As has been mentioned - EVERYONE THAT IS GOING TO THE TEXAS SHOW NEXT WEEK PLEASE LOOK FOR THE SWSGA TABLE -

The Texas Association has been kind enough to let us have a table near the registration to advertize Bud' Bash and sell raffle tickets on some of the items that we are raffling off in Yuma.

ALL MONEY GOES TO BUD

There was lots of talk about Bud's Bash in Dallas.

If everyone comes that said they would try to make it Yuma may double in size for the day.

Lots and lots of people sent their best to Bud and said to say Happy Birthday to him.

I will try to mention all at the Bash.

Hello everybody!
I'm posting this for "Chuck Back". He wants you all to know that he'll be there. He is currently without a computer, and doesn't know when the people will get out there to hook it up.

"Happy Birthday Bud !"

We are so excited about Bud's party! We are calling in the troops to help us throw the most fun Birthday Bash for Bud EVER! We have a lot of great musicians coming, lots of food, and lots of fun! You are all invited to join us. The vendors and artists from the steel shows have been so wonderful to give us items to auction off. Thanks a million! If you have any questions, call Merrill at (928)345-0883 See you next Saturday!

Joe Naylor · Post by **Joe Naylor** » 23 Mar 2009 9:03 am

I just got an advanced look at the schedule and It is an unbeliveable group of players. I am honered to be a part of this Bash / show.

Rick Jackson · Post by **Rick Jackson** » 23 Mar 2009 6:07 pm

It is coming quickly, 5 more days and I can't wait. I spoke with Bud and Geri and they are very excited. It is amazing that in such a short period of time, the SWSGA members have put together what promises to be a great day of music and fellowship. Hope as many of you can come out as possible. Bud will be telling road stories, some you can even repeat

Look forward to seeing you all on saturday from 11:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.....rj

I was hoping we could make it for Buds Birthday, however my two brothers, Charles and Jimmy are coming from Escondido California to visit on the 28th, to celebrate Jimmy's birthday. We will be thinking of you all, Happy birthday Bud.
