Single vehicle ACCIDENT claims the LIVES of TWO Cindy Aguirre-Herrera
(Seguin) – Investigation continues into a one vehicle accident that left both the driver and a passenger dead. Sgt. Kenny Mata, of the Texas Department of Public Safety, says the accident happened just before 4 a.m. Thursday on FM 1117. The fatality occurred just south of Highway 90 about a half mile north of mile marker 492. Mata says the 2004 Toyota Tundra pickup truck
was reportedly heading north on FM 1117 when for some unknown reason veered across the roadway into the southbound lane --causing the vehicle to roll. During the rollover accident, the vehicle crashed into barb wire fencing and a tree. The identities of the victims have not been released. However, the victim is said to have been an 80-year-old woman.
LAISSEZ LES BON TEMPS ROULER! SEF Mardi Gras fundraiser pulls in record-breaking dollars Cindy Aguirre-Herrera
(Seguin) – There was no doubt that folks enjoyed celebrating Mardi Gras in Seguin this past week. Whether it was the gumbo, New Orleans hurricanes, live jazz music or the bidding on premier shopping and travel opportunities, the community showed its support to the Seguin Education Foundation which hosted its Mardi Gras Gala on February 23. The gala brought in a record-crushing $103,500. The event has now enabled the SEF to fund grants next fall for innovative teaching throughout Seguin ISD classrooms.
Immediately, though, the SEF donated more than $4,500 of the proceeds for the benefit of The Arts at the SISD’s eight primary-level campuses, which is greatly needed to increase artistic opportunities for pre-k through 5th grade students. Donations during Mardi Gras will also help the SEF fund its annual recognition banquet for the top 10 percent of graduating seniors, enabling each of them to formally pay homage to their educator heroes and to receive a small cash scholarship.
