  • On Friday, April 25 at 10:00 p.m., festivalgoers will be treated to the alternative rock of Silversun Pickups on the WFAA Main Stage. The party continues Saturday as Hoobastank takes the WFAA Main Stage at 10:00 p.m. Sunday’s headliner is Wade Bowen, presented by KHYI 95.3 The Range. Texas born and bred and a Red Raider alum, Bowen digs deep in the Red Dirt country music sounds that define the great states of Texas and Oklahoma.
  • Palmer's Closet held its official ribbon cutting at 311 US-69 Suite 106, in Leonard, TX 75452 this past Saturday, April 19, 2025. What started as an annual ritual to clean out a child's closet has grown into a place that collects kids’ clothes, shoes, and infant necessities that would normally end up at big donation centers — and instead, give them directly to families who need them right here in their community. No price tag. Just community helping community in a dignified setting.
  • Sandy Barber and Jessie Bryant wearing jeans that Sandy mended. While we celebrate finding great deals on new clothes, what happens after the purchase often tells a less impressive story. The upcoming Texoma Earth Day Festival (April 26, 2025) offers practical solutions through four textile-focused attractions: a creative trashion show, booths featuring upcycled fashions, a free children's clothing swap, and a textile recycling drop-off point.
  • Fannin County should be able to finish the Justice Center project $659,000 in the black, allowing that no change orders are submitted, but that doesn't include the parking lot or repairs to the roof that could run as high as a million dollars. An asphalt parking lot would be approximately $215,000.00, while a more durable concrete parking lot would cost approximately $576,100.00.
  • Chris Clark, Youth Librarian at Bonham Public Library, gives away free trees to Archie and Roy. In partnership with Neighborhood Forest, Bonham Public Library facilitated the delivery of free black gum sapling trees to kids from all over Fannin County. Thanks to hardworking librarians, our small corner of Texas is participating in a nationwide effort, with a broader goal of giving 100,000 tree saplings to kids this year. To the delight of the Bonham Public Library staff, hundreds of children signed up for the program.
