As we finish our fourth year and are looking toward our annual yearly founding meeting in Austin at the end of February many people have been talking about those in attendance or who were instrumental in the actual founding of the Texas Cobra Club on February 27,2000.
I have pulled together a partial list from memory and I am going to list those members in alphabetical order, and I am looking to the rest of you to search you old files, pictures, memory banks and post the many others I have left off my list. Make no mistake about it, those that had a part in, or attended the lunch meeting when the actual vote was taken to form our club WERE FOUNDING MEMBERS! I would hope we can all remember others and we can get this list of between 36-50 people together prior to this year's meeting.

1. Enzo & Paula Alibrandi
2. Drew Baird
3. Bob Brezinski
4. Paull Cass
5. Tom Canfield
6. Dick Flesher
7. Sean Kelley
8. Devin Martin
9. Pat McWorter
10. Tom Meadows
11. Gary Morris
12. Jay Nordstrom
13. Steve Parks
14. Doug Reed
15. Rob Robertson
16. Burk & Julie Rosenthal
17. John Russell
18.Gary Sharapata
19. Matt Tice
20. Terry Tilton
21. Jack (Stretch) Williams
22. Jim Woodard
23. Greg Herdlitchka

I know I have left many out-especially Austin members, but in an an effort to promote accuracy I didn't want to guess incorrectly. Please help me out and post here so I can complete this and we all will know who actually founded this club, as we are all on equal footing here.
Thanks,
John Russell
One of the founding members of the Texas Cobra Club, and proud of it!
ps. I will add names into the list as I get them. JR
