Destination Downtown is back again THIS Saturday, October 24th! 🎶🍻🚎

LNK TXK is putting on one BIG block party featuring everything we love about Downtown Texarkana, USA! You're invited to come out, support local businesses, enjoy some great music, and celebrate with us.

🚎 Our Downtown Trolley will also be making the rounds, shuttling attendees from one side of downtown to the other 🤙

Reminder: To keep the trolley clean and comfortable for everyone, smoking/vaping, food, and alcohol are not permitted on board. Non-alcoholic beverages are allowed only in secure, spill-resistant containers with a screw-on or locking lid.

We had some VERY handsome visitors in Downtown TXK this past weekend! 🐾🐶

The Bowie County Sheriff's Office Search & Rescue Team hosted a training event that brought around 45 dogs and their handlers to Texarkana to practice their trailing and tracking skills!

SAR teams from across the ArkLaTex and as far away as Iowa, Mississippi and Alabama made the trip to Texarkana for a weekend of training. In addition to downtown, teams put their skills to the test at Bringle Lake Park and Wright Patman Lake.

We love seeing our downtown used in new ways and welcoming visitors from across the country! We hope everyone enjoyed their time in Texarkana, and we thank these dedicated teams and their four-legged partners for the important work they do to help keep communities safe! 🐕❤️

Lookie what’s coming to Downtown TXK 👀💗

Split Vending is a product of our local Pitch It Texarkana competition, which supports local entrepreneurs and gives bright ideas from right here in Texarkana a chance to grow! 💡🏆 Chloe and Amber’s vision for a new way to bring Texarkana souvenirs and merch to our community and visitors earned them first place and $10,000 to help bring their idea to life!

You may have already seen Split Vending at local events like Picklefest and the Texarkana Airshow, selling shirts, hats, koozies and more. Their love for Texarkana shows in everything they do, and we’re so excited to see that passion put to work right here in the heart of downtown. ❤️

Their new vending machine was made possible by Ledwell & Sons, and is located just outside Los Tacos and Joe’s Italian Bistro near Courthouse Square, right across from the U.S. Courthouse & Post Office and our Stateline photo op!

Soon, visitors will be able to grab a little piece of TXK to take home with them to help mark the memories they made while exploring Downtown Texarkana. 🛍️✨
