Happy Birthday, Marines

Did you know that today is the 234th anniversary of the Marine Corps?

USMC Day celebrates the birth of the United States Marine Corps. The Marine Corps were created during the Revolutionary War.

The Continental Congress of the newly created United States of America, authorized the creation of the Continental Marines on November 10, 1775. It was later renamed the U.S. Marine Corps. It is often abbreviated as USMC.

The Marine Corps has proudly participated in every war that has involved the United States.

If you see a Marine today, thank them for their contributions to protecting our country. Active or retired, they deserve our thanks and appreciation.

And here are some more pics from the car show!

New additions to Auxiliary Staff

HBQVB unanimously voted two of its members to the auxiliary staff tonight at its monthly board meeting.

Steve Adler, who helped manage Daniel's Trucking last season, headed a division in the Lomangino Tournament this past summer, and has done much more, has also volunteered to relieve Chuck Schub, a board member for over 15 years as the head of Signs & Sponsors.

HBQVB wishes Mr. Schub much luck and success in leaving the board of directors

Mike Otero, who has expressed his interest and has donated much of his time to the T-Ball division has opted to assume responsibility for the division as a whole, relieving but not replacing Ed Velez, who has been in charge of the position for as long as most people can remember.

Mr. Velez will maintain his primary role as the secretary on the executive board.

HBQVB congratulates both men on their new responsibilities and wishes everyone the best of luck.

Did you know that today is Chaos Never Dies Day:

Chaos Never Dies Day recognizes the turmoil in modern, everyday life. Are things a little crazy at home? Is school a little on the wild side? Is your work place hectic and disorderly? We thought so.

Just when things seem to calm down at work and home, along comes something to disrupt your life. Yes, disorder is everywhere. Hectic schedules, changes to plans, unexpected tasks and chores, the list goes on and on and on.......

Today is designed for you. It's a day to recognize the chaos in your life. You can best celebrate this day, by recognizing that chaos never dies. Rather, its a way of life. You can partake in this special day, by putting just a little order back into your life. You can start, by picking one thing that is really disrupting your life, and change it...for the good.

On the bright side: If you think your life is chaotic today, just wait until the holiday season arrives.

Did you Know? There is a scientific Chaos Theory?

We hope you have a calm and serene Chaos Never Dies Day!!!

By the way, here are some more pictures from this year's competition.
