We have a program called Sisters in Fire which focuses on educating young students in 8th to 12th grade who are interested in careers in natural resource management and wildfire response.
Youth who participate will experience multiple aspects of wildland firefighting, from chainsaw operations to fire engines, dozers, and aircraft drops from firefighting aircraft. The final event of the day will be a prescribed burn that participants will get to see fire behavior. Our staff of instructors are all qualified wildland firefighters from federal, state, municipal, and non-profit organizations from across the state of Texas. This year is our 6th year and is being held in Manor, TX on September 26th. We are looking to fill our remaining open slots and hope that you might be able to pass this along to any youth you know who might be interested, or other groups that might have folks interested. I have included the link to register below.
The registration fee* is $14 and will help cover the cost of lunch, materials, and t-shirts for participants.
For more information and to register, please visit https://agriliferegister.tamu.edu/ereg/newreg
Register today, space is limited!
*Scholarships are available to waive the registration fee. More information can be found through the registration link.

🤠 Friday Humor/ weekend challenge Fair & Rodeo Survival Guide edition

The 95th Annual Blanco County Fair & Rodeo is here, and the Precinct 1 Constable’s Office would like to offer a few helpful tips for the weekend.

Before leaving home, make sure you have:

✅ Your wallet
✅ Your keys
✅ Comfortable boots
✅ A healthy appetite

Because fair food has a way of turning:

“I’m just stopping by for a few minutes…”into:

“Well, I guess one Lions Club hamburger won’t hurt.”

…followed by a second Lions Club hamburger, a funnel cake, ice cream, and a promise to start eating healthier on Monday. 😄

We would also like to remind everyone that a trip to the Blanco County Fair is part community event, part family reunion, and part catching up with people you haven’t seen in a while.

The current record for hearing:

“Hey! I know you!”

is believed to be every 15 feet. 😂

Last and finally, a public safety warning:

We strongly encourage:

🐎 Watching the rodeo
🎡 Enjoying the fair
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Spending time with family
🍔 Supporting the Lions Club hamburger stand

But we do not recommend:

👢 Wearing brand-new boots to the fair for the first time.

Many have tried….

Few have succeeded !

Have a great weekend, support our youth exhibitors, enjoy the rodeo, eat a Lions Club hamburger (or two), and make some great memories at the 95th Annual Blanco County Fair & Rodeo.

Be safe this weekend, Blanco County!

As more American w**e travelers push back against appointments and high tasting fees, some w**eries are meeting the moment with more relaxed vibes.
