Join us for our monthly Legacy Group Happy Hour on June 13th from 5:00 PM – 7:30 PM at Lupe Tortilla.
Level Four Financial, a DTE Chapter Sponsor, will provide us with a free seminar to learn about the Sunset Tax Laws 2026, which are only 18 months away, and tell us the impact it will have on everyone in 2026. Learn strategies to prepare for these changes, what you can do to protect yourself, and a once in a generation opportunity to protect your assets and estate.
We have a private room at Lupe Tortilla on Beltline Rd from 5:00 to 7:30pm. The seminar will be only about 30-45 minutes. This will be followed by a social happy hour with complimentary appetizers and soft drinks from Level Four Financial. As always, the bar will be open and available to anyone who wishes to purchase their own cocktails.
Unlike our typical happy hours, this one has limited seating, so RSVP now!
As always, this event is open to all UT Alumni, their friends and plus ones! Hook’em Horns!
Thank you to our sponsor, Level Four Financial!

Meet our camp counselor for the day: Kristi Bartlett
Kristi Bartlett graduated in 2013 with a Bachelor of a Science in Petroleum and Geosystems Engineering. In 2020, the Society of Petroleum Engineers Dallas section awarded her Young Engineer of the Year for outstanding achievements and dedicated service to the engineering profession. She currently is the Director of Reservoir Engineering at Comstock Resources. Although her professional career is in Dallas, her heart is still on the 40 acres with the Alumni Association’s Camp Texas, a three day leadership training for incoming freshman and transfer students. Her dream is for every student to be able to attend the leadership program as its goal is to set students up for success before they step on the 40 acres while exposing them to the organization they will call home after they step off.
Camp Texas is celebrating its 31st year! In appreciation of Camp Texas, support their alumni chapter by donating to their scholars here: https://www.texasexes.org/chapters-and-networks/find-chapter-or-network/152/camp-texas-alumni-network/donate
The official Texas Exes Camp Texas Alumni Network (TECTAN) first chartered with the Texas Exes in July of 2016. The Network helps connect anyone with an affiliation to Camp Texas keeping the Network up-to-date on alumni, Texas Exes, and Camp Texas.
TECTAN’s top objective is raising funds to enable future students the opportunity to go to Camp Texas – in the hopes of one day – any student is able to attend Camp. The Network accomplishes this by uniting, informing, and involving past alumni and friends though local events and a Network wide reunion. In achieving the main goal, the Network also hopes to help transition recent graduates into the real world not only socially but also professionally.
