Monday, April 13, 2026, at 4:00 pm, the Pittsburg City Council met in the City Hall’s Council Room, for their monthly meeting. All but one of the Councilmen were there. There was a full agenda.
The Great Texas Land Rush, a program of the Texas Almanac and Texas State Historical Association, since 2011, allows individuals to “adopt” Texas towns, counties, lakes, or colleges to support historical preservation. Adopters receive a frameable certificate and can add a customized message, landrush.texasalmanac. com. Thisprojectallowspeople to honor family, pioneers, or businesses while supporting historical research. Funds help support the preservation of Texas history, with names displayed on the Texas Almanac website and in the Handbook of Texas. Some historical Camp County communities that would benefit from the program include:
The Performance Supply Company Players present “HOLLYWOOD COMES TO CACTUS COUNTY,” a hilariously fun play being performed in Pittsburg, April 17–19. Written and directed by Jodie Wilk, it is about a movie being made in a small East Texas town.
Saturday night at 7:00 pm to 10:00 pm, the city of Pittsburg ROCKED with the annual Hee Haw performance. The enthusiastic and appreciative audience filled all of the seats. From the introduction by Harold Kennington who served as Master of Ceremonies, to the finale with over 40 people on stage, it was an exhilarating production. There were cast and staff members who had been with the Hee Haw program since the beginning 29 years ago. Some of the entertainers have been with the company since they were in high school.
