Sweet.

Today our hearts were touched by the kindness of a very special young lady who stopped by the Ingram Fire Station. With a big smile and even bigger heart, Alexandria Carpenter 3.5 years old, brought handmade bracelets for our volunteers—each one crafted with love and a message of support.

In the midst of all the challenges, it’s moments like these that remind us of the goodness in the world. Her simple act of kindness brought joy to every firefighter/volunteers here and reminded us that even the smallest gestures can leave the biggest impact.

Thank you, sweet girl, for reminding us what community truly means. 💛🚒

We fixed the date. We fixed the spelling. Let’s escape together.
Well... let’s just say we got a little too relaxed in Margaritaville.

Yes, we sent out the wrong date.
Yes, we spelled Margaritaville wrong.
Yes, Jimmy Buffett would be shaking his head (probably with a margarita in hand).

But the heart of this event remains the same:
We invite you to join us for A Shared Escape — a one-night performance of Jimmy Buffett’s Escape to Margaritaville on Saturday, July 26 at 7:30 PM at 120 Point Theatre Rd., Ingram

After everything this community has faced, we want to offer a little music, a little laughter, and a chance to be together—no ticket required, just show up and bring a chair.

🎭 Admission is by donation (nothing is required)
🪑 Bring your own chair
🍹 Please, no outside alcohol (TABC rules!) We will have snacks and drinks for sale.

Let’s share a night of island vibes, feel-good songs, and the simple joy of being in the same place at the same time.

Thank you for your grace, your support, and your sense of humor. We’ll see you Saturday—this time for real.
