Dear Citizens,
Is it hot enough for you here in Euless? Well, we have some great ideas for cooling off inside this newsletter.
We hope you are watching the new Senior Center going up in Midway Park next to the Midway Recreation Center. This center is the next phase of the Family Life Center at Midway Park. There was some delay due to all the rain and snow this winter, but the staff is working diligently to catch up and have this new center ready by the end of the year.
The City Council has passed several new ordinances this season and we do hope you will read all the details. The animal ordinance was in response to the many complaints received at City Hall. The Illicit Discharge ordinance will help to protect our waterways from pollution.
As you drive throughout our city you will notice several great restaurants going in. Some of the new restaurants include Tequila Rain on Main Street and Fuzzy's Tacos on Route 10 by Softball World. All of our Euless restaurants can be found on the Euless website at www.EulessTx.gov. Good things are happening in Euless.
Don't forget Raven's Grille at Texas Star is always a great place for a local meal! Our golf course continues to be rated with the best and the Raven's Grill offers some summer goodies. Do you all know that the Raven's Grill at the Texas Star Golf Course is open seven days a week for breakfast, lunch and dinner? It's a fun place to sit on the porch and watch the golfers come in on the 18th hole.
I am very excited about an upcoming ceremony on Sunday, October 24 to unveil an official Texas Historical Marker to the Euless School. This school was in existence from 1913-1955 and was at the site of the current South Euless Elementary School campus. This is only the second school in the district to be recognized by the state and would not have been possible without the cooperation of the City of Euless, HEBISD, the Texas Historical Commission and the Euless Historical Preservation Committee. All are welcome to attend this great event!
Many of our citizens have donated tiles for the Historical Tile Project that will hang in our library. The project has been spearheaded by the Euless Library Foundation. The annual meeting of the Foundation will be on September 17 with Scott Murray as a special guest that evening. All the finished tiles will be on display and they are so beautiful. Do check with the library for details.
And, don't forget to sign up for appointments to the Boards and Commissions. For information on volunteering for a Board please call the City Secretary's office. Applications must be received in September.
Together we are all working to make our city the FABEULESS community we live and work in. Thank you to all our volunteers.
