‘THE SOUND OF TEXAS’ TO FEATURE TEXAS INDEPENDENCE CELEBRATION

  

Tumbleweed Smith will be featuring the Texas Independence Day Celebration at Washington-on-the-Brazos during Thursday’s edition of The Sound of Texas.

Broadcasting for more than a quarter of a century, The Sound of Texas is one of the longest running syndicated radio programs in the state.

The program will feature the Texas Independence Day Celebration, which is taking place this weekend on the park grounds and in its three attractions: Independence Hall (replica of the site where representatives wrote the Texas Declaration of Independence); Star of the Republic Museum (collections and programs honoring history of early Texans, administered by Blinn College); and Barrington Living History Farm (where interpreters dress, work and farm as did the original residents of this homestead).

The birthday celebration features live music, food, traditional crafts, living history presentations, historical encampments and commemorative programs so guests can experience life in Texas in 1836.

Tune in to KWHI every Monday through Friday at 7:21 a.m. and then at 12:40 p.m. to hear The Sound of Texas.
