It seems Robeline is the place to be this weekend.  There will be a lot going on with the annual Robeline Heritage Festival and the activities planned at the old Methodist Church of Robeline. We are all saying a little prayer that the rain will hold off to make all events a huge success. 

Join the Robeline Heritage Society this Friday, Oct. 2 and Saturday, Oct. 3 as they host the 35th annual Robeline Heritage Festival.

Friday starting at 5:30 brings kid’s activities, free food, cake walk, introduction of 2026 Robeline Heritage Festival Queens, politicians speaking, and Christian music to end the night at 9 pm.

Saturday continues with the festivities including breakfast, children’s parade, scavenger hunt, main parade, cake auction, and live music throughout the day. For festival updates follow them on Facebook at The Official Robeline Heritage Festival Page.

Saturday, Oct. 3, join Mike Marbut at the Old Methodist Church in Robeline for tours of the church, raffle, bake sale and membership drive. Doors will open at 10 am. The church, rich in history and unique architecture, was established in 1883. If you are interested in joining the restoration committee, be sure to stop by and talk with him.
