The Waxahachie Visitors and Tourism office has reached out to see if there will be reenactment events for this year. As of yet there is no new coordinator so we don't have anyone to point them to for an event. If someone is willing to step in for this year, please PM so you can be placed in contact with the city personnel.

Looks like the bridge is coming down.

Beginning tomorrow, Friday, June 4, the Hike and Bike Trail will be closed at the old viaduct to allow for demolition. This closure is expected to last several weeks. Trail users may still access the trail at Getzendaner Park to the viaduct, and from Rogers Street to Lions Park. Additionally, Little Creek Trail and the Waxahachie Sports Complex Trail will both be open and fully accessible as an alternative during this closure.

Good afternoon. We have received a few inquiries regarding this year's event and schedule. The workplace demands on previous coordinators have made it necessary to find another organizer to lead the way. Please send a PM if you live in the DFW area and you are willing to step into the role for this year and possibly beyond. Materials, contacts, and introductions will gladly be conveyed to keep this event going.
