Thanks to the wonderful generosity of our friends and neighbors in Montague County, and extra special donations from the Eddie Speed Note School in Dallas, we were able to provide a really nice Christmas with wonderful presents to 125 children in the county.
This was aided greatly by a Toy Drive conceived and organized by Morgan Dennis, an Honors Student at Saint Jo High School. Morgan was able to obtain donations of a literal pickup load of new toys, as well as $700 in gift cards. These were delivered to Child Protective Services in Bowie for distribution, and Case Workers there were estatic over the great toys.
We continue to help CPS and Patsy’s House with 110 children per month, about half of which have been taken from their parents due to extensive abuse.
We’re planning some dynamic new programs this year with the goals of further long-range help for these children and programs to help stem the tide of abuse our county experiences
Please help us with this, if you can.

Montague Children Need Christmas Help
The Montague County Child Welfare Board provides Christmas presents every year to over 100 Montague County abused and neglected children who comes to our attention directly or through the Texas Child Protective Services. Presently there are 110 children on our list, with each child submitting a list of specific items they want for Christmas. Our Board members and volunteers shop directly for these items, and wrap them for the kids for Christmas. Without this, these kids would get little or no Christmas, and so this is our attempt to provide at least some level of normalcy to their lives. They often ask for basic needs……. shoes, clothing, something for their parents or a brother or sister, and usually a small toy.
We usually plan to spend a set amount on each child, based on the age of the child. For example, ages 0 to 3 years receive gifts totaling $60; ages 4 to 7 gifts of $100; ages 8 to 12 gifts of $120; and ages 13 to 18 gifts of $170..
Unfortunately, this year many of our events were rained out at the Western Heritage Roundup in Bowie, which provides us half of our annual needed funds. Since we are experiencing such a shortfall this year, rather than cut back on what we can do for these kids, we ask you if you would adopt a child and provide the funds we need to shop for their Christmas wishes.
Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated, and would play a significant part in making a kid feel loved and wanted at Christmas.
Please contact us at montaguechildren@gmail.com or call Clint Brown, Chairman, at 817/360-0317 and let us know if you can help.
Due to scheduling conflicts and charity events by other worthy organizations, we won’t have our usual Gala this year. We thank you so much for your past support, and ask that you continue your support by contributing to our Western Heritage Roundup and Ranch Rodeo taking place in Bowie on September 29th and 30th, 2012:

Sponsorship Invitation
Welcome to the 4th Annual Montague County, Texas Western Heritage Roundup on September 29th and 30th in Bowie, Texas.
We need your support in raising funds to benefit the epidemic number of abused and neglected children of Montague County. Currently Child Protective Services is working with over 100 children, and your Child Welfare Board is providing them with needed help in emergency assistance, as well as education, health, and personal needs. No fund-raising Gala is planned for this year, due to conflicting schedules with other needy organizations, and so we ask that you consider making a donation to this Roundup to help these kids in our county.
The weekend will be packed with fun and excitement for the entire family. A wonderful part of the Roundup will be the Western and Ranch Expo with vendors in the newly built Bowie Community Center just behind the Rodeo Arena. Also featured in the Roundup is Chuck Wagon Cooking, Cowboy Christian Symposium, Pedal Tractor Pull for Kids (ages 5-12), and Pokey the Clown WRCA Jr. Ranch Rodeo. Other new events include Sheep Dog Herding Exhibition and Cowboy Church on Sunday morning.
In addition, the Montague County Child Welfare Board will be hosting the “Deep in the Heart of Texas” Ranch Rodeo both days. Check out the website for more details and contact information at www.westernheritageroundup.com.
We would greatly appreciate your Sponsorship and Rodeo Program ad.
