April Showers Are Still Around
They say that in Texas if you don’t like the weather, then wait a moment and it will change soon. It’s so true for this weekend. We have beautiful sunshine and 80 degrees forecast for Saturday’s Duncan Switch Street Market. But they are predicting rain to come in late Saturday and heavy rains on Sunday through next week. We hope that they are wrong and that we can have good weather to play the golf tournament on Monday, May 17th. We will be watching closely and if we have to postpone then we will call everyone to let them know. An alternate date for rescheduling would be Monday, June 28th.
Say your Prayers but be sure to come out and enjoy our “7” Year Anniversary Celebration of the Duncan Switch Street Market. Be one of the first 100 there and receive a FREE Snow-cone from the Chamber.

April Showers bring May Flowers….
May flowers are here and to me that means an opportunity to blossom from what happened in the past year, month, or day. Even though some days can be hard and seem to be overwhelming and never-ending; we must remember that life is about lessons and we should try to learn something each day. By doing so, we grow, blossom and become our best selves, which then allows us to help others. My challenge for you this week is to find an area in your life where you can blossom and end your week with a smile in your heart.
Happy Mother’s Day to all the wonderful Mothers. You are valued and appreciated.

Four Powerful Words I Learned This Week
I heard a phrase used this week that stuck with me. The person said that as we hear people talk of their political affiliation, their race, their religion, their financial situation or just the place that they may be in their life at the time,
“STOP JUDGING & START LOVING.”
Read this again and again. Do not make assumptions or be too quick to react to a person’s statement or feelings. We may not know anything about them or their current situation but we sometimes judge them too quickly.
Stay Safe and Be Kind To Each Other, And Always Shop Local!

I Want to Share Two Important Words
The much needed rain is coming in today and tonight. I pray that none of it is severe but after the rain passes tonight it is supposed to be a beautiful weekend.
So my two important words that I want to share with you is simply “SHOP LOCAL.” Get out and enjoy the beautiful weather and support your local businesses and restaurants. They still need and want your help.
We were disappointed to have to cancel the April Duncan Switch Street Market. But as a reminder the May Market comes soon as the 3rd Saturday is only the 2nd week of the month. The Street Market goes from 9:00 AM – 3:00 PM. Watch for announcements coming soon for the May Market. Hope to see you Saturday, May 15th.

Get Out and Enjoy Spring
Spring is here and it’s time to get out and enjoy being in the world. With vaccines being received, some feel more comfortable about getting out. (But remain cautious and respectful of others and wear your masks.) Check out our area restaurants with patios and enjoy the outdoors. Also take a visit to our parks to walk, play and to have a picnic.
Our businesses have weathered the storms of the Covid-19 Pandemic, the snow storms and are now looking to a brighter and sunny tomorrow. You can help them to do just that by Shopping Local.
We welcome you to come out and shop local at the Duncan Switch Street Market this Saturday (event cancelled due to weather conditions) from 9:00 AM -3:00 PM. It’s a great place to shop local for your Mother’s Day gifts. And you can also enjoy a hot dog, a hamburger, a snow cone or ice cream plus we have some great BBQ by Elite BBQ and the Pynk Pit. Hope to see you Saturday.
