Message from the Mayor:

Hello again, Watauga. We closed out May with a bang. After a two-year hiatus, Wataugafest returned. Hats off to the Parks Department and the many volunteers who made it a success. GREAT JOB, everybody! We followed that up with the much anticipated and requested reopening of the Splash Pad. It looks to be 'the hit' of the season again. We finished with Memorial Day weekend, time set aside to honor and remember the men and women who gave their lives in service to our country.

June means summer is just around the corner. Judging from May's temperatures, you would think it was already here, but we still have a few weeks of spring. Schools are out, and kids will be out and about. Our library and the Parks Department will kick off the summer reading program at the Splash Pad on June 1st. That is the start of many events they will hold during the summer.

The long-awaited construction of Whitley Road is starting. Access to City Hall may be somewhat inconvenient for a while, but it will be worth it. As construction progresses, we will be providing updates.

Congratulations to Lt Bobby Parham of the Watauga Police Department for his nomination as our “Hometown Hero.” For those who do not know, Lt Parham collected ballistic vests and personally delivered them to Ukrainian civilians in that war-torn country.

Lastly, Father’s Day is June 19th. Please remember those who are serving and are unable to be with their loved ones. Make it a great day for Dad.

Please be safe and remember that Family, Friends, and Neighbors are what make Watauga “A Great Place to Live.”

Mayor’s Book Club at the Watauga Public Library

Watauga, Texas- Join Mayor Arthur L. Miner at the Watauga Public Library (7109 Whitley Road) on Monday, June 20th at 6:00pm for the Mayor’s Book Club. Our selected book is the classic Love That Dog by Sharon Creech. Join us for a light snack and discussion.

Families will enjoy reading this book together and then participating in the book club at the library. It’s the perfect story to share with kids in 2nd through 5th grade.
We have a limited number of books available to check out at the library. We can also help you request the book from other local libraries.

We will discuss this excellent book, but you don’t need to read the book to attend the event. Everyone is welcome.

This event is free. Call 817-514-5865 for more information
