Annual Whoop-T-Do in downtown Iowa Park, Texas
September is that time of the year that brings back the smell of new jeans, backpacks and leather footballs to the senses of Iowa Parkans and on Saturday, September 18th those aromas were mixed with the smell of sausage-on-a-stick, funnel cakes and many other wonderful items as the community reveled in the return of Iowa Park High School alumni for the 39th annual Whoop-T-Do celebration. The carnival like atmosphere, held in conjunction with the School District’s homecoming, included lots of food booths, plenty of games, the sale of numerous novelty items and much more along with special events such as a live turtle race and an “Iowa Park’s Got Talent” competition that provided cash prizes to the winners. The event began at 8:30 a.m. and conclude at 3:00 p.m. and was held in downtown Iowa Park located along the 100 and 200 blocks of North Wall and along East and West Cash Streets.
