Veterans lost $419 million to fraud in 2024

AUSTIN – Veterans reported losing more money to frauds in 2024 than in previous years, according to new Federal Trade Commission (FTC) data released in March.

Moments at the Show

We were fortunate to have photographers Toby Fournet and Ele Chew capture these moments at last month’s Cuero Livestock Show, starting with the horse show competitions and ending with the homemaking wares. As impressive as the photos are, it is the young competitors putting forth their best efforts who steal the show. Congratulations to all 4-H and FFA youth in the 76th Cuero Livestock Show. 04/09/2025 12:56 PM
