Many of us wonder what we can do with our spare time when we have it. For those of us who are not content to spend weekend after weekend at home, here are a few ideas from your neighbors at your local Temple Ford Dealer to get you out and about. Temple is full of events for people of all ages. An event coming up this weekend is the Hoagy’s Heroes Lone Star Six Shooter Charity Run. There are different start times on different days based on which type of run you sign up for. They have runs from 500 miles in 12 hours to 2000 miles in 36 hours. So if you have a motorbike, head on out and ride while supporting local charities!
Next, load up your Ford and head on over to the 5th Annual Battle of Temple Junction Civil War Reenactment. On May 18, prepare to relive the battles of the Civil War. Temple was not founded until many years after the War Between the States was over. The purpose of this event is to demonstrate how the battles were fought and how troops lived and trained during the war. There also are food and period vendors, called Sutlers, who will be selling their wares to the general public and the reenactors.
Near the end of the month, May 25, there is a free movie in the park event. This will take place at Miller Park within the heart of Temple. The featured film is The Lorax which is a movie based on a favorite children’s novel by Dr. Seuss. So bring blankets, chairs, snacks and the kids to this outdoor movie extravaganza. It is sure to provide lifelong memories with the family.
