Don’t let your heart stay two sizes too small—come gather with us in downtown Whitney, Texas for the 17th Annual Grinch Festival & Parade! The Who’s will be cheering, the lights will be glowing, and at 6:00 PM sharp, our very own Lake Whitney State Park Christmas float will be rolling down the street—Grinchy spirit and all!

It's the most Wonderful Time of the year at Lake Whitney State Park. Come stay in the Horseshoe Loop and decorate your campsite to hopefully be voted the best of 2025! The votes will be placed by the visitors that get FREE entry to drive through our park from 6 to 8 pm.

Join Park Ranger Lory on the Two Bridges Trail for a 1½-hour mindful walk, meditation moments, and reflective pauses. Choose a Zenful question or thought to guide your reflections as we share insights, breathe deeply, and welcome clarity, calm, and new happiness endeavors for 2026.
