Tuesday, September 24, 2019 Jaz LIVE MUSIC special thanks to our affiliate service providers HEALTH ALLIANCE FOR AUSTIN MUSICIANS Keeping Music in Austin Alive & Well Dear Austin Music Lovers, CHEERS TO HAAM Like many of you, I can’t imagine Austin without its live music scene. But did you know, most of When you’re out and about, make sure to ask your favorite restaurants, bars and the musicians we all love and enjoy, including music venues about the official sips of symphony members who accompany Ballet Austin HAAM Day! Special Thanks to Tequila 512, and the Austin Opera, barely earn enough to pay Dulce Vida Spirits, Karbach Love Street, their monthly bills? Our local musicians are so Music Water, Still Austin Whiskey, Tito’s passionate about their music, they choose to do Handmade Vodka, Woody Creek Distillers whatever it takes to make ends meet just to keep and ZiegenBock for their continued support. playing. Unfortunately for them, healthcare is often a secondary priority when trying to pay for basic needs like groceries and rent. As Austin continues to grow and more people move here, it’s becoming increasingly difficult for many of our musicians to continue performing. Austin’s cost of living is on the rise, and I would hate for our community to look back in 20 years and realize most musicians have moved away. Simply put - musicians help to weave the unique and diverse fabric of our city. Each year, HAAM Day brings all of Austin together to sing praise for keeping our musicians alive and healthy. Austin businesses and music venues host more than 200 live musical performances citywide and donate to support HAAM. As our biggest annual fundraiser, funds raised on HAAM Day are crucial to ensuring that HAAM DAY local musicians continue to receive primary medical, dental, vision, hearing, and COMMITTEE mental health services through HAAM and our affiliate service providers.

    CAMPO TIP Outreach Report.Pdf

    Community Outreach Report 2021 – 2024 Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) Spring 2020 Background In March 2020, the Capital Area Metropolitan Planning Organization (CAMPO) launched a modified community outreach effort in accordance with its Public Participation Plan. The purpose of this effort was to engage the public and solicit input in CAMPO’s six-county region on a list of proposed projects to receive funding in the 2021-2024 Transportation Improvement Program (TIP), pending approval by the Transportation Policy Board (TPB). Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, stay at home orders and physical distancing guidelines were put in place in mid-March, and the TPB voted to temporarily suspend the in-person requirements of the Public Participation Plan to comply with these orders. Creating the 2021-2024 TIP was a unique opportunity for CAMPO and the Central Texas region because of the proposed once-in-a-generation reconstruction of IH 35 in Central Austin. Included with the TIP is a Special Funding Report related to prioritizing funding for the Texas Department of Transportation’s (TxDOT) IH 35 Capital Expressway project. The TPB prioritized IH 35 in the 2045 Plan and declared support for the project by pledging portions of funding allocated in the 2021-2024 TIP. Notifications Members of the public were notified through a news release, email, social media messages, and earned media stories of opportunities to learn more and provide input over the 74-day comment period. The news release was sent to local media outlets on April 2, 2020. Seven different email notices were sent to a list of 7,579 subscribers.

    Haam Annual Report 2013

    PHOTO BY BRENDA LADD PHOTOGRAPHY HAAM ANNUAL REPORT 2013 www.myhaam.org Dear Friends of HAAM: The year 2013 brought many changes to the health care landscape in our nation, our community and to the Health Alliance for Austin Musicians (HAAM). But through it all, HAAM’s core values and mission remained rock solid. We love Austin. We love live music. And we love what HAAM does for Austin’s musicians. Two major changes affected HAAM in 2013. First, the Affordable Care Act (ACA) began to take effect—opening new doors for many HAAM members to obtain health insurance. Although some people thought that the ACA might reduce the need for HAAM, nothing could be further from the truth. Because Texas did not follow many other states and expand its Medicaid eligibility, more than 60% of current HAAM members still need HAAM to access affordable health care. Additionally, the ACA does not usually provide the dental, vision, hearing and other health care services that are currently available to HAAM members. The second major change for HAAM in 2013 was the departure of our much loved, longtime executive director, Carolyn Schwarz, who deftly guided the organization for eight years. We wish her well and welcome Reenie Collins to our team as executive director. A native Austinite with deep roots in the health care and non-profit community, Reenie is passionate about HAAM and its mission. Reenie has a long-standing history with the HAAM family and actually worked as a health care consultant to our founder Robin Shivers in 2005 when HAAM was being formed.

    8 Must-Visit American Record Stores (Travel Channel, 2017)

    Source: http://www.travelchannel.com/roam­blog/food­culture/eight­essential­record­stores­in­the­u­s 8 Must­Visit American Record Stores Check out these vinyl meccas for LP connoisseurs. JEFF STAFFORD TAGS ARTS AND CULTURE The record industry seemed headed for oblivion in the early Nineties and then something unexpected happened. A whole new generation of music lovers created a vinyl renaissance that continues to grow at a surprising rate. According to a recent Forbes magazine article, vinyl record sales are projected to earn close to one billion dollars for the first time this century. www.amoeba.com Streaming music services may have their converts but collectors of vinyl prefer the tactile sensation of holding an album, putting it on the turntable, studying the cover and liner notes and listening to the unmistakable sound of an authentic vinyl recording, imperfections and all. Another part of the appeal for vinyl fans is hunting for rare LPs or long­desired acquisitions in stores where the employees are more likely to be self­taught musicologists who can advise and aid them in their audio explorations. Here is just a small sampling of some of the most beloved vinyl meccas in the U.S. from coast to coast. Amoeba Music, Los Angeles, California www.amoeba.com The gold standard among independent music chains, Amoeba opened its first store in Berkeley, California in 1990, added a second store in San Francisco in 1997 and followed that with a third outlet in Los Angeles in 2001. A one­stop destination for buying CDs, DVDs, Blu­Rays and especially used and new vinyl, Amoeba can be an overwhelming experience due to the sheer volume of pop culture on display.
