Talk about marching to the beat of your own drum! 🎷🏈

Meet Josh Wymore, Grapevine High senior, Mustang football player AND member of the Mustang Band!

Josh wears two hats (well, technically a helmet and a saxophone strap), and when halftime rolls around, he doesn't exactly blend into the crowd. While his fellow band members performed, Josh was out there playing saxophone in full football pads!

And yes, he does this during every halftime show!

If you spotted #45 on the field last night, now you know the story behind this one-of-a-kind Mustang. He's proof that you don't have to choose between Friday night lights and the marching band. You can do both!

One of our hometown girls is about to star in one of the year’s most anticipated movies! 🎥 🎞️

McKenna Grace, who was born right here in Grapevine, is stepping into the world of Panem as part of The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping, hitting theaters November 20, 2026. And she’s already out making the press rounds for the highly anticipated film! 🎬

If you’ve followed McKenna’s career, you know she’s been a Hollywood standout since she was just a little girl. Her résumé is seriously impressive for someone who is only 20!

She’s appeared in major films including Gifted, I, Tonya, Captain Marvel, Annabelle Comes Home, Ghostbusters: Afterlife, Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire and Five Nights at Freddy’s 2. She’s also made appearances in hit television series like The Handmaid’s Tale and The Haunting of Hill House. Talk about a career!

So what’s her new movie about?

Sunrise on the Reaping takes us back 24 years before the original Hunger Games story, following a young Haymitch Abernathy as he enters the 50th Hunger Games, also known as the Second Quarter Quell. McKenna plays Maysilee Donner, a District 12 tribute who becomes an important part of Haymitch’s story.

The star-studded cast also includes Joseph Zada, Elle Fanning, Ralph Fiennes, Glenn Close, Maya Hawke and Kieran Culkin.

From growing up in Grapevine to joining one of Hollywood’s biggest movie franchises, McKenna Grace is one to watch!

We love seeing hometown talent make it BIG! ❤️

If the lines seemed a little longer Friday, there's a reason! 🗳️

The final day of early voting turned out to be the busiest of the entire early-voting period at Grapevine Public Library, with 1,914 voters on Oct. 30. The same was true at Southlake Town Hall, with 2,118, and the Colleyville Recreation Center Annex A, with 1,489.

Early-voting traffic also increased at all three local voting locations compared with 2022: Grapevine +19%, Southlake +10% and Colleyville +29%.

And Friday was the busiest day countywide, too, with 62,656 people casting ballots.

📍 Remember: These figures show ballots cast at each voting location, not the number of residents from each city who voted.

🇺🇸 Election Day is Tuesday, Nov. 3.

Facebook detectives, we need your help! 🔎

Rebecca Byron was out for a walk this morning when she stumbled upon something pretty special: 10 handwritten recipe cards near the corner of Dooley and Dallas Road.

The cards appear to be quite old and had gotten a good soaking from the sprinklers. Rebecca believes they may have belonged to someone’s grandmother, and she’d love to get them back into the right family’s hands.

These aren’t just recipes; they could be a little piece of family history, handwritten and passed down through generations.

Let’s do what Grapevine does best and help reunite them with their family!

Do your thing, Facebook!

🧵 WHEN ONE DOOR CLOSES, A NEW FABRIC STORE OPENS! ❤️

Remember JoAnn Fabrics in Grapevine? Well, here’s a story we absolutely love!

Some of the former JoAnn employees weren’t ready to say goodbye to their sewing community when the store closed. So they decided to do something about it… and opened a store of their own!

And get this: they’re just feet away from the old JoAnn location! How fun is that?!

The new locally owned shop is ready to welcome the sewing community with fabric, notions, sewing classes, sewing machine repairs, and sewing machines from Husqvarna Viking and Singer.

And now they have their sign up, too! 🎉

So if you’ve been missing your fabric-shopping fix, you have a new place to visit!

📍 1236 William D Tate Ave, Grapevine, TX 76051

🕙 Tuesday–Friday: 10 a.m.–5 p.m.
🕙 Saturday: 10 a.m.–4 p.m.

Go show this local crew some love! ❤️
