Design by: Icon Creative Cover Photo by: Angela Gonzales, http://www.angelalynnportraits.com/ lenna’s letter Our children are back in school after a lovely summer… and because time flies, we’re already gearing up for the holidays! But first, let’s recap a few highlights of summer and fall. Summer is our most intense fund-raising time of year and 2007 was an especially busy one! Many thanks to the Heatwave Golf Committee, led by Edward DeWees, III and Mark Meador. These board members, both of whom have small children at home, work diligently to raise money! This year, the golf tournament raised over $60,000. I attended the dinner the night before, and I encourage you to put this on your calendar for next year. Not only do you get great food, but it’s an entertaining evening to remember. Our Wildest Auction turned out to be one of the “hottest” on record — the air conditioning went out at the Alzafar Shrine! Many thanks to our guests for “sweating” it out with us while we struggled to get it fixed. I am truly amazed at the generosity of our guests. Special thanks go out to Manny and Debbie Ruiz and our Auction committee for their hard work. Boysville raised a record amount for the children who live on our campus. We were honored to have our Days of Care presented by a who’s who of San Antonio’s popular KSAT-TV news reporters: Steve Spriester, Leslie Mouton and Steve Brown. A Day of Care helps feed, clothe and provide medical and therapeutic assistance to our children. Of course, we could not achieve such huge success at the Wildest Auction without the help of KENS-TV’s Bill Taylor, our wonderful Master of Ceremonies and Dan Kruse, our auctioneer, both of whom donated their time to this event. Very soon, Christmas will be upon us and I call on the generosity of the San Antonio community to help fulfill the Christmas wishes and dreams of our children. Each year, we find that more children must remain on campus during the holidays; this year, we anticipate that 85% of our children will be with us. Keeping this in mind, we ask that you remember the children of Boysville — in gifts, in volunteering and in caring. Thanks to your support, Boysville is able to continue its mission of providing a safe environment for children in need so that we may help them become responsible adults. Lenna J. Baxter CEO, Boysville Inc. humanitarian award boysville today Judge Peter Sakai The Boysville Board of Directors is honored to name Judge Peter Sakai as the 2008 Arthur O’Krent Humanitarian Award recipient. Sakai, an impassioned advocate for children, is a respected jurist who worked on behalf of children in family court for 11 years, presiding over many high profile child abuse cases. He was elected to the 225th District Court in 2006 and continues to work with families in crisis. “It has been our privilege to know Judge Sakai for many years,” said Lenna Baxter, CEO for Boysville. “He deeply cares about children and truly exemplifies this award with his love and concern for South Texas children.” Judge Sakai is widely regarded in the community as a leader who has devoted his energies to bringing new ideas and solutions to help resolve issues of child abuse, neglect and family violence. He has consistently challenged those involved in the child welfare system to more effectively serve the families that come through the courts. The Arthur O’Krent Award is given to an individual who, by civic action, demonstrates love and concern for the well being of children within our community. He joins a distinguished group of past recipients that includes Fully Clingman, Tom Frost, Governor Dolph Briscoe, Dr. Dale Wood, Edith McAllister, Reverend Buckner Fanning, Rosemary Kowalski and Bill Greehey. hot time in the city!

For the 4th year in a row, the auction raised a record amount — $420,000 for the children of Boysville. With help from the Spurs Coyote; Bill Taylor, KENS-5 favorite weather prognosticator; Dan Kruse; and live entertainment from Lil’ Bit and the 4 Customatics, guests enjoyed great food, music and one of the liveliest auctions ever seen in San Antonio. n ‘07 today Sponsors Texas Ranger WellMed Marshal U.S. Global Investors Sheriff live auction donors Coach Gregg Popovich The Front Door Company Scot Meadows March Construction Glenn Reinhardt AIA Joshua Creek Hollerbach & Associates Brent Thompson Chef Michael Bomberg Maria’s Jewelry design Bejewel by Carroll Dorsey-Walker W.A.

It was a scary, spooky and fun-filled Halloween for the children of Boysville: • The fun began with the Annual Harvest Party hosted by Sigma Sigma Sigma Sorority at St. Mary’s University and Sigma Phi Epsilon Fraternity at UTSA. The children enjoyed hayrides, pumpkin carving, decorating mini-pumpkins, frosting cookies and competing in a fun, messy pumpkincarving contest. • Many thanks to Ernesto Malacara of the Menger for 8 hosting a “haunted” party at the historic hotel. • UTSA hosted an evening of tricks ‘n’ treats at Chisholm Hall for our younger children. Our ghouls and goblins slithered from room to room in search of many treats! boysville today super summer ‘07 Boysville had a super summer! Our children participated in several camps and attended many fun events — those lazy crazy days of summer fending off the summertime blues and building summertime memories. Here are some highlights, along with our heartfelt thanks to the generous folks who made all this possible: • Future basketball stars Devonte, Gordon, Marcos, Mashelle and Ashton developed their basketball skills at the George Gervin Basketball Camp, thanks to the generous sponsorship of Time Warner Cable. • The San Antonio Chapter of CPAs sponsored all of our children under the age of 12, enabling them to attend the Funlympics at St. Peter – St. Joseph Children’s Home. Over 45 of our younger children had a great time tossing Frisbees, footballs and beanbags through hoops, rings and holes, playing tug of war, competing in races and doing what kids do best — playing! They were treated to a filling lunch and outfitted with school supplies. • Take me out to the Ball Park! The Harmony Hills Optimists treated the entire campus to a night at the Missions! A big THANK YOU to Ed Sebera and the Optimists. • The Delta Zeta Sorority from St. Mary’s University hosted a game day in our gym. Children played Chutes and Ladders, Monopoly, Spades, Dominoes, 24, Go Fish and Candy Land. The DZ women also brought paints and their creative touch and painted our children’s faces. • The Rotary Club of San Antonio at the Dominion invited the entire campus to Enchanted Springs Ranch for their Annual Wild West Day. Gunfights, gun twirlers, jousting and civil war reenactments were just part of the festivities. It was all topped off by a delicious brisket and sausage lunch. Many thanks to Sam Gott and his fellow Rotarians. good search Good search for Boysville! Holiday Shopping on-line? Use www.goodsearch.com instead of Google, and Boysville will receive a donation.
