Bowie Rural readies fish fry, concert fundraisers
Bowie Rural Fire Department hosts two major fundraising events on Sept. 24 including the annual fish fry and a country music concert.
The fish fry will begin serving at 5:30 p.m. and go until 8 p.m. or sell out at the Bowie Community Center, 413 Pelham. Donations are accepted for the meal. There will be live music and an auction, along with prize drawings for a Glock .48 handgun and a Predator 6.5 Creedmoor rifle. Tickets are $5 each or five for $20.
Later that evening the fall concert will take place also at the community center featuring Carson Jeffrey and Graycie York. Doors open at 8 p.m. and the show starts at 9 p.m. Tickets are $25 in advance and $30 on the day of the show. Visit info.outhousetickets.com.
As North Texas finally transitions towards cooler temperatures, community water needs change as well.
Preparing your home for freezing temperatures can save time and money, especially with meteorologists expecting El Nino to bring wintry weather to the Southwest United States. Use these tips from the Upper Trinity Groundwater Conservation District to winterize your house and well, all while saving a few gallons.
Now is the time to check fixtures in your home for leaks or moisture loss.
