As I noted in January, the BHSR has made its final run. The plans right now are to leave the site up because a couple of organizations have use for the site to post about meetings and upcoming events. There will be some sturctural changes when my contract to keep eteamz ads off the site ends toward the end of the year.
As some may have already noted, I have begun to close various pages of the website (though may be not soon enough for some). I will begin to take stories and photos off the site in the next few weeks as they right now take up too much space to remain as an eteamz free site.
For those who may yearn for my reporting of Barbers Hill sports, you will still have an option beginning in the fall. I will be doing photography and writing for a new magazine called "Texas High School All-Sports, Inc". The only catch is what was once free will now be available via a subscription. Hopefully the years I have harvested with this site will pay off in monetary rewards as I try to make it through the golden years. The magazine will be a monthly edition with a weekly newsletter sent out with highlights. The plan is not only to have articles on all the current sporting events but features as well.
Check back in the next few weeks and I will have updated information about subscription rates and available advertising for those interested.

This year's State OAP trip was the last of my truck driving days
Barbers Hill held strong against some tough district challenges to take the District 19-4A Academic and Literary Championship. The win for the Eagles is their 13th consecutive title; 3 in Class 4A and 10 in Class 3-A. Team winners and the first 3 place individual winners advance to the regional meet to be held at Sam Houston State University on April 24th and 25th.
