Greetings All,
I apologize for the delay in getting this update out. Things have been extremely busy lately in the bodybuilding world.
We just wrapped up the Ronnie Coleman Classic. Wow, what a contest! Promoter, Brian Dobson reported that this years show broke both contestant and attendance records. Brian and his staff did a great job in making this show so big and well organized. Competitors and fans a like enjoyed a great day of bodybuilding. I tip my hat to all competitors. You all looked great and there were several tough classes to judge. Our overall winners were incredible. The figure overall winner went on to the Jr. USA's to win her class, which had more that 43 competitors. Up next for Brian and his team is the Branch Warren Classic.
On the horizon for NPC Texas is Prince Harrison's, Lone Star Classic contest on June 2 in Plano, TX. Followed by new promoter and national level competitor Prince Fontenot and his wife Debbie's South Texas Classic on June 30th. Then we move into the Branch Warren Classic in Conroe, TX on July 7 followed by the big one, the John Sherman Classic Bodybuilding, Figure and Fitness Championships and Houston Pro Figure Contest to be held at the Stafford Convention Center. Even if you are not competing in these contest, please get out and support our members, promoters and sponsors.
This years Texas State Bodybuilding, Figure and Fitness Championships presented by Lee Labrada will be held October 27 at the Stafford Convention Center. Mr. O, Jay Cutler, Ms. O, Iris Kyle (and hopefully by the Sherman...this is a hint John), Ms. Fitness O, Adela Garcia, Shawn Ray, Bob Chicerillo, Special Guest Jamie Eason and a to-be-named UFC fighter will all
be in attendance at this years contest. I look forward to seeing you there.
I want to congratulate those Texas competitors who recently competed in the the Jr. USA in Charleston, SC. It was an honor to judge you. You each did very well and represented you state well!
Train hard and demonstrate sportsmanship always,
Lee Thompson
