Texas First Lady Anita Perry, acting as honorary chair, in partnership with the Texas Historical Commission (THC) is honoring communities that have shown a high level of creativity and ingenuity in recognizing and preserving their authentic Texas sense of place. These communities use the resources and preservation tools available from the THC and others to realize significant economic benefits as a result of their strong cultural and historic preservation stewardship.

The Castroville Municipal Airport pilots host an EAA (Experimental Aircraft Association) internationally sponsored event twice a year introducing flights to ages 7 years to 17 years of age. The “Young Eagles” also are introduced to the world of aviation and the potential for a career in aviation. In addition, the “Young Eagles” obtain a certificate. We have a lot of fun with this very rewarding event. Want to know when the next Castroville Young Eagles event is? Sign Up for News and Views at the top of the page or click here.
