If anyone is interested in joining the Houston Rodeo Wine Garden committee, shoot me a DM. Tons of fun, good way to meet some people, and a great cause!

Is it too late to get involved this year? I tried to sign up for a committee right after the rodeo last year and couldn’t find any of the fun committees.

Not sure re: wine garden. I believe there are still committees looking for people though.

Can you help with any resource to know more about this? I am an amateur wine enthusiast and would love to be a part of this!

Go to the HLSR website and read up on the different committees and ways to become involved

I did it a few years ago and can’t imagine doing it as a consultant…you have to work several weekday shifts (had to take off work at 2-3pm to make it there in time) and it consumes basically full weekend days for those shifts. If you’re traveling or even have a local consulting gig, you wouldn’t get the perk of being able to attend 60% of the concerts (weekday) anyway. All to say, ask the right questions before joining because it can be extremely political/toxic and not worth the time invested

A couple of points:
1. Yes you will likely be assigned a couple of weekday shifts but you are able to trade for days that work with your schedule. The total commitment is 5 shifts over the course of the rodeo
2. Yes the weekday shift start early but if you’re job doesn’t give you flexibility to volunteer for charity for a couple of days in a month then I’d say your job is the toxic one
3. Not sure about the politics/toxicity you’re talk about but clearly you did not enjoy it

Thanks associate, wanted to know from the other side.
I’m on the transportation committee and wanted to switch until I got into mba school so everything’s off for the next 2 years :/

I will love to join, but I am unable to DM you.

Awesome. That might be something that a couple of my friends and I are interested in. I will ask them and then send you a message. Thank you for sharing this :)

I might be interested in that. What all does that entail? I really want to get involved in more things in the community but I also have a very busy work schedule so I don't want to commit and then not be able to be there.

Cavatappi in Roasted Red Pepper Cream Sauce

Tired of of the same old boring tomato marinara sauce? Try a roasted red pepper cream sauce!

Red bell peppers are roasted in the oven until sweet. It is then blended with caramelized onions, garlic, red pepper flakes, sun dried tomato paste, and cream into a silky, smooth and velvety sauce. Finish the sauce with a knob of butter and coat your pasta. Cavatappi works well here. Don’t forget to shave a little Pecorino Romano
