Stephenville Main Street will host a special guest in October to celebrate the city’s induction into Texas’ Main Street network.
Cecilia Abbott - the First Lady of Texas – will join city officials in a ceremony at the Erath County Courthouse at 10:30 a.m. on Tuesday, Oct.
“Since entering the program in 2021, Stephenville has supported downtown businesses and expanded the Saturday Farmer’s Market,” the release states.
“Downtown Stephenville has had six private-sector rehabilitation projects, four public-private projects and a net gain of eight businesses and 22 jobs.”
Since 1981, every Texas First Lady has participated in the First Lady's Main Street Tour, an event that features a public ceremony with her remarks and a reception to celebrate the community’s entrance into the statewide Main Street program.
