The Texarkana Dragon Boat Race Festival is back for 2023! This event is so much fun for participants and spectators and is a huge fundraiser for Hands-on Texarkana. The festival kicks off Saturday, May 13 at Bringle Lake beginning at 9:00 am.
The most important thing to have for the traffic that comes with getting in and out of the Four States Fairgrounds during Fair & Rodeo is PATIENCE. These are the plans, but you are going to run into issues and if you expect it, well, it just seems easier. Share these with folks that you know are going.
