I attended the Texas A&M Agrilife Extension seminar on Rose Rosette Demystified. It was really informative, the presenter was very nice and answered all necessary questions needed to maintain a beautiful rose garden. I show pictures of vendors but the only way to get the full effect of everyone present would be to attend, I didn't get everyone although I wanted to.. Thank you Waxahachie Civic Center for hosting such an informative and family friendly event. God Blesses your path.

My fiancé and me are extremely disappointed with how the Waxahachie Civic Center handled our…read morewedding booking. Our reservation was canceled because they double booked the day and called it a "glitch". This is a mistake that should NEVER happen, especially for something as important as a wedding. What makes this even more frustrating is that the Lori (staff member) who we spoke with the day we reserved the venue was not helpful and came across as very rude. But, she sure was quick to take our deposit without knowing what was and wasn't available on their own schedule. No glitch there, huh? This situation shows a serious lack of organization and accountability. If you're managing bookings for MAJOR life events, you need to be fully aware of what is and isn't reserved before taking people's money. This was a completely avoidable mistake, and it caused unnecessary stress during what should be an exciting time. I strongly urge them to improve their booking system, communication, and staff so no one else has to go through this.

It is very open and looks like it could be used as a small convention site, huge social function, a bazar, wedding or large party! In fact, there were left over streams that looked like a wedding reception had been held. It seems like an old building but had been recently refurbished/painted. For our event, we were seated at large round tables which means some had to turn their chairs. Although we were only there about 3 hours, the venue worked.

Forest Hill is a small city with a need for a gathering place/community center, like the Forest…read moreHill Civic & Convention Center. One of my relatives mentioned that she wanted to host a mini family reunion but she needed a venue in the Fort Worth area. After brainstorming with a few other relatives, this venue came up. The venue is fairly new and has already hosted many events, from gospel concerts to weekly church services to other gatherings. There are smaller rooms that can be transformed to accommodate the needs of various groups and there is also the grand ballroom that can be rented for more formal events. The prices are very reasonable (think around $300, that's a steal for 4 hours) and includes tables and chairs. You will have to pay a deposit but if you clean up after your event, you deposit will be returned. In addition to being very spacious on the inside, there is plenty of parking outside as well. This is a great venue and should not be overlooked because of its location.

I love concerts at HEB Center in Cedar Park. I was 40 minutes out from show time. Was panicking…read morethinking I was going to be in traffic just to get to the center. Panicking thinking I'm not going to find parking. Panicking about long lines to get inside. Just overthinking I was going to be late. BUT.... The drive in was easy. Parking was quick and UP FRONT. I got in line which there were several lines in front of several doors. I think maybe 15 people ahead of me. Was in line maybe 6 minutes. Lined moved super quick. I was trying to get my online ticket to load up. While I was getting my bag checked. My ticket came up, I walked over to a lady with a scanner. She scanned my ticket, and I was in. Woohoo! Everything about this concert experience was outstanding. Found my seat easily. And man, this actually was an amazing seat. I was on the end row, and near the stage. Was a fantastic night. Foreigner was outstanding. Very engaging with the audience. They stand at one corner of the stage. Point and wave to the audience. Stand in the middle, point and wave, and to the other corner. Talked a little about past stories from other concerts. Tell a little personal story about themselves. And give to local charities. The best part was bringing some school kids up on stage from a local school. Talking about donating to their school to keep the arts alive. That these kids are the future of music. And that's so important. Who doesn't feel like crap at some point in their life, put on their favorite music, start signing, screaming, dancing, and start to feel better. We need music. Foreigner is real music. No auto tune, no fillers, nothing artificial. It's just lyrics of love, heartache, & pain. Speaking to your soul. Not one of us in the whole stadium was Gen X tonight. I promise you, we were whatever age, on our first date when we heard Foreigner. We had our first kiss, we had, maybe something else. For a band to pull you back 30/40 years, that's epic. Nothing short of magical. For the young bloods out there. You've heard of a Foreigner song, I'm sure of it. In movies, and TV shows. Pitch Perfect. Stranger Things. Rock Of Ages, Jennifer's Body, Footloose, I'm sure even more. Awesome night. Grateful for concerts coming to Austin. And I have 2 great stadiums in my area. HEB Center in Cedar Park is my favorite though.

I attended the concert at HEB Center to see Anthony Hamilton and Fantasia and purchased the All In…read morePremium Loge Package. The Great The All In Premium Loge package was a strong value. It includes two tickets in a semi private area, a parking pass, two alcoholic drinks each, unlimited non alcoholic beverages, and a full buffet. The view was unobstructed and excellent. There is an elevator that takes you directly to the correct level, which makes access easy. The bathrooms were clean, close by, and had no lines. The dedicated area for food and drinks meant we avoided the long bar lines, which was a big plus. The buffet included salad, vegetables, mashed potatoes, chicken, carved beef, rolls, and desserts. The line moved quickly and the food was enjoyable. The Good While the food was solid, the seating area does not include tables to place your food or drinks. The seats did not appear to be larger than standard seating and there is no additional legroom. (I'm 5'10") That was a bit surprising for a premium package. Although the view was unobstructed, the venue could benefit from additional jumbo screens placed around the arena. The main screen could also be zoomed in more to enhance the experience. The Bad The sound quality was the most disappointing part of the night. The music was too loud and at times you could not hear the artists clearly. Both Anthony Hamilton and Fantasia are powerhouse vocalists who do not need heavy production. Instead of clear, crisp voice isolation, they sounded muffled. After multiple audience complaints, the sound improved, but it was distracting and took away from the experience. The package also advertised dedicated guest services and event staff support. Unfortunately, that was not our experience. We could not find anyone to help us locate our seats or answer questions. The only visible staff were those managing the buffet and the check in area. For a premium experience, that was frustrating. Overall Despite the issues, I had a great time with my friend and we truly enjoyed the concert. I would consider using the All In Premium Loge Package again, but with adjusted expectations. Tips * Avoid the main entrance and use a secondary entrance for quicker entry. * If you do not have a bag, use the express line. (We had small clear bags and were allowed to use th express lane) * Download your tickets to your wallet before you get to the event. * The highway exit for the event can feel chaotic with heavy traffic and aggressive drivers. Consider driving past the first entrance and heading to the second exit. * Take your time after the event to avoid the traffic jam. All in all, it was a fun night. With a few operational improvements, especially around sound quality and guest services, the experience could move from good to great.

The place was perfectly set up and extremely clean. I can't say enough about it and beside all that; it's a deal. The way they price the venue your food and drink order works against that..you won't get a better deal for such a high quality place with great parking, exceptional food and service thats second to none.
