This is something that is a real big deal. Hot rod Power Tour 2013 will travel from Arlington TX to North Concord NC. The first leg of the tour will go right through downtown Pittsburg. My guess is they will be here sometime after lunch on Sunday.

…And don’t forget to go VOTE ! Saturday is your last chance to vote in the School Board/Bond Election.
The first Ghost Hunt was a Huge success! A lot of people showed up and said they would be back. Loved the history stories too!! Thanks to everyone that helped!
….. If you are a Treasure Seeker and/or would like to de-junk while earning extra cash, you should mark your Calendar for the East Texas Treasure Trails – Friday- Saturday, May 17-18.

MISS PITTSBURG PAGEANT !!!!
It is really not a pageant at all…more like a leadership training with scholarship opportunities for girls 16 – 20 (I believe). The girls will meet once a week during the summer, do volunteer work, and have some training including leadership, etiquette, hair and make-up, the history of camp county, etc. If you use Facebook, please help us spread the word by liking and sharing. Also, if you know girls in Camp County that would benefit from this and need scholarship money for college, encourage them to look into it. The informational meeting is May 21st at 7:30 pm at Faulkner Chevrolet in Pittsburg.
Saturday, May 18th at 6:30 pm
