of course, everything will be refunded......
You don't need to contact Moody Gardens. Basically, we collect all of the money for the passes, and then give it to them in exchange for the passes.

I guess I will slow the train down and prepare for next year (I realy need a first).

I will still go the weekend after to help the economy. The Lone Star Rally is still a go.   http://www.lonestarrally.com/

RALLY TO REBUILD GALVESTON

Our plans to help Galveston rebuild;

    Jean Lafitte helped found Galveston and now he and his band of two wheeled pirates are coming back to rebuild!
    LSR will produce a :30 second television commercial to air as a public service announcement on all Texas television stations. This commercial will let people to know that Galveston is alive and well! The Lone Star Rally will be her Grand re-opening!

    LSR will re-print 100,000 ad cards and distribute across Texas reflecting the same message!

    We will purchase a large ad in the Houston Chronicle with he same message! We will convert our huge radio advertising campaign in Houston to help raise funds at the Rally!

    We will hold our Annual Press Conference in Galveston sometime over the next two weeks!

    We will send out weekly newsletters to our database reflecting the same message!

    We will contact all major motorcycle companies and encourage them to do the same!

    The American Motorcycle Association will send out an E-mail blast to their huge database!

    We are currently attempting to bring more major entertainers into Moody Gardens and our stages fro benefit concerts!

    Our vendors will hold Trick or Treat for the Galveston kids from 6pm-9pm on Friday night during the Rally! LSR will hold a kids costume contest. The top five kids will get new bikes!

    We will set up and manage over 20 donation stations around our venues so you can help too!

    We are developing a special Rally to Rebuild logo that can be added to the Official T-Shirt for a donation to the Rally to Rebuild Fund!

    We will produce a telethon inside of the Convention Center on Saturday of the event to raise money!

    We will donate a portion of our sales to the fund!

    If given enough space on the Seawall, LSR will provide free space to Galveston merchants who have product to sell but no place to sell it in! (Merchants still have to get insurance and pay for electricity)

    Because we expect many stores to still be closed downtown, we will add a minimum of 100 extra portable toilets to the downtown area and also increase the number on the Seawall!

    The Treasure Hunt is still on!

    Our offices were destroyed in the storm and we are just getting back on-line. Please trust the information posted on our web site and don't E-mail or call unless absolutely necessary.

we've seen that. Unfortunately, they don't have to swim....Water quality is not good right now. We also need a ton of volunteers, many who are displaced.....

It's a much different thing than a triathlon, obviously

definitely go support the island!!!!!!
