概要

 Good morning, this is Fort Worth Local Pulse for Saturday, February 28th.

We're starting this weekend with some exciting opportunities if you're looking to get out and stay active. Fort Worth Animal Care and Control is hosting adoption events at Walmart today from eleven in the morning until two in the afternoon, and again tomorrow at the same time. They've got shelter and foster dogs ready for their forever homes, so if you've been thinking about adding a furry friend to your family, now's a perfect chance to meet some wonderful companions.

Speaking of summer plans, if you've got teenagers at home looking for work experience and some extra spending money, the City is now recruiting lifeguards for our public pools. The American Red Cross lifeguard certification course is available, and you need to be at least fifteen to take the class, but sixteen to actually work for the city. It's a great way for young people to gain valuable experience while staying active outdoors.

On the education front, Fort Worth ISD continues its state takeover process. The Texas Education Agency has narrowed down the list of candidates who want to serve as board managers to just twenty-one finalists. These are the folks who'll be leading our nearly seventy thousand student district for at least the next two years. They come from all walks of life, including nonprofit leaders, business executives, teachers, and parents, mostly from within our district boundaries. The state education commissioner is expected to announce the final appointments and a new superintendent in the coming weeks.

Over at TCU, the Horned Frogs had a strong showing on the baseball diamond last night. Our number eighteen ranked team dominated New Haven with a fourteen to three victory at Lupton Stadium. They've got another game against New Haven today at two o'clock if you're interested in catching some college baseball action this afternoon. Also making news, our number six women's tennis team fell to number thirty-three TCU in a conference opener yesterday in Fort Worth, losing four to nothing, but they're looking to bounce back.

The city continues its focus on protecting our environment too. There's an ongoing Lights Out initiative encouraging residents and businesses to switch off lights at night to protect migrating birds. It's a simple way we can all contribute to wildlife conservation right here in our community.

As we head into the weekend, conditions should remain pleasant for outdoor activities. Whether you're heading to those adoption events, catching a game, or just enjoying time outside, it's a good day to get out and enjoy Fort Worth.
