HILL COUNTRY RIDE for AIDS REGISTRATION AND KICKOFF PARTY TONIGHT!

Getting an early start on preparation and fundraising for the 25th anniversary of the Hill Country Ride for AIDS with a kickoff party and boot-scooting tonight. Won't you help me reach my fundraising goal of $8000?

You can make your donation at https://p2p.onecause.com/hcra2024/ted-smith/donate.

Thanks in advance for your support!

(I've already donated $500 of my own money.) Thank you SO much for your generosity-- especially to those who have already donated, and those who have donated in previous years!

With gratitude, TED

I love the community of intentional kindness that builds around the riders and volunteers each year, especially among first-time riders.

MEMORIAL SERVICE for TOM O'MEARA

Tom's memorial service will be held at 11:00 am on Wednesday, December 6, 2023, at Shepherd of the Hills Presbyterian Church at 5226 West William Cannon Dr.

The family have asked that everyone wear something green, which was Tom's favorite color (as might be expected of a person of Irish descent :)

Hope to see some Hill Country riders there in honor of Tom's life!

RIP. Tom O'Meara

I was so sad to learn of the death this morning of one of the legacy riders of Hill Country Ride for AIDS. Tom and I rode almost every year to represent the original riders of HCRA going back to 2000. He was always supportive of new riders on the trail.

Happy Trails, Tom. May your memory be a blessing (it already is!)
