2007 Scholars invited to our 2008 Baseball Games
2007 Scholars are invited to be part of our Baseball Game celebrations with the Texas Rangers. Click here to read more about the games and to order tickets. We�ve got a great event planned with talks and autographs by former Rangers players to honor the Scholars. In addition, everyone purchasing a ticket through Lone Star State Scholars will receive two free tickets to a future game (ie. buy four tickets, receive 8 tickets) and everyone will also receive a free Rangers baseball hat (ie. 4 tickets = 4 hats).
Six Flags over Texas
If you are thinking about making Six Flags Over Texas part of your summer plans, we have worked out a deal with the Six Flags folks to honor and offer a discount to Lone Star State Scholars. You may purchase discounted admission tickets (good anytime this season) for $33. With each ticket purchased, you�ll also receive a certificate good for a free photo to be taken in the park. This sells for $12.99 at the park. (Order four tickets = receive four free photos). Thus, you can use these to take a family picture, as well as photos with the various Looney Tune Characters that are at the park. It�s a great deal. If you are coming in from out of town for the baseball game, Six Flags is just across the street from the ballpark. Click here to order these tickets.
Remembering Memorial Day
We hope all of you enjoyed Memorial Day earlier this week. We especially send our greetings and blessings to anyone with family serving in our United States Armed Forces. Thank you for serving our great country and making us all proud!

News from our Scholars:
Mariana Ester Riojas, a fourth grader at Lamar Elementary in Del Rio, went to visit Shumla. Her and her class learned how to make paint, read the drawings on cave walls and most importantly, how the Indians lived and survived. They got to canoe and excavate and learned so much about different plants and rocks. She is very appreciative to her teacher, Mr. Rodriguez for this wonderful learning experience.
Another Scholar writes: “My name is Robert Gallegos and I am a 7th grader at Holy Cross of San Antonio in San Antonio, Texas. I am a member of the National Junior Honor Society. I am also a member of the Science and Math Academic Team for which I qualified for State for the second year in a row. I am also a member of the middle school Golf Team and a member of The First Tee Golf Program. I also volunteer at our church and with the youth of the parish.”
