Lay/Enron <klay@enron.com< X-cc: X-bcc: X-Folder: \KLAY (Non-Privileged)\Inbox X-Origin: Lay-K X-FileName: KLAY (Non-Privileged).pst Dear Ken, Since you and I go to the same church and are on the Trustee Board together ( First United Methodist Church ) as well as serve together on the Greater Houston Partnership board ,etc, etc..I think I can imagine how busy you are. And I know how hard it is to contact you too.I am going to ask this very informally...but very sincerely... I have a LARGE favor of you...and I did not want to ask YOU in public last Tuesday at GHP Ex. Committee nor at lunch with Elizabeth Dole. I am the new Chairman of the Theatre Under the Stars (TUTS) Board. I preface my request with that announcement so you will know how important this is to me as well as to TUTS and the city at large. IT IS WITH ALL THE EXCITEMENT AND ENTHUSIASM AS WELL AS GREAT HONOR...that I tell you that President and Barbara Bush have said YES to being the Honorary Chairs of the May 18th,2002 Theatre Under the Stars (TUTS) Gala ...our opening night in the new Hobby Center for the Performing Arts .I know you (very graceously) turned down my request to be a Theater Under the Stars (TUTS) Board member...but my favor NOW is asking you and your lovely wife to serve as Co- Chairs for that event along with George and Barbara. I have a few other prominant Houstonians that I will be asking to Co-Chair along with you.And if you have anyone you think would be appropriate to serve with you ...please let me know. We have some grand ideas and need only your name and influence to make this a successful evening for TUTS!You and your wife may be as involved or not involved as you like!We would like to top the funds raised by this current year's event that was Co -Chaired by Chuck and Kim Watson .They helped TUTS to raise over $350,000. We want to raise the bar for this event as it is a World Premier Opening for an Internationally Reknown Organization....Theatre Under The Stars.The new theatre holds 2600 people.We want every seat filled for this event! The Hobby Center -Music Hall Foundation Board will be having their own opening Gala...I am sure you have already heard about it...It will be in April or early May before ours as they are the landlord...we are the #1 tenant...they get to have their opening first ,of course! Will you give this request real consideration and say YES! I would appreciate your answer as soon as you possibly can give it. As we need to begin the next phase of the planning asap. Again, Please forgive my informal way of presenting this very important Invitation! Sincerly, Cheryl Cheryl Thompson-Draper COB/CEO/President Warren Electric Group P.O.
