This post about IABC Houston’s involvement with the City of Houston to promote social media communications among neighborhoods has been interrupted by Hurricane Ike. Everything has been interrupted by Ike. It’s Wednesday or as the media say Day 4 of recovery and I’m still without power. I am writing this from my boss Tracy’s house who lives less than a mile from me. She has power. I’m thinking it’s because she lives next to a district court judge.
I was devastated to hear about Brennan’s being destroyed by fire and the folks injured in the blaze. We have canceled our September 25 luncheon that would have been held at Brennan’s and are encouraging those who had planned to attend (or even those who couldn’t make it) to donate that amount to the medical fund that has been established for the father and daughter who were caught in the fire. Watch the Web site and Insider newsletter for more information on how to do that. We are searching for a new venue to our luncheons and hope to have news of that soon.
We will also reschedule other events we had planned this week–new member’s breakfast and networking happy hour–to sometime in October.
It will be good to get back into a regular routine. I know that will take longer for some of us than others. And I wish everyone the best. Until the next post, take care.
