One of the neat things at this year's state convention was our choice of three articulate under-30 delegates/alternates from CD22 to represent us at the convention. One of those, Trey Stinnett, will be blogging the convention for us.

But he's seeking some financial assistance to defray the convention costs, estimated to be some $5000 for him and his parents (traveling as his guests).

If you can, consider dropping a few bucks in the kitty to help out this fine young man, who I believe to be one of the rising stars in the GOP in our area and the state of Texas as a whole.

Here's the letter he sent out to local GOP activists.

Friends,

The time is here. The 2008 Republican National Convention is upon us. As I make final arrangements to head out to Minnesota, I find myself more excited than I have ever been about any singular event. These next days will mark some of the most significant in my life. I am proud to go to Minneapolis representing Congressional District 22 from the great state of Texas, the Houston Young Republicans, the youth of our nation, and most importantly, representing Christ.

As I promised at the RPT Convention, I have put up a blog that I will post to frequently during the events of next week: in detail, with images. You can keep up with all that is going on in the twin cities from my perspective by going to the link provided below. IÂ’m also raising money to help defray some of the expense of the trip there as well. In addition, you may also receive updates in your email (sans some content and images.) Just follow the links below

All in all, I know this will be a great event as we gather to nominate Sen. John McCain, the next president of these United States. Thousands of like-minded, principled men and women coming together to celebrate what it means to be a Republican, and what it means to be an American.

Check out his bio here -- you'll be quite impressed at what this 23-year-old has accomplished in his life and his record of involvement.
