Dancing to the Stars planned Nov. 3
By Cindy Roller, Bowie Community Development Director
A great way to warm up this season will be at the annual Dancing to the Stars fundraising event on Nov. 3.
The great news is 100 percent of the proceeds stay local and go towards charities supported by the Rotary Club of Bowie, Bowie Chamber of Commerce, and to support scholarships for Montague County students through North Central Texas College Montague County Foundation.
Never seen the show and wondering how this works? This event is a dance competition modeled after the popular television show.
In this case, local area celebrities paired together with the assistance of professional dancers; perform one dance at the event at the Bowie Community Center.
The dancer who collects the most votes (by raising the most money) is the Champion. The evening includes a catered dinner, refreshments, and more guest appearances.
Those wishing to attend the show may purchase tickets for $50 and they are available at the Bowie Community Development office at the corner of Pecan and Mason. This event is usually a sell-out so purchase your tickets early.
Meet the dancers in your mid-week News.
The cast and crew of Gold-Burg High School’s state-bound one-act play “Interview,” will present a public show at 4 p.m. on May 5 in the Bowie Junior High Auditorium.
Admission is $5 and there will be a bake sale to raise funds for travel and other OAP expenses. The show is directed by Linda Fitzner.
The group will travel to Austin to perform on May 13 for the state title. This is the school’s first time to take a play to the state contest.

Voters in Bowie and Forestburg Independent School Districts will have their say Saturday as both entities offer up bond issues to improve infrastructure.
Early voting came to an end on Tuesday with a total of 1,230 people casting their ballots.
On election day the polls will be open 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. at three locations: Bowie Senior Citizens Center, Forestburg ISD Library and Sunset City Hall. Voters can cast their ballots at any of these locations due to countywide voting.
