• (24 Jan 00)
A meeting was held at the Stage Stop Inn in Pleasanton TX by the Atascosa County Resource Conservation & Development Committee. The Coordinator Bertha Venegas noted some Computers had been donated by Vice President Al Gore through the Hassle Free Community Project. They have been allocated one per County. The Atascosa County computer will go to ATASCOSA COUNTY GENEALOGICAL SOCIETY LIBRARY, INC. A big Thank You to Al Gore and to the committee for choosing the ACGSL. It is a much needed resource for the Library. We have already gotten a tower to go with it and is being installed by Greg Hernandez, our member. (ACGSL)
