Stories
Kerrville Economic Development Corp.
Gil Salinas provided the program on the KEDC mission and accomplishments.
 
 
The KEDC is funded by the 4b sales tax in Kerrville. The funds generated by this 1/2 cent sales tax can be used for economic development such as infrastructure for new or expanding businesses. The recent Killdeer Manufacturing company that moved to town,  or recent James Avery expansions are examples of the use of the funds.  They can also be used for quality of life projects, like the river trail.
 
The Kerrville EDC focuses on several areas including Corporate Recruitment, which works to bring appropriate companies to the area, which adds to the tax base and provides good paying jobs.  They also work with local schools, helping find grants to train high school students in various fields, to help bolster the Workforce in the area. Business Retention and Expansion is important, which helps existing business grow and prosper.
 
The EDC also helps with Entrepreneurship, organizing events and forums to help small businesses. And finally, they provide Marketing and Branding for our area to attract new businesses to the area.
October Birthdays
Prayer and Pledge
Gabriel Alonzo led us in the prayer and pledge.
 
Rotary News you can Use
The District Conference is November 9-11 in Kerrville. We are trying to fill 100 backpacks for young people at risk. Toiletries are especially needed. You can donate the items or funds to help with this worthy cause.
 
Pints for Polio is October 22 at the Trailhead Beer Garden at the Schreiner University Campus, 3-6 pm. Wine or other adult beverages are needed for the wheelbarrow raffle, so if you can donate a bottle, see Amber Thomason. Sponsors are needed for this event. You can earn Paul Harris points for donations- see Kristy Vandenberg.
 
Dave Samuel is volunteering at Morgan's Wonderland in San Antonio for their Halloween event. He is taking candy with him for the kids (no peanut products), so if you are able, bring some candy to give to Dave for his trip.
 
Dave Samuel is also heading up the annual Ringing the Bell at Gibson's to raise funds for the Salvation Army as they help those in need. Look for more information to come soon.
 
Thank you to all who donated blood during the recent Blood Drive.
 
The quarterly Trash Pick up was a success, and a big thank you goes to all who participated, and to Todd Odom who coordinates this event.
