Passenger terminal to open on Nov. 11, 2026; Avelo Airlines to add nonstop service to Atlanta, Denver, Nashville, and New Orleans from DTX beginning Dec. 16, 2026

There was a buzz of anticipation and excitement in the air as a crowd gathered on Saturday, September 26, 2026, at 921 North Center Street in Bonham, to celebrate two ribbon cuttings, Risser House and Agape Financial, and an open house for Harvest Market at the Courtyard.

Brandon and K, the highly caffeinated driving force behind Narco Polo Coffee on the north side of the square in historic downtown Bonham, get ready to cut the ribbon as the Bonham Area Chamber of Commerce welcomes a new member to the chamber family.

History comes to life this fall at Frontier Village & Museum with a unique opportunity to experience 19th-century artillery up close. Participants in the Frontier Village Cannon Crew program will learn about building a black charge, cannon firing safety and procedures, and the important roles performed by members of an artillery crew

This fall, Denton County Master Gardener Association is “embracing the learn” with our first Garden and Nature Expo, a collaboration of the Texas Master Gardeners, Texas Master Naturalists, Texas Parks and Wildlife, and Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service. The Expo is being held on Saturday, October 3, from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. at the Denton County Administrative Courthouse in Denton. In this free, family-friendly event, curiosity comes to life through over 70 interactive booths and exhibits, activities, and engaging presentations that inspire people of all ages to discover the outdoors. Whether you want to grow a healthier garden, attract butterflies and pollinators, learn to compost, conserve water, discover local wildlife, or learn how everyday people are making a difference through citizen science and conservation, you'll find something to spark your interest.

1953 – death of Edwin Hubble, American astronomer and scholar. Edwin Powell Hubble (November 20, 1889 – September 28, 1953) was an American astronomer. He played a crucial role in establishing the fields of extragalactic astronomy and observational cosmology. Hubble proved that many objects previously thought to be clouds of dust and gas and classified as "nebulae" were actually galaxies beyond the Milky Way. He used the strong direct relationship between a classical Cepheid variable's luminosity and pulsation period (discovered in 1908 by Henrietta Swan Leavitt) for scaling galactic and extragalactic distances. Hubble confirmed in 1929 that the recessional velocity of a galaxy increases with its distance from Earth, a behavior that became known as Hubble's law, although it had been proposed two years earlier by Georges Lemaître. The Hubble law implies that the universe is expanding. A decade before, American astronomer Vesto Slipher had provided the first evidence that the light from many of these nebulae was strongly red-shifted, indicative of high recession velocities. Hubble's name is most widely recognized for the Hubble Space Telescope, which was named in his honor, with a model prominently displayed in his hometown of Marshfield, Missouri.
