As the Vice President of Barca Dallas I wanted to let you know the latest news:

1. David, -The Presidente- began the registration process in order for Barca Dallas to become an official penya with F. C. Barcelona.

2. David is re-designing our website. He is building a more professional looking website from the ground up. It is a lot of work and should be completed by the end of the summer. When finished he promises it will be the best looking Barca Penya website the world has ever seen. I will be visiting David on Friday to take a sneak peek at what he has done thus far.

Barca Dallas is growing quickly and we are working to maintain that momentum. It is my pleasure to share with you that one of our newest members, Scott Figuerola, will be the official editor of our new blog and assist with providing the Barca Dallas website with original content. Scott got involved with journalism when he began writing for his school newspaper and has done some really wonderful articles on many sports topics. David and I appreciate his help and hope that you will participate by contributing to our efforts. Scott will begin working on the blog (I hope, lol lol) and getting ready for next season . . . we’ll probably try out some experiments during the World Cup. He also will do a wrap up of the 2009/2010 season and we will post this on the current website once the article is written.

Ideas for growing Barca Dallas include:

1. A youth futbol program to promote futbol in schools and our community.

2. A web page that includes news about hirings and transfers in our area, forming a local team, opportunities to play in the area, and announcements of local tournaments and showcasing some of the local players.

3. Create new relationships with affiliation associations on worldwide basis via our website.

We need your support and involvement to grow Barca Dallas! You can help by promoting our organization, help us get kids interested in futbol, and of course support the best team in the world - F. C. Barcelona
