It is risky business rebelling against The Fort Worth Way in these parts.
In the picture of the pair of Trinity River Inner Tube Happy Hour imbibers there is a "Vote NO! Save The Trinity" sign.
That is a bit misleading. In Fort Worth the voters are not allowed to vote on massive public works projects in their city.
The Rebel Group calls itself the Trinity River Improvement Partnership (TRIP).
On Saturday, March 5, 2011 TRIP is hosting its premiere event at the Fort Worth Botanic Gardens. Unlike voting on public works projects, the Fort Worth public is invited to this event.
At the event you will find hors d’oeuvres. Hors d’oeuvres is fancy French-speak meaning food. In addition to food you'll also listen to speakers and view a film. I don't know for sure what the film is. It may be the infamous J.D. Granger UTA video. I've not seen this video, but I've been told it is highly informative.
TRIP has a website where you can learn more about plans to "Save a River...Save a Billion!"
Go to the Star-Telegragh to learn more about Saturday's meeting and to RSVP to make sure you reserve yourself a seat.
