Media Relations Contact
My name is Larry Arnold. As a Director of TCHA I am responsible for media relations, so please contact me if you have any questions about us. For routine matters you may:
- Telephone me at home at (830) 895-2869. I check for messages when I get home from work, and will try to return your call the next day.
- Email me at home at [email protected]. Again, I will try to respond by the next day.
- My surface address is 118 Crestwood Drive, Kerrville, Texas 78028-4831.
Since my wife is a reporter, I understand about deadlines. So:
- My cellphone number is (830) 459-5419.
