The day of April 14th began with a memorial bell toll and roll call honoring 34 Texas Rangers buried at the Center Point Cemetery.   There was an encampment of Former Texas Rangers at Center Point Park.  A great BarBQ lunch fundraiser was held 11am-2pm.  Local student oil paintings were displayed for guest to vote on their favorite painting.

This event would not have been possible without the help and support of many:  the Former Texas Ranger Association; from Center Point ISD, the superintendent of schools, Cody Newcomb, and the Art teacher, Karen Blackledge; Walter 'Sid' Jones who did an amazing job hand tooling leather holsters for the raffle; the HEB stores of Boerne and Kerrville; Fritz Mini-Mart; Center Point Volunteer Fire Department; Center Point United Methodist Church; and to Catie and Bennie Harvill for the essentials Port-aPotties.

The Memorial service for the Texas Rangers was well attended showing great honor for 34 brave Texas Rangers laid to rest in Center Point.  The Art Show had a lot of votes and the two students whose oil paintings tied for Favorite painting received gift certificates, along with their Art teacher.  The Raffle of a replica 1847 Colt Walker with tooled holster and Bowie knife with tooled sheath and the BarBQ lunch raised almost $6000 for CPAHPA!
