Good morning, Beaumont.

On Sunday, a Southeast Texas bakery held its annual Día de los Muertos festival at Super Antojo de Hidalgo Bakery in Beaumont to honor lost loved ones with local vendors, dance performances, and a community altar.

Organizers collected children’s books for a retired teacher in Hidalgo—Beaumont Mayor Roy West said the event helps build unity.

A grass fire that began as a controlled debris burn on FM 1747 near County Road 160 on Sunday was swiftly contained by the Beech Grove Volunteer Fire Department—firefighters arrived at 1:42 p.m., managed the blaze in 15 minutes, reported no injuries or threatened structures, and urged residents to refrain from outdoor burning amid dry conditions.

Beaumont’s Proposition C will invest $37M in park upgrades—including new playground equipment in nine parks, restroom renovations, and synthetic turf for three softball fields—as part of a $264M bond designed to renew aging facilities and improve community access.

Southeast Texas high school football will finish its regular season this week as Beaumont United must win over Sterling to make the playoffs while Port Arthur Memorial, already crowned district champions, remains confident.

Other teams such as West Brook, West Orange-Stark, PN-G, and Hardin will play pivotal games that could decide league titles—local fans expect dramatic finishes.
