Second annual Victoria musicians reunion

Transcription

1 Second annual Victoria musicians reunion On a Sunday afternoon in June, four local musicians were honored for their many years of service to Tejano music at the Club Westerner. Local music players that have contribute to the Tejano and country music genre from Victoria, Texas and the home-grown music scene for decades were recognized at the second annual reunion and presented with awards for their life-long achievements. The following gentlemen were recognized: Francisco G. Garcia, better known as Panchito Dale Shine Garcia, now at the age of 80 years old, was the middle child from a family of thirteen children. In 1955, he was taught to play the accordion by his brother. He also learned to, play the guitar, but the accordion became his passion. His passion took him far. In 1957, he started the band known as El Conjunto Alamo and played all over South Texas. His specialty was Ranchera music which he wrote many polkas and even recorded some. He rubbed shoulders at the Club Westerner with big names, such as Freddy Fender, Flaco Jimenez, just to name a few. When Panchito played, the crowd would stop dancing, just to see and hear him play. His talent captivated the crowd. In 1974, during a show in Corpus Christi, the crowd called out for a polka by saying dale shine, which is a slang that means go with it. Panchito played an unnamed polka he had written and that night he named it Dale Shine. The name stuck and as time went by, he became known as Panchito Dale Shine Garcia. Panchito is also known as the Accordion doctor. Not too many have the talent to repair and tune such a delicate and complex instrument. And he is still active and writes polkas and performs at family functions, but most of all he is now instrumental in teaching young musicians how to play the accordion. Henry Garcia started playing guitar at the age of 14. He was taught by Leslie Monroe and inspired by Jay Palacios.

Bland Proctor was named the new chairman of the Victoria College Board of Trustees during the board s May 21 meeting. Proctor, who has served as the District 3 representative on Victoria College s Board of Directors since 2011, replaced Ron Walker, who stepped down after a 10-year tenure as chairman in May. It s an honor to be elected by my fellow trustees to assume the chairman s position, and I am humbled to be following Ron Walker s tenure of exemplary leadership, said Proctor, who is a Victoria attorney. Exciting times are ahead for VC, and I look forward to working with VC President Dr. David Hinds and his outstanding administrative team. I would like to publicly and personally thank Ron for his mentorship as I came on as a new president at Victoria College almost three years ago, Hinds said. We are excited to have Bland Proctor take over as chair of our Board of Trustees at Victoria College. Luis Guerra will continue to serve as vice chair, and Dr. Daniel Cano will take over the role of secretary. Walker will remain as a trustee. Bland has the full support of his fellow board members, Hinds said. He is a long-serving member and will bring his many talents, intellect and dedication to bear in this new role. We are fortunate at VC to have such a dedicated board. Proctor said he looks forward to addressing challenges facing higher education. While maintaining the longstanding practice of sound budgeting and fiscal effectiveness, we will address the modern-day challenges facing higher education and ensure that Victoria College has what it needs to prepare our students for the demands of the modern-day workforce, Proctor said. Whether it is an associate degree or a certificate, a post-high school education increases one s earning potential and improves quality of life.

2 2 Revista de Victoria, June Kick off grilling season with food safety in mind For many Americans, the summer grilling and travel season begins this upcoming weekend. The U.S. Department of Agriculture s (USDA) Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) wants to make sure you and your family avoid food poisoning this summer. An estimated 128,000 Americans are hospitalized with food poisoning each year, but foodborne illnesses can be prevented during summer months by properly handling perishable foods during travel, and by using a food thermometer when grilling. If you re traveling to your favorite grilling location in a local park, or simply grilling in your backyard, perishable food items, including raw meat and poultry, need to be handled safely before they hit the grill. Bacteria grow rapidly in warm temperatures, so perishable foods need to be kept at 40 F or below to reduce bacterial growth. Perishable foods that are held above 40 F for more than two hours should not be consumed. In hot weather (above 90 F), food should be discarded if it sits out for more than one hour. The best way to keep food cold during the summer when you re away from home is to use a cooler. Consider packing beverages in one cooler and perishable food in another cooler. The beverage cooler may be opened frequently, causing the temperature inside of the cooler to fluctuate and become unsafe for perishable foods. Prevent juices from raw meat and poultry from cross-contaminating other items in your cooler by placing raw meats in waterproof containers before placing them in the cooler. Ensure you have all the tools and utensils you may need for grilling before heading out to the Janice López-Muñoz, BS, MSIH, Public Affairs Specialist, Office of Public Affairs and Consumer Education Food Safety and Inspection Service, USDA.

Use the first set to handle raw items and the other for cooked foods. Plates or containers for cooked items. Never place cooked foods on the same plate or container that held raw meat or poultry. Before eating any meat or poultry you have grilled, verify any potential illness-causing bacteria has been destroyed by using a food thermometer. Use the following safe internal temperature guidelines for your meat and poultry to ensure they are done: Food safety tips. Contributed art. Beef, pork, lamb and veal (steaks, roasts and chops): 145 F (63 C) with a three-minute rest time Ground meats: 160 F (71 C) Whole poultry, poultry breasts and ground poultry: 165 F (74 C) Once finished, make sure all leftovers are refrigerated or put on ice within two hours after cooking, or one hour if the temperature is above 90 F. Leftovers should be consumed within three to four days when refrigerated. Need more food safety information?

5 Revista de Victoria, June Volunteer at the Food Bank this summer Caterpillar employees at the Food Bank. Contributed photo. by Meridith Byrd As you might imagine, feeding nearly 30,000 people each month takes a lot of work. Even with the incredible, dedicated staff we have at the Food Bank, we just do not have the manpower to accomplish everything that needs to be done. We rely heavily on volunteers to help with essential tasks; our volunteers are essential to fulfilling our mission of helping to heal the hurt of hunger in our area. Who can volunteer? Nearly everyone can volunteer with us, though we do ask that an adult accompany children under the age of 18. Please wear comfortable clothing and closed-toed shoes; no sandals or flip-flops. When can people volunteer? We accept volunteers from 8:00 12:00 and 1:00 5:00 Monday through Thursday, and 8:00 12:00 on Fridays. We have additional Volunteer Days on the 2nd and 4th Saturdays of each month from 8:00 12:00. Does the Food Bank accept large groups? YES! We love large groups of volunteers! If your group (at least 10 people) is unable to be here during working hours, we can decide to stay open after hours on a weeknight. Please call the Food Bank at to schedule an evening for your large group. What do volunteers do at the Food Bank? Repacking In our warehouse we have large bins of dry beans, rice, and coffee. Before we can provide these foods to our partner food pantries, our volunteers repackage them into smaller Ziploc-sized bags. Bagging produce Similar to repackaging the beans and rice, if we have large quantities of fruits or vegetables, they must be put into grocery bags so that we can provide them to families at our mobile distribution sites. Sorting - We receive near-daily food donations from retail stores and food drives, so there are always bins of unsorted canned goods, cereal, beverages, pasta, and more. Volunteers are crucial to getting these sorted into individual boxes so that they can be moved into our warehouse and made available to food pantries. Landscaping duties As a nonprofit, we must make very wise use of the funds we have. We do not hire anyone to maintain the property around the Food Bank, so the mowing, weed eating, and other landscaping duties are either performed by our staff (provided they have the time) or volunteers. Senior bags We provide food to seniors who live in low income housing complexes, so our volunteers fill bags with a variety of canned goods and other food for these seniors. Assembling boxes of food Volunteers assemble our Rescue Boxes, which contain 2-3 days worth of nonperishable items: rice, beans, dried fruit, canned goods, and more. I want to help but don t have time to volunteer what can I do? Consider holding a food or fund drive on our behalf! Ask your coworkers, church members, neighbors or friends to bring nonperishables or monetary donations to you. Set the food aside in bags or boxes, then call the Food Bank at when you are ready for the donations to be picked up. We will make it as easy for you as possible. We couldn t do the work we do without our dedicated volunteers! Please contact the Food Bank if you would like to volunteer with us. Meridith Byrd is the Director of Programs and Development for the Food Bank of the Golden Crescent. Contact her at or mbyrd@feedingamerica.org.

9 Revista de Victoria, June Summertime security Contributed art. by Officer John Turner Summer is once again upon us and vacations are soon to follow If you are leaving town for a few days to enjoy some well-deserved rest, consider a few safety tips to help ensure that you return to a safe and secure home. Immediately before you leave, check and double check windows and doors to make sure that they re locked. Believe it or not, many residential burglars don t have to go to the trouble of breaking in, they simply enter through an unlocked door or window. Give your home that lived in look by stopping mail and newspaper delivery. A mailbox packed with mail and a driveway full of newspapers is a dead giveaway that no one is home. You can also have a neighbor or relative check on your home from time to time, park in your driveway and maintain the yard. Timers on your lights or TV s are also a good investment. Anything to make it look like someone is home. Always be conscious of your social media posts. Blasting to the world that you re away from home may be inviting a criminal to take advantage of you. You can always tell everyone about your trip when you return. Tell them what you did, not what you re doing. Oh, and don t forget about your vehicles. You may be on vacation, but burglars aren t. Make sure you still remove all your valuables from your car, lock the doors and take your keys with you. Some burglars in vacation hotspots target tourist vehicles. Although nothing is one hundred percent effective, every little thing you do is an improvement. Make your home, your vehicle and yourself hard targets for criminals and minimize the opportunity for someone to make you a victim.
