Good morning, Temple.

Central Texans will honor Veterans Day on Tuesday with ceremonies, parades and special offers from local and national businesses.

The events will unite the community and show respect for veterans—bringing a spirit of gratitude and remembrance.

Temple emergency responders who answered a once-in-a-lifetime crash call last spring were honored in Washington, D.C— they received a national award for their heroic work.

Tractor Supply donated $250 each to Temple Fire & Rescue & Temple Police Department in honor of National Hometown Heroes Day.

The contribution supports our local first responders.
