Last evening, YMCA Texas Youth and Government clubs from all over the Houston district gathered at a YMCA training facility to expand their knowledge and skills.  Delegates from many sections of the program were present: Judicial, Legislative, Media, and EGP were all well represented.

Legislative participants viewed a short video and then practiced what they had learned by going through a bill presented by Katie Gulley, an extremely qualified candidate for Speaker of the House.  The bill was chaired by Nathan Ball,  candidate for President Pro Tem of the Senate.  Joel Shrader of the Fort Bend YMCA ably served as the hearing committee clerk.

Amidst all this activity, Garrett Gibson, candidate for Governor, was supported by an enthusiastic core of committed volunteers.  He himself spoke a few words to the assembled delegates concerning his campaign and shook hands with many potential voters.  Says his campaign manager: “Garrett is committed to reaching out to people from all walks of life.  He is a candidate we can all vote for; he is a Texan!”
