SWTPC Reunion Dinner

by Michael Holley

The dinner was held February 10, 2006 at the Alamo Cafe near the San Antonio airport.  Gary Kay started this project and with the help of Lucy Proctor about 30 people  showed up. The dinner started about 6 and ended around 10. Everyone seemed to have a great time.

Before the dinner Gary took me to the old SWTPC facility at 219 W. Rhapsody. Dan Meyer owned a 4 acres site and built a complex of 8 brick buildings. The company was located here from 1967 until it closed in 1991.


 

Here is Gary Kay at 219 W. Rhapsody.
