We would like to express our sincere thanks to Waller County Judge Owen Ralston and staff, the Attorney's for TABC and the citizens of Waller County.

Yesterday’s meeting allowed us to meet each other, some for the very first time. Although we have opposing opinions, we respect you and your right to express your concerns.

Every one of your concerns is dutifully acknowledged, and we intend to address each and every one of them that are within our control. It is not our intent to degrade your quality of living or cause harm to your current life style.

As with any new venture, changes are expected and opposition to change is necessary in order to streamline all issues that affect both the consumer and the entrepreneur.

As mentioned, I respect your concerns and hold no animosity towards anyone for voicing their opinion, and would again, like to extend a personal invitation to each and every one of you to come out and take a tour of the facilities. I personally welcome any ideas that you may offer that will be mutually beneficial to both of us so we can equally respect each others rights.

1/2 Boy/Girl 1/2 Man/Woman

If you read this, you WILL forward it on. You just won't be able to stop yourself. The average age of the military man is 19 years. He is a short haired, tight-muscled kid who, under normal circumstances is considered by society as half man, half boy.

Not yet dry behind the ears, not old enough to buy a beer, but old enough to die for his country. He never really cared much for work and he would rather wax his own car than wash his father's, but he has never collected unemployment either.

He's a recent High School graduate; he was probably an average student, pursued some form of sport activities, drives a 10-year old jalopy, and has a steady girlfriend that either broke up with him when he left, or swears to be waiting when he returns from half a world away.

He listens to rock and roll or hip-hop or rap or jazz or swing and a 155mm howitzer.

He is 10 or 15 pounds lighter now than when he was at home because he is working or fighting from before dawn to well after dusk.

He has trouble spelling, thus letter writing is a pain for him, but he can field strip a rifle in 30 seconds and reassemble it in less time in the dark.

He can recite to you the nomenclature of a machine gun or grenade launcher and use either one effectively if he must.

He digs foxholes and latrines and can apply first aid like a professional He can march until he is told to stop, or stop until he is told to march.

He obeys orders instantly and without hesitation, but he is not without spirit or individual dignity.

He is self-sufficient.

He has two sets of fatigues; he washes one and wears the other. He keeps his canteens full and his feet dry.

He sometimes forgets to brush his teeth, but never to clean his rifle.

He can cook his own meals, mend his own clothes, and fix his own hurts. If you're thirsty, he'll share his water with you; if you are hungry, his food.

He'll even split his ammunition with you in the midst of battle when you run low.

He has learned to use his hands like weapons and weapons like they were his hands. He can save your life - or take it, because that is his job.

He will often do twice the work of a civilian, draw half the pay, and still find ironic humor in it all.

He has seen more suffering and death than he should have in his short lifetime. He has wept in public and in private, for friends who have fallen in combat and is unashamed.

He feels every note of the National Anthem vibrate through his body while at rigid attention, while tempering the burning desire to 'square-away ' those around him who haven't bothered to stand, remove their hat, or even stop talking.

In an odd twist, day in and day out, far from home, he defends their right to be disrespectful.

Just as did his Father, Grandfather, and Great- grandfather, he is paying the price for our freedom.

Beardless or not, he is not a boy. He is the American Fighting Man that has kept this country free for over 200 years.

He has asked nothing in return, except our friendship and understanding. Remember him, always, for he has earned our respect and admiration with his blood.

And now we even have women over there in danger, doing their part in this tradition of going to War when our nation calls us to do so. As you go to bed tonight, remember this shot. . A short lull, a little shade and a picture of loved ones in their helmets.

A Prayer for our military.... Please don't break it. Please send this on after a short prayer.

Prayer 'Lord, hold our troops in your loving hands. Protect them as they protect us. Bless them and their families for the selfless acts they perform for us in our time of need. In Jesus Name - Amen.'

When you receive this, please stop for a moment and say a prayer for our troops in Afghanistan , sailors on ships, and airmen in the air, and for those in Iraq , Afghanistan and all foreign countries.

There is nothing attached.... This can be very powerful... Of all the gifts you could give a U..S. Marine, Soldier, Sailor, Airman or Coast Guardsman, prayer is the very best one.

Pass it on to everyone and pray.

With God, all things are possible.

Our Plans and Why

We want to take a moment to thank Waller County News for providing this forum so we may address issues concerning our facility.

As mentioned, we have been operating for over 22 years. In the past, our clients provided their own beverages. We applied for a TABC "Beer" License for several reasons.

Mainly, we WILL be able to control the consumption of alcoholic beverages.

All of our servers will be Certified by approved TABC Training Instructors, and will strictly adhere to the regulations as described by TABC. In the past, if an individual(s) who brought their own beer, we had little or no control over their consumption.

Also, our facility is a "NO GLASS CONTAINER" establishment. This is for safety and environmental reasons.

At this time, there is no way for us to define the percentage of sale of beer versus our food, but in the past 22 years, there has never been an incident on the property or accidents that were related to our facility.

This is a event / retreat facility and don't plan on having a BAR that is open 7 days a week.

There is NOT GOING the be a Dirt Bike or Motorcycle track, ramp, tunnel of any sort on the grounds of the facility.

What's in a Name?

The NEW name: Rons Relay Bar & Grill may imply that it is just a "BAR" & "GRILL" but it is NOT! It is MUCH more!

We are Bigger and Better than ever before. Ideal for that break away from the hussle and bussle of the BIG CITY.

Come out and enjoy the view, fish or just relax under a tree. We welcome everyone and cater to many diverse events.
