A special congratulations goes out to all of the graduating seniors who have decided to serve our country by joining the armed forces. I was blessed to have met seniors from throughout Precinct 3 and thank them for their future service at this year's Our Community Salutes recognition event!

Tornillo ISD

Thank you to the students of Tornillo ISD for helping us celebrate the construction of 3.3 miles of new sidewalks that will connect neighborhoods to schools and provide a safe place for our students to walk and ride their bikes! Also, keep an eye out for construction to begin soon on another walking trail coming soon to Tornillo!

Sound the Alarm and Save a Life!!

Thank you to all of the volunteers who contributed their time to the Red Cross Sound the Alarm event which resulted in the installation of 300 smoke alarms in San Elizario this month! Thank you to ESD #2, the City of San Elizario, AYUDA and the Office of Congressman Tony Gonzales for coming out to help!

Capistrano Elementary School

The Knights of Columbus Council #15799 in Fabens had their annual Good Friday Fish Fry fundraiser this month! Thank you to the Knights for all that they do for the Fabens community! The fish was delicious!!

Easter Egg Hunt at the Ysleta del Sur Pueblo

We had so much fun with the students and staff of the Ysleta del Sur Pueblo’s Empowerment Department hunting for Easter Eggs and running around with the Easter Bunny! The weather was beautiful and the kids loved spending time outdoors!

Ysleta del Sur Pueblo

Art Market

The Ysleta del Sur Pueblo Cultural Center vendors treated us to some fresh-baked Tigua bread this past month. It was delicious as always! Additionally, we met vendors selling their beautifully hand-made jewelry, clothing and household items. Please feel free to visit and you will be amazed!

Familias Triunfadoras Easter Egg Hunt

Thank you to all of the promotoras from Familias Triunfadoras for organizing the Easter Egg Hunt at the Placita in San Elizario this month! It was wonderful to see the children having so much fun hunting for eggs, but judging the dance contest was definitely the best part!

2nd Annual Easter Bunny Hop

We had a wonderful turnout at the 2nd Annual Easter Bunny Hop hosted by Economy Wholesale Grocers at 411 N. Zaragoza Rd.! My staff and I were able to provide free books to avid readers as they picked up books for the kids and grandkids and even themselves!! And the car show was quite the show stopper!

Pledge of Allegiance

Please help us applaud all of the students who recite the Pledge of Allegiance at the start of our weekly Commissioners Court meetings. You make us very proud!
