Please note the October meeting has been rescheduled to better fit the calendar of those attending the SWPPA/TPPA Convention in Arlington. We want what we take in at the convention to be absorbed, before attending yet another information-packed seminar right here in College Station. You may have noticed our featured speaker will present a program in Arlington. The two programs will be completely different, so you will not be receiving the same information.As usual, our meeting will be at the Bluefish Studio at 4058 Highway 6 South, Suite 200 in College Station. Please call 979-777-6834 if you have any trouble finding us. We’ll begin at 6:30 with Social time and Print Competition, and begin the meeting at 7:00pm with an interesting vendor, Capture Market Media Video Business Card, and shortly thereafter begin the program.

We hope to see you soon!
