Texas State Parks celebrate Veteran's day

Submitted by Scott McLendon on November 8, 2019 - 8:51am

To celebrate Veteran’s Day, Texas State Parks will waive day-use entry fees for everyone on Sunday, Nov. 10.

Texas Parks and Wildlife encourages residents to gather family and friends and spend the day exploring a park, for free, and say thanks to a veteran.

Parks like Sea Rim State Park, Walter Umphrey State Park and Village Creek State Park will all have free admission on Sunday.

Find a Texas State Park to visit at TexasStateParks.org.

While we harbor no disrespect for the Wall Street Journal who called us “that scrappy little paper from Southeast Texas,” we prefer to think of ourselves as simple seekers of the truth. We’re of the opinion that headlines and sound bites never tell the whole story. Our readers demand all the facts, facets and flavors of every story or event. And, they expect to be informed, educated and stirred to action.
