Planning has begun for the 2009 Convention of the Texas College Republicans, to be held March 28, 2009 in Austin, Texas.

The convention will take place in E2.002 A-C Legislative Conference Center in the Texas State Capitol Annex, sponsored by Rep. Myra Crownover (HD-64). Set-up for exhibitors will begin at 9 AM, as well as the State Executive Board meeting; the convention will convene at approximately 10 AM and last until 2 PM.
