All are welcome to this free event - not just Historical Society members. You will be given the opportunity to join the Salado Historical Society.
Noted Texas vocalist, poet, and song writer, Jeff Gore, will be our entertainer for the Salado Historical Society's Fall Chili Supper and Membership Drive. Jeff's childhood dream was to be a cowboy! As a nine year old his dream began to come true when his family moved to Sherman, TX where his dad pastored. Clyde Hale, rancher and banker, was a deacon. He took Jeff under his wing and taught him about the working side of cowboy life, such as fence building and hauling cattle to the sale barn. Jeff thought he had it made! Jeff was a member of the National FFA Chorus. Jeff's first gig singing "Cowboy Music" was for a District FFA Convention in 1979. Jeff has earned many awards through the years for his Cowboy Music but he is never prouder than when ranches invite him out to help during their big works.
The location will be the Celebration Center at Old Salado Springs (214 Royal Street). The Historical Society will provide the Chili and drinks. Please bring cornbread, salad, and/or desert.
