Keep sound wisdom and discretion, and they will be life for your soul and adornment for your neck…………….. Then you will walk on your way securely, and your foot will not stumble…………... If you lie down, you will not be afraid; when you lie down, your sleep will be sweet…………Do not be afraid of sudden terror or of the ruin of the wicked, when it comes,for the Lord will be your confidence and will keep your foot from being caught. Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due, when it is in your power to do it……..Do not say to your neighbor, “Go, and come again, tomorrow I will give it”—when you have it with you………..Do not plan evil against your neighbor, who dwells trustingly beside you……..Do not contend with a man for no reason, when he has done you no harm.

Richard Borchard Fairgrounds: A Special Thanks for a JOB Well Done to Nueces County Judge Terry Shamsie and the Nueces County Commissioners

Robstown included

A special thanks for a job well done to County Judge Terry Shamsie and the county commissioners for their courageous vision of investment, of inclusion, and of responsibility.

Thank you for investing in the Richard Borchard Fairgrounds in Robs-town. It is a beacon of hope beckoning further private commercial development in an area that will now, thanks to them, only boom.

Thank you for including the Robs-town area in your vision of prosperity for Nueces County, recognizing that we are people who are worthy and able to evolve our city into something better than it ever was.

Though the road be long and bumpy, our goal, though it be distant, is within sight. The sight of it strengthens our resolve against those who for whatever reason see our betterment as something that lessens instead of strengthens them.

It takes vision and ability to see goodness where it was said that goodness was dead, to grow the light that changes hearts and minds and deeds.

Purpose and belief now walk with us. Hope swims in our eyes. God bless you and keep you in His protective embrace.
