Hedley heritage keepers

by Leave a Comment

In the days before the Cotton Festival, Hedley area residents held an annual Old Settlers Picnic on the Tom Tate Place northeast of Hedley. In the 1950s, the picnic merged with the Cotton Festival, but members of the Tate family are still active participants in the celebration. Shown here are four generations of the Tate family: Kaylan Cosby, Kennedy Cosby, Juanell Tate Carson, Nanci Cosby Johnson, Susan Carson Cosby, and Addison Tate Reed. Jaunell is the daughter of the late Tom and Myrtle Tate and lives on the Tate Place with her husband, Bill Carson, and they own Moffitt Hardware in Hedley. The place has been in the family for more than 100 years. Susan Carson Cosby lives in Amarillo with her husband, Stan, and Nanci and the girls live in Oklahoma. Enterprise Photo / Kari Lindsey

Don’t Mess with Texas

As a grand finale to National 4H Week, members and their families helped make Texas beautiful by picking up trash off Highway 287. Included in the 30 bags collected were pieces of tire, plastic bottles, aluminum cans and Styrofoam cups. Other fun treasures included Leonard Haynes’ trailer light. The members were treated to hamburgers at the Donley County Activity Center afterwards. Although this is a good service project for 4H, the Texas DOT reminds all travelers - Don’t Mess with Texas! They say one out of every two Texans litter. Don’t be “the one.” Courtesy Photo / Chardy Craft
