It’s Summer Time! Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott
School is out, the crickets are chirping, and the days are long and hot. It's officially summer time in Texas.
Kids look forward to summer all year long. Help make it special by creating lasting memories for you and your family. When parents are involved in their lives, children have a better chance at growing up healthy, happy and well adjusted. Most parents instinctively understand this and do what is needed to provide the foundation for success...more

Hi Surfers,
On Saturday, July 11, 2009, we will be having the 1st Annual Polk County Electronics Green Day from 10 am until 2 pm at Pedigo Park.
Here is your chance to get rid of old computers, computer parts, monitors, printers, stereos, radios and remotes while, saving our environment. Unfortunately, there isn’t a local facility that can accommodate old electronic equipment.
Join me and 92.3 FM The Eagle as I host, “Geeks Corner”, from 10 am until Noon live from Pedigo Park.
The only things that cannot be accepted are TV’s and home appliances such as microwave ovens and electronic stoves.
I am in need of a few volunteers to help unload cars for citizens who need a little assistance. If you can help for an hour or two, give me a call at 936-328-0161.
Remember… Saturday, July 11th - 10 am until 2pm at Pedigo Park under the pavilions.
Until next time,
Surf safe!
Webmaster JR

Anonymous email concerning badly neglected bridge in Goodrich.
Why has no one commented on this story and the poor road conditions in this town. This bridge is considered private property therefore the city will not repair nor help the citizens rebuild this bridge. Maybe some the so called "eager to help others" should get their people together and help this small community build a bridge that is SAFE to cross. Whether this is private road, poor people whom live there, or that they don't pay taxes; this is not right for people to have to deal with this everyday. If you have a heart, drive out to Goodrich one day and pass over this bridge and see if your heart does not drop while driving across. If you know someone whom can help these families to rebuild this bridge, please do so....(See related story)
