Old Dairy Queen Building...

Body
Rumors were circulating on social media last week that a new restaurant was opening in the old Dairy Queen building. Sadly, Dairy Queen employees were only there to clean out the building. At this time there are no contracts in place for anyone to open up a new restaurant in the building. (The Facebook post suggested a Southern Fried Chicken, but we have no validation of that rumor.)

Pineland Day Festivities Officially Underway

Body
It’s that time again! Every odd numbered year Pineland has the spectacle known as Pineland Day, while their sister city Diboll has Diboll Day every even numbered year. August 16 saw the festivities, hoopla and general fanfare of Pineland Day get underway with the Kickoff Banquet at the VFW Hall.. From what I saw the turnout was great and the crowd was lively. Many prizes were awarded to the audience in attendance and a great time was had by all.
