Good afternoon, friends. Please pick up your copy of your hometown news source, on stands today! Inside this week's Booster, you'll find the summer edition of the quarterly East Texan magazine.

Our most fervent prayers are with our Hill Country brethren in the wake of the flooding tragedy last week. We are inviting our readers to help with the recovery efforts. One way you can do that is to donate via the Community Foundation, which is serving as the collection point for recovery efforts. Visit the organization's website at www.communityfoundation.net or calling 830-896-8811. Donations can also be mailed The Community Foundation of the Texas Hill Country, 241 Earl Garrett Street, Kerrville, Texas 78028.

Our Tyler County Emergency Management post is also taking donations of gift cards, for such retailers as Walmart, Home Depot, etc., and those can be dropped off at the EOC, located at 201 Veterans Way in Woodville, where they will be collected and sent toward the relief efforts.

We will have updated information on the tragedy and more information as to how you can get involved on our site easttexasnews.com.

Thanks, friends.

Good afternoon friends!
We have a special gift for one lucky person and here’s how to get it: the first person who drops by our office, located at 205 West Bluff, with a Roman candle to share with us gets four tickets to Big Rivers waterpark. Now that’s a deal, wouldn’t you say?

On your mark, get set, go!
