🎓 $251,000 in scholarships. 45 students. Countless futures changed.

On May 12th, we had the honor of celebrating the 2025-26 Heart O' Texas Fair & Rodeo Scholar Recognition Banquet, and what a night it was.

Congratulations to our Top Scholar, Paisley Groschke of Riesel High School ($25,000), Reserve Top Scholar Liam Miller of Glen Rose High School ($20,000), and Third Scholar John Yarbrough of Midlothian High School ($15,000).

This year we also proudly introduced our brand-new Career & Technical Education (CTE) Scholarship, supporting students pursuing hands-on, workforce-ready careers. Swipe to meet this year's incredible class. 👉

Thank you to our sponsors and volunteers whose tireless efforts make this possible every year. ❤️

🥳 Congratulations to our top selling Heart O’ Texas Fair & Rodeo Volunteers who are enjoying the beautiful views in Cabo!
Every year our volunteers help us raise money for Youth Scholarships by helping sell tickets and other items for the Fair. The pre-sale campaign kicks off this year in June, and Volunteers will have through the first week of September to help us raise those funds. At the end of the campaign, the top sellers get to go on a fun ALL PAID week-long vacation to a surprise destination AND they get to bring a plus one. It’s something we all look forward to every year!
