Whitesboro Annual Peanut Festival

10/25/2025

We had the privilege of joining Ronny Gregory of Holiday Auto Group as he handed over the keys to the 2025 Chevy Trax to our giveaway winner, Loretta Bourn (who was proudly raised in Whitesboro).

Also pictured is Tina Newman, Whitesboro Area Chamber of Commerce Manager of Member Services and Events, helping celebrate this special hometown moment as Loretta officially picked up her new ride!

A huge thank you to Holiday Chevrolet for their continued generosity and unwavering support of our festival and community. Congratulations again, Loretta — enjoy the road ahead!

Even a little North Texas rain couldn’t dampen the spirit of our community this past Saturday. Downtown Whitesboro was filled with umbrellas, smiles, and the same smalltown charm that makes this event so special year after year.

To everyone who braved the weather and came out to celebrate—thank you. Your support is what keeps this tradition alive.

A heartfelt thank you to all of our vendors who showed up and set up despite the forecast, our generous sponsors who make this event possible, and the countless volunteers who gave their time, energy, and heart to ensure everything ran smoothly.

We are also sincerely grateful to the city of Whitesboro and our dedicated city workers for their support, preparation, and hard work before, during, and after the event.

And of course, a special thank you to the Whitesboro Area Chamber of Commerce for planning, organizing, and working tirelessly behind the scenes for months to bring this festival to life. So many people put in long days and late nights to make this event happen and we are incredibly grateful.

Despite the rain, it was another fun Peanut Festival —one we won’t soon forget.

Until next year—thank you, Whitesboro.
