hello FROM KRISTI
We
are just days away from the Winter Texan Expo! We are so excited to see all of you at the largest Winter-Texan event in the Rio Grande Valley! It’s a party just for you, and we work tirelessly throughout the year to provide you with a welcome-home celebration like none other! The best thing about the Winter Texan Expo? Well, for starters, it’s free. And it’s indoors, so the show will go on, rain or shine. The parking’s free, too! And did I mention the amazing entertainment lineup we have planned for you, which is also, free? We have a wide variety of vendors from travel and health and wellness to entertainment and adventure. You won’t leave empty handed, either. In fact, there’s so much to take home with you, we’ll even give you a bag to hold all of your goodies. In the pages that follow, you’ll find an insert with our vendor list, vendor map, and entertainment lineup. Bring it with you to the show! We look forward to seeing you January 15-16 at the 26th Annual Winter Texan Expo! • We’re just connecting the dots,
Kristi
