Old Business:
Happy Hour Movement's First Field Trip to Nashville on March 27th.
First trip proved most successful in rejuvenating our group after a harsh winter. Additionally, CT's camper did not break down. The Hilton proved a great place to occupy a suite. Helen and Jo had "Wraslin'" World Championships Round II and this will be continued next year.
Link to the Wraslin video:

Happy Hour Movement:
Statement of Purpose:
We are a group of friends in Martin, Tennessee. Most of us are women associated with the University of Tennessee at Martin in some capacity.
We like to get together and laugh, drink, get to know each other better, and find subtle ways to bring a little enlightenment to our community (and perhaps rustle some feathers in the process). Most of us are democrats although we have no official political party.
We have no mission other than to try and provide a little joy and compassion to one another.
Happy Hour Movement Minutes for 5-5-2010 below:
Alright friends. As discussed tonight, we will no longer have a Facebook Fans Page and move into a blog for members only at this time. You can easily find our blog at this url and we are saved under the name "Happy Hour Movement"
I will start to get some of the Obama photos published here too. Only a few for now.
Here are is our "official" slate of officers for now - this may be in constant flux and if anyone doesn't like there position, feel free to make suggestions. My only take is that all members must hold offices so that everyone feels like they have some say so!

I think that you should paint Obama with Vulcan ears as per Mr. Spock. I mean, what is it with all of this logic and reason crap? We sure didn't get any of that elitist nonsense when good old Dubya was in the White House.

I love this blog and I love our Happy Hour Movement! I would add to our mission "rustling some feathers in our community," because it's fun and I think we have a lot of competence in this area.
ReplyDeleteThis is the coolest blog ever!! I wish to thank our IT and Latin Dance Specialist Julie Hill for her dedication to our cause and for creating this awesome blog. I would also like to thank our El Presidente Catherine Carithers for hosting the past two art sessions in her home and making us all feel welcome. Let's have a round of applause for the entire board for our willingness to stir things up a bit in our beloved downtown Martin. Hip-hip hurray!!!!!

This is hilarious...good job Julie. It feels so good to finally be out of the closet with my views! For so long I've felt my opinions should be kept hushed, but thanks to the happy hour movement, I'm becoming braver. Nothing like strength in numbers.
