​The Alamo Police Department is stepping up traffic enforcement to keep our community safe! Thanks to a grant from the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT), our officers will be increasing patrols specifically looking for seatbelt violations.

​Whether you are driving across town or just down the street, please remember to buckle up every single trip. Seatbelts save lives—it’s that simple.

​⚠️ A citation for failing to wear a seatbelt can carry a fine of up to $200.

​Let's work together to keep Alamo roads safe. Buckle up, drive safely, and look out for one another!

Due to the weather, today’s event is canceled. Please stay tuned for updates regarding a potential reschedule date.

Due to the severe storm and unsafe conditions caused by the weather, the Watermelon Festival has been officially postponed.

This decision was not made lightly. Over the past several days, countless hours of work, preparation, and dedication went into bringing this event to life for our community. Unfortunately, the storm caused significant damage to festival areas, equipment, and setup conditions, making it unsafe to continue as planned.

We are truly heartbroken and deeply disappointed, especially knowing how much this event means to so many families, vendors, performers, and staff members. However, the safety of our community will always come first.

This situation was completely outside of our control, and we sincerely appreciate your understanding, patience, and support during this difficult moment.

The Watermelon Festival has been rescheduled for July 2.

Please stay safe, remain sheltered, and continue monitoring weather conditions. Thank you for standing with us through it all. ❤️🍉

Please note: The cook-off competition will continue until all entries have been judged.
