2010-IFEA-Festival-And-Event-Entry-HIDALGO-TX.Pdf Page 2 IFEA Although there is an economic benefit to having hundreds of thousands of visitors in our community, by and large, the local volunteers have nothing to gain but the pride they experience in being a part of spreading joy and happiness. It has always being about the people of Hidalgo doing great things that are not supposed to happen in poor border towns. It has always been about sons and daughters of immigrants teaming up to become Texas State champions in marching band, soccer, cross country and mariachi competitions. It has always been about people banding together with a common mission to make Hidalgo the beautiful place it is and it is this unity in spirit that makes Hidalgo an IFEA World Festival and Event City!

  • 2021 Rio Grande Valley/Deep S. Texas Hurricane Guide
    The Official Rio Grande Valley/Deep South Texas HURRICANE GUIDE 2021 IT ONLY TAKES ONE STORM! weather.gov/rgv A Letter to Residents After more than a decade of near-misses, 2020 reminded the Rio Grande Valley and Deep South Texas that hurricanes are still a force to be reckoned with. Hurricane Hanna cut a swath from Padre Island National Seashore in Kenedy County through much of the Rio Grande Valley in late July, leaving nearly $1 billion in agricultural and property damage it its wake. While many may now think that we’ve paid our dues, that sentiment couldn’t be further from the truth! The combination of atmospheric and oceanic patterns favorable for a landfalling hurricane in the Rio Grande Valley/Deep South Texas region can occur in any season, including this one. Residents can use the experience of Hurricane Hanna in 2020 as a great reminder to be prepared in 2021. Hurricanes bring a multitude of hazards including flooding rain, damaging winds, deadly storm surge, and tornadoes. These destructive forces can displace you from your home for months or years, and there are many recent cases in the United States and territories where this has occurred. Hurricane Harvey (2017), Michael (2018, Florida Panhandle), and Laura (2020, southwest Louisiana) are just three such devastating events. This guide can help you and your family get prepared. Learn what to do before, during and after a storm. Your plan should include preparations for your home or business, gathering supplies, ensuring your insurance is up to date, and planning with your family for an evacuation.
