Retired educator Debbie Herriage began her new job as director of membership for the Bowie Chamber of Commerce on Monday.
The board of directors are excited to have someone filling a vacancy open since last September when the former executive director left for another job. Board President Michael Daily said he received five applications, but when he met with Herriage he had a great feeling about her.
“She was very respectful, well-spoken and I could tell she liked Bowie and would make a good representative for the chamber. When I was able to visit with others about her volunteer participation and her involvement with other events in Bowie, I knew I had made the right choice to present to the board. I believe once she is trained for the position she will do very well,” explained Daily.
She will staff the office from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday-Friday.
The new director of membership has lived in the Bowie area for about two years, moving here from the Euless area following her retirement from teaching. Herriage spent 28 years as a physical education teacher across the elementary level. Read the full story in the mid-week Bowie News.

Once more we pose that question to Bowie third graders, who share their very colorful, helpful, unique and always hilarious recipes and procedures to create the best bird for the family dinner.
Enjoy their recipe suggestions as you sit down with family and friends this week for Thanksgiving. Hopefully it will bring a smile. Special thanks to Stephanie Crabtree, Karina Carter and Bailey Bolton for allowing their students to take part in this longtime Bowie News tradition. We tried to use as many as space allowed, thanks to all the kids.

Here are just a few:

Do you like turkey? I’m am going to teach you how to cook it. First,you go get your ingredients by going to buy a turkey from Walmart. Get your pan out and put the non-stick spray on the pan. Put the turkey on top of the pan.
Next, you put your turkey on the grill at 290 degrees for 30 minutes. While the turkey cooks, get your side food together. Next, set up your table. Then you put all of your food on the table. Sit down and enjoy your meal. Wasn’t that yummy?
