🔥 Stay Safe this Summer! 🔥

As summer heats up, let's take a moment to talk about wildfire safety in Texas. Here are a few quick tips to keep in mind:

🌞 Stay informed: Keep an eye on local news and official sources for updates on wildfire risks in your area. Follow the guidelines and evacuation notices issued by authorities.

🌞 Practice responsible outdoor activities: If you're camping or having a barbecue, ensure that fires are only started in designated areas. Extinguish them completely before leaving. Avoid tossing cigarette butts in dry areas.

🌞 Report suspicious activities: If you notice any suspicious behavior or signs of arson, report them to the authorities immediately. Early intervention can prevent devastating wildfires.

Remember, wildfires can spread rapidly, so it's crucial to prioritize safety. Let's work together to protect our beautiful state and ensure a safe summer for everyone! 🌞🌳

Thank you for all of your support and the generous donation from this event. We truly appreciate it.

More than $25,000 was raised during the Fiery Crawfish for Firefighters benefit at Mansfield park a few weekends ago. Proceeds from the event were delivered to the nine volunteer fire departments of Bandera County.

Car Show Food Truck Update:

Friday update: The Cone and Cloud food truck had to cancel for personal reasons and will no longer be able to make it tomorrow. We will still have cotton candy for the kiddos, but are looking for a snow cone/shaved ice solution. Thanks for y’all’s understanding.

Unfortunately the Whiskey & Brisket Barbecue food truck won’t be onsite this Saturday due to personal medical reasons. We’re praying for the owner’s continued recovery!

The The Hungry Hustle food trailer will be filling their place this Saturday. They will have breakfast bowls for the morning crowd, and special menu items of smoked BBQ ribs with beans and potato salad!

We’ll also have Texas 2 Cali serving up some great food including breakfast tacos for the early birds!

Don’t miss the Thirst Trap Mobile Beverage Bar with coffee, energy drinks and dirty sodas.

Join us Saturday, May 16 from 9 AM - 3 PM!
