SOS Alliance Holiday Party

November 26 @ 12:56 am

Basic Info

Date:
November 26, 2024
Time:
12:56 am

This is our premier event celebrating the heart and soul of Austin – Barton Springs. We will get together on Thursday, December 6th from 6pm until midnight. Last year over 700 people attended this not-to-be-missed party! It’s all about celebrating (and preserving) what makes Austin special. The party will feature local foods, legendary Austin musicians, hundreds of friends, and our signature silent auction. Hundreds of local businesses, artisans and professionals contribute to this auction. This year we will celebrate 20 years of action and advocacy to save Barton Springs. On August 8th, 1992, sixty-four percent of Austin voters said "yes" to save Barton Springs by approving the SOS citizen initiated ordinance. The ordinance remains in place today to protect the water quality of Barton Springs. We incorporated SOS in November 1992, following the SOS vote, because we knew Barton Springs needed a full-time advocate to prevent pollution and excessive pumping. Please consider sponsoring this special 20th anniversary event or making a donation to the Save Our Springs Alliance. SOS has been the only consistent and uncompromising voice for Barton Springs for 20 years. By making SOS Alliance part of your charitable giving, you can make sure that Barton Springs flow as strong and clear in 20 years as they do today. SOS is a 501 (c)(3) charitable organization and your donations are tax-deductible. Thank you for your consideration, and I look forward to seeing you there to begin the next 20 years of citizen action to save Barton Springs! Best, Karin P.S. All sponsorship donations will be matched 50% by the Kirk Mitchell Environmental Law Fund – so please donate generously to extend your charitable dollars for Barton Springs.
