Happy Thursday,

We are moving forward with local activities and plans for returning to a more normal life in Giddings. As we prepare to get businesses open and events start happening we have some guidelines that will be included. These come from the State of Texas and will be shared across all platforms and for every one to easily access. 

We are so very excited to see the Governor moving forward into Phase 3 of Open Texas and expect things to continue expanding.

The eternal optimist in me is always looking for the silver lining in every cloud and it gives me HOPE to see people out and about, meeting in their groups, clubs, and organizations. Finding ways to gather in a meaningful way and continue the good work that these organizations promote is the best way to combat the stress and anxiety we have had for the last two and a half months. Keep moving forward is the best thing we can do!

In preparation for the upcoming Grimes Street Music Fest we are including the sponsor recognition page from last years event. This year will be different but it will still be held on July 3rd on the Lee County Courthouse Lawn! Make plans to spend the day with us and celebrate all the wonderful things we are so grateful for in Giddings. Small Town Life has it's rewards!

There will be updates soon about the canceled and postponed events that are on the community calendar. We will keep you posted.
