(Community Matters) Last night Steven and I co-hosted a fundraiser for Mayor Pro Tem Brewster McCracken’s race for mayor. Taylor Andrews coordinated the event and hosted it in his 43rd floor penthouse at the 360 Condos. Super duper crowd in attendance.
Mayor Pro Tem Brewster McCracken
Taylor Andrews
other hosts include Bettie Naylor, John Hildreth, David Smith, John Hogg, Celia Israel, David Garza, Chris Long, Tim McCabe, Richard Hartgrove, Gary Cooper, Todd Chessher, Charles Gentry, Paul Hilliard, Danny Hamilton, Lew Aldridge, Dennis Karbach, Robert Browning, Eric Behrens, Stan Young, Michael Smothers, Sergio Durante, Bob Dailey, Jordan Herman and David Kurio.
The crowd was enthusiastic and generous, most acknowledging the choice was between two good council members, Brewster who wants to be proactive, focusing on jobs and economic expansion during these challenging times and Lee who prefers to hunker down and survive the economic storm. The problem with the latter is that the new industrial epicenters for clean energy technology will be decided during the next two years and Austin can’t afford to lose this opportunity. Additionally, Brewster is enthusiastic and extraordinarily hard working. Lee has always been lukewarm about the race – it took a draft Lee campaign to even convince him to run.
John Hildreth
John should be an elected official. He provided an articulate endorsement & introduction of Brewster.
