Poultry Festival only 30 days away

Only 30 days left until the 47th Annual East Texas Poultry Festival, Sponsored by Farmers State Bank, opens its gates to a weekend of fun, entertainment, arts, crafts and food back on the
downtown square!

The Cutting of the Feathers will be held on Thursday, October 5 at 10:00 a.m. on the Frances Oates Center Stage! We are looking forward to having the school children back on stage to sing.
All three days, the entertainment stage will be busy with school groups, dancing groups and singing groups. Of course there will be the wing eating, AG/Mechanic auction, contest, the Chicken Clucking Contest, Lion Club's vehicle drawing and the Broiler Auction.

For all three days you can enjoy the Creative Arts Show, Quilt Show and Photography Show held at First Baptist Church Family Life Center. They are Sponsored by Ray Jones Chevrolet, Scull Timber and the Light and Champion.
