We would like to thank the City of McAllen TX Government, McAllen Parks and Recreation, Visit McAllen and Pony for their teamwork and support during this weekend’s softball qualifier tournament. Their coordination brought 54 teams to our city and helped create a positive experience for athletes, coaches, and families. Your dedication strengthens sports tourism, supports local businesses, and showcases McAllen as a premier destination for youth competition. Thank you for helping deliver a successful event.

🗓️ Have you marked your calendars for next Saturday, November 15th? 🗓️ We're super excited for a very special event: a FREE FILM SCREENING and a chance to MEET THE LOCAL FILMMAKERS! 🎥 Come watch "ANCIENT LANDSCAPES OF SOUTH TEXAS: Hiding in Plain Sight" together with your fellow nature lovers. It's a short documentary about the remarkable history behind the Lower Rio Grande Valley's natural landscapes and the clues left behind: ancient beaches and drowned shorelines, evidence of a large volcanic eruption that changed Earth’s climate, shifting sand, giant oysters and mammoths, petrified forests and thousand-year-old living trees, tiny zircon crystals, and a mighty river. This landscape shaped the lives of the Valley's earliest humans, and we're reshaping the landscape and its ecosystems today. The wonderful educators from UTRGV's Community Historical Archaeology Project with Schools Program (Utrgv Chaps) are going to be in-store to introduce their film. CHAPS is a consortium of anthropologists and archaeologists, biologists, historians, geologists, and geoarchaeologists. We can't wait! 🟠 Refreshments provided. 🟠 Book signing after the film. (The companion book will be available for sale.) 🟠 Plus, a NATIVE PLANT SALE! 🛒🌻🌿 🌐 Learn more about the filmmakers, the CHAPS program, and more details at www.facebook.com/wbumcallen/events and mcallen.wbu.com/events Happy birding, from the RGV's friendly backyard bird feeding experts! ❤️🐦 #wbumcallen #rgvbirds #backyardbirding #mcallentexas #riograndevalley #Riograndevalleytexas #birding #birds #shoplocal #supportsmallbusinessowners #nativeplants #gardening
