MINUTES:  The minutes of the September 16 meeting are on our website.

MEETING:  Usually the West Galveston Island Property Owners Association has their meetings the third Saturday of the month but due to conflicts, we will meet October 28 instead still at the Galveston Country Club, 14228 Stewart Road , starting at 8:30 AM with breakfast burritos and the meeting starting at 9:00 AM.

PROGRAM:  We are pleased to have the Galveston Regional Chamber of Commerce C-Crewe present their “My Galveston” program.  This is a great program and one you will not want to miss.  They will have an overview of all things about the Chamber of Commerce and give an update how the “My Galveston” program is going.
