From Paul and Kathy Mulkey: Update: The CASI Chili Cook-off scheduled for September 29th-30th in Hobbs, NM, has been MOVED to the Eagles Lodge parking lot, 1200 E. White Street, Hobbs, NM. The activites in the Terlingua Trails such as Live Music & the auction will not be on site. There will be limited RV hook-ups and plenty of dry camping available. The charities have been changed to Saturday Eagles’ various charities and Sunday will be a Pod fund raising Chili-cookoff. Everything in the Terlingua Trails advertising these two cook-offs will remain the same. There will be a Pot-Luck on Friday night which will include hamburgers. Any questions, please call Paul Mulkey at 575-390-6184 or Kathy Mulkey at 575-390-6675, or email at katpaul2006@hotmail.com.
From Ralph Hay: To All 320 Members:
I have decided to run for Alcalde again, and I am asking for everyone’s support and vote.
From Glenda Vrba: ATTENTION TICC CHILI COOKS:
As always we need volunteers for the Friday Events at
TICC. We will need judges for the Salsa.
Beans and Wings competitions as well as table monitors. Please take the time to sign up as a volunteer.
You can contact me on FB, send me an email at glendavrba@gmail.com , or call me at
469-386-5600 and I’ll put you on the list. We also need volunteers for veggie cutting Thursday afternoon at 3:00 pm in the main pavilion. Please bring a knife, cutting board and a jug of water to wash the veggies. Everyone knows we don’t have running water at the ranch in Terlingua…
Also as a reminder we will be collecting Christmas toys for the school children in Terlingua at TICC again this year. These children many times would get nothing for Christmas if it wasn’t for the generosity of the chili cooks. And yes we will be more than happy to take cash donations if you don’t have time to buy a toy. All toys should be unwrapped. Let’s make every child in Terlingua happy this year at Christmas by bringing an extra toy or two to share! The school can also use wrapping paper so bring a couple of rolls with you they don’t take up much room.
We are in need of someone with a truck to go to Alpine on Wednesday to pick up the judging supplies, water and sodas. If you can make the trip please contact me for all the details.
I’d like to just say thank you to everyone for your support of CASI and the various charities this past year and I look forward to seeing you down the chili trail soon.. See ya in Terlingua!
From Bruce Pinnell: The
CASI Ranch will have WiFi Service for TICC provided
by Hill Country WiFi. The service will be available from Oct 26th to Nov 4th
@ 7AM. The signal will be broadcast from the
judging area, the River Runner area, and Krazy Flats area. This should reach most of the ranch. The cost will
be $5/day or $20 for the whole event. It will be offered on first come,
first served basis. The service is
limited to 100
users so sign up early.
To access the internet, select the ‘Rancho CASI’ network from your
laptop. Then, open your internet browser, select your plan (daily vs. whole event) and enter your credit card info on
the secure web page. That’s it. Because the service uses relatively low capacity internet circuits (the fastest available in the area), you need to be aware of some restrictions before you sign up. These restrictions are necessary to allow more people to have access to basic internet services. The following uses will not be allowed, except in an emergency: Large updates from Microsoft, Adobe or Apple websites, video streaming from web cams, or recorded TV (Hulu), audio streaming from TV or radio stations, or video intensive gaming. There is no restriction for normal email and web browsing activities. There will be several websites that have free access. These include the CASI website, major sponsor websites, the Weather Channel, and others that may be added for public safety reasons.
If you have questions about the service, please contact Bruce Pinnell at 210.372.0469.
