Purpose The purpose of the Neches River Festival is to honor our local high school seniors. The festival has been in existence since 1949 and we will be celebrating our 73rd year. This year’s Festival theme of “River Resilience” will celebrate our shared region, rich in history and resources. Beginning in 1949, the Neches River became the focal point for this community to celebrate our high school youth during the Neches River Festival. That tradition continues and each year lifetime memories are made by the Festival participants as they close the chapters of their youth and prepare for exciting futures, The Festival season will also include a River/Service day which highlights important aspects of our community—economic, environmental, social and cultural. Continuing a tradition started a few years ago, Festival participants will “connect and serve” by collecting and donating children’s books to promote reading and literacy in our community. These books will be placed in existing Royal Book Nooks across our city. Two new nooks will be created in honor of NRF 72 and will be installed in new public sites. Neches River Festival provides a cultural, educational and civic opportunity for participating students, and is open to anyone, regardless of ethnicity or financial background. We are proud of our diverse group of student participants each year who represent each high school in Beaumont, Texas.
