CHRISTMAS PARADE submitted by Robert Maxwell Case
The 28th Annual Canyon Lake Christmas Parade will be held on the second
Saturday of December, December 9, 2006, starting at 11:00 a.m. Last
year's parade was watched by a crowd of more than 1000 and included
dozens of parade units, many of which will be returning this year.
Grand Marshall of this year's parade is Comal County Sheriff Bob
Holder. Startzville Realtor Jeani Richie of Mickey Ferrell Realtors
will again be Master of Ceremonies. Linda Epley of Canyon Bend Storage
and Robert Maxwell Case, Entertainer, return to the Parade Committee.
Numerous participants and sponsors are letting us know they will be a
part of the parade again this year.
Entry Forms have been mailed to last year's participants. The Entry
Form is also available on the Chamber website. Prize categories will be
"Christmas Past," "Christmas Present," and "Christmas Future."
As usual the Chamber reserves the right to have the one and only Santa
Claus. Let's make the 28th Annual Canyon Lake Christmas Parade the best
one yet!
In addition to the Christmas Parade, enjoy a FLYOVER of vintage
aircraft by the Central Texas Wing of the Commemorative Air Force,
weather permitting! The following planes are, at this time, planning
to take part: Two CJ6's (Yack 18's), the B-25 and two T6's.
Sponsorships for this FLYOVER are needed for this wonderful part of the
Christmas Parade! Contact Linda at the Chamber to contribute at
830-964-2223.
A Special Guest at the parade this year won't be recognized as
himself, but a huge THANK YOU to Solomon Fuss!

Tune in on Thursdays at 1:00pm to KGNB 1420 AM to listen to Looking at
the Lake, our 30-minute show focused on local issues, news, membership,

offer our members the opportunity to sponsor this show each week. The
sponsor's spot is a 'dedicated 8-minutes' plus four 15-second
mentions throughout the program. Write your own script, perform it
yourself, or we will have someone present it for you. We began a new
13-week cycle of shows last week and are still seeking Sponsors. As a

With the new commitment, our new cost for each show is $250. This is

'STARS OVER CANYON LAKE' Canyon Lake Chamber of Commerce invites
you to participate in our "Stars Over Canyon Lake" Christmas
Project. We have been fortunate this year to have the generous
commitment from Pedernales Electric Cooperative to hang and supply
electricity plus the hook ups for four lighted STARS in each town -
Hancock, Startzville and Sattler, plus hang four Christmas Tree pole
decorations, too! We are also fortunate we have received all twelve
sponsorships for those TWELVE STARS! That is a pure sign of people
coming together to achieve a community-minded goal! In an effort to
show even more festive spirit plus benefit two local non-profit
organizations ($10 from the sale of each star), we invite all
businesses in the area to light up your business in seasonal attire by
purchasing specially made lighted STARS from Tish's Décor & More
(964-6050), or simply decorate with your own lights and stars. Next
year we hope to add to the 'Sponsored Collection'. Thank you to
those who chose to Sponsor a STAR, and to those who wanted to, but the
goal was fulfilled! Get behind the Project and Light Up Canyon Lake!

Generally, appreciation means some blend of thankfulness, admiration,
approval, and gratitude. In the financial world, something that
"appreciates" grows in value. With the power tool of appreciation, you
get the benefit of both perspectives: as you learn to be consistently
thankful and approving, your life will grow in value. ~ Doc Childre and
Howard Martin, The HeartMath Solution

For a long time it had seemed to me that life was about to begin.....
But there was always some obstacle in the way, something to be gotten
through first, some unfinished business, time still to be served, a
debt to be paid.Then life would begin. At last it dawned on me that
these obstacles were my life. ~ Alfred Souza
