The Texas Trees Foundation aims to create a sustainable and green future for North Texas. They use research-based plans to educate and engage the public about the social, economic, environmental, and health benefits of trees and urban forestry, ultimately improving the region's quality. It is a community comprised of beautiful, well-maintained parks, shady tree-lined streets and boulevards, hiking, biking, and nature trails, and other outdoor amenities which combine to form a living and working environment that enhances the value of its commercial areas and its neighborhoods, and nurtures the health, safety, and quality of life of all its citizens; a community in which its citizens actively participate in building and sustaining its urban forest.
Have you heard of the Museum of the American Railroad in Frisco? It's a fantastic place that celebrates railroads' rich history and future through preservation, education, and fascinating exhibits.

They offer exhibits and programs throughout the year, so there's always something new and exciting to discover.

The Round-Up Saloon is known as "The Home of Good Times and Good People" and has been for many years. It is one of the best country western dance halls in the nation. There are some rumors that this location served as a significant bookmaking operation and was the home of the famed "Old Warsaw Restaurant." Some say that Mrs. Slavick's ghost still haunts the Saloon and loves C&W music. But if you want to know more about these stories, ask your favorite bartender. There are two-stepping and western swing dance lessons every week, along with karaoke, trivia, and drag shows. If you're interested in learning dance, the Round-Up has free dance lessons every Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday nights.
