The Jasper County Go Texan committee is devoted to benefiting youth and supporting education. Through our association and participation with the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo (HLSR), area seniors are granted scholarships each year. The program continues to grow, and many activities have been added. These include promoting Rodeo Houston, competing in the World Championship BBQ Contest prior to the rodeo, as well as quilt and scrapbook contests. We also participate in activities with surrounding counties. Through Jasper County’s participation in the Area Go Texan program, scholarships are earned for local youths. For our efforts in 2021, several Jasper County students were awarded a total of $35,000 in college scholarships. Those funds came from both HLSR and from Jasper County Go Texan locally.
