni Golf Tournament) or email, and please email both Neil and myself with your foursome.
