Double Oak Annual July 4th Festival – See you on Tuesday!

The parade and picnic will be held on Tuesday, July 4.

The tree work has been completed, and the parade will begin at 9:30 at the intersection of Simmons and Cross Timbers Dr. and will course down Cross Timbers Drive ending at John B Wright Park.

The picnic will start at 10:00, with our favorite band Triple Lindy providing festive music. As in years past, we will have food and beverages, bounce houses and water slides, a silent auction, and much more.

The DOVFD members are out selling raffle tickets with $500 gift cards to Lowes, Academy, and our favorite Old Town Market as prizes. 

If you would like to provide donations for the Silent Auction or volunteer for the event, please contact Chief Heimerdinger at Chief552@dovfd.org.

Double Oak 50th Birthday Logo – Please get out and vote for your favorite design!

The Double Oak 50th Birthday logo designs will be available for viewing at the 4th of July picnic. Please look for the 50th Birthday table at the Fourth of July festival and cast your vote for your favorite logo that we’ll utilize over the next year on flags, T-shirts, etc.

We are looking forward to seeing everyone there!
