Benbrook pride was on full display this week inside the cafeteria at Benbrook Elementary School.

The new year kicked off with a moment worth pausing for.

A big Benbrook congratulations is in order for Firefighter Alvey, who has officially earned his black shield after completing his probationary year.

Benbrook residents will have a meaningful chance to weigh in this week as the City Council meets on Thursday, January 5, at 7 pm at City Hall, 911 Winscott Road.

As growth continues to press in around Benbrook, residents are asking pointed questions about where things are headed and whether local voices are being heard early enough.

The new year opened with more than fireworks and fresh resolutions. January 1, 2026 marked the official start of a yearlong celebration honoring 250 years of America’s story.

As Benbrook turns the page on another year, many families are setting goals, making plans, and hoping for a fresh start. One local financial professional is encouraging residents to take a simple but often delayed step that can bring real peace of mind.

Illegal dumping is becoming an all-too-familiar problem around Benbrook, and a recent incident near local recycling bins sparked a broader conversation about accountability, courtesy, and how to handle these situations the right way.

As we turn the page on 2025, there is plenty to smile about as we head into 2026. The calendar itself feels like a small gift, with many of the moments we love landing right where we want them.

Benbrook readers are kicking off the new year with a fascinating look behind one of America’s most iconic comedy institutions.
