Christmas gifts of pets not nice, but certificates perfect presents
Pet shelters and adoption agencies across the country are unanimously in agreement that no cat, dog, puppy or kitten should be given to a family as a holiday 'surprise' gift.

A different ‘board of education’ applied in ages past
GOD first...Heavenly Father, we thank You for the many blessings You continue to pour upon us. Your power is so great and our faith is so weak. We want so much to be the things You want us to be and do the right things You want us to do. Yet, we seem not to reach our goals and forget that You are the one that makes it all possible if only we will but follow Thy will in all things. Strengthen us Lord. Help us to go forth and serve You better. In the name of our Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen. 12/10/2024 04:06 PM

Education savings accounts, popularly known as school vouchers, are again a top priority for Gov. Greg Abbott in the upcoming session after a similar push failed in 2023. This time, however, the primary loss of several voucher opponents last March has even those opposing vouchers conceding passage of a measure is likely. 12/10/2024 04:06 PM

On Tuesday, December 3, 2024, the Kitty Kats traveled to Tilden to take on the McMullen County Cowgirls, ranked #17 in the TABC Class A polls.

In the second half, the Kitty Kats were able to cut the lead to 35-34, but that was as close as they got, as McMullen County showed why they are ranked and pulled away for a 53-42 win.
