Huckabee due for dedication of new Hill
Country Pregnancy Care Center facility
Former Arkansas governor and presidential
candidate Mike Huckabee will visit Boerne
Wednesday, Oct. 21, for the ceremonial dedi-
cation of the Hill Country Pregnancy Care
Center’s new facility at 423 Fabra Street.
He will also attend a private reception and
luncheon benefiting the center, hosted by Ye
Kendall Inn and Limestone Grille, underwrit-
ten in part by Heart’s Home Acoustics.
“We are very pleased to bring an individual
of such national prominence to our com-
munity” said Dr. Peter Leininger, chairman
of the Pregnancy Care Center Building Fund
and co-owner of Ye Kendall Inn and Lime-
stone Grille.
Leininger’s partner, Ed McClure, also a
building fund committee member added,
“What an exciting way to raise some of the
funds needed to complete the new center, as
proceeds of the lunch will all go to the Care
Center Building Fund”.
Guests will have an opportunity to hear
Huckabee’s thoughts on current events and
also have an opportunity to fly on a private jet
with him as he returns to Little Rock, Ark.
The reception begins at 11 a.m. at Ye Ken-
dall Inn including a photo opportunity for
Huckabee and event sponsors. At noon, the
seated luncheon and program will begin in
Kendall Halle.
