Buster Baldwin, County Commissioner
Kerr County
Kerrville, Texas
Dear Buster,
On behalf of the Hill Country Archeological Association, and in conjunction with
Texas Historical Commission's declaration, I am requesting our county announce
October as Texas Archeology Month in Kerr County.
Our association has held free public outreach programs each year since 1999 in
the form of a riverside rendezvous at the former state park and at Kerr Arts and
Cultural Center. These events are presented to identify artifacts, demonstrate
conservation archeology while learning about the prehistory and history of our
rich area and give families a wholesome, fun day of learning together. Our
people are not collectors, instead we let landowners know what they have and
we record for history with landowners permission only.
This year's event will be held on Saturday, October 15'h, at Kerr Arts and Cultural
Center from 10 a.m. to 4 .m. We invite the commissioners and their families to
come anytime during the day.
Sincerely,
;~
