Message from the Chair
It was my privilege to once again serve as Chair of the Board of Directors. The Board and Staff did an outstanding job in managing our affairs, keeping up with all the families we serve, and supporting first responders at their greatest time of need.
I am personally proud of their work, including the inaugural UTV Raffle with Hoffpauir Polaris and the 2nd Annual Birdies & Badges Golf Tournament at ShadowGlen Golf Club. These and other events – such as the Peace*Love*Happiness Charity Motorcycle Ride and our annual Awards Ceremony – showcase the support of our community for our first responders.
This coming year marks the 40th anniversary of The Club’s commitment in Central Texas. We look forward to celebrating this milestone throughout the year and hope you will join us at any of the upcoming events.
On behalf of the Board, I thank our members, sponsors, donors, and volunteers for your continued support of The 100 Club of Central Texas and our local first responders.

Message from the Executive
We are extremely thankful for the growth The Club has experienced over the last four decades and are looking forward to the next 40 years. We have been honored to support many first responders and their families during this time thanks to the support of our community.
I was particularly moved by the Hyde Park Baseball and Softball teams, who chose to recognize fallen first responders during their First Responders Night games. The students came together to thank the families of those who gave their all. I have been touched by the generosity and thoughtfulness of so many in our community and cannot express what it means to our organization and those we serve.
Part of our mission is to ensure that all those we serve know that we will remember them today, tomorrow, and in the future. With that in mind, we proudly stay connected with families who have lost a loved one throughout the years. We enjoy connecting with our families regularly and look forward to more opportunities to spend time together in the coming year. Thank you for your support.
Grahame Jones
Executive Director
