The water tower is lit in red this week, in honor of Native American Heritage Month and to bring awareness to the plight of missing and murdered Indigenous women. Visit the RDEIC Facebook page here learn more: https://www.facebook.com/RowlettDEIC

We’re a couple of weeks away from our Holiday festivities, and next week, we’re going to release another My Rowlett Podcast episode around family fun events and activities that you can participate in this season like the fan favorite- Main St. Fest & Holiday Parade.

And since next week is thanksgiving, the City of Rowlett offices and facilities will be closed. And we won’t have an episode of Friday @ 5 next week either. I hope you get to enjoy time with people you love and eat yummy food.
