County celebrates impact of Bridges

Fifty years of heart and voluntarism.

That’s the legacy of Mary Bridges, a local treasure in the Pilot Point community and across the state, who was recognized for her 50 years of service in 4-H.

“I've just been so fortunate to have touched so many lives, so many parents that have allowed me to help their children and guide and direct them, and gain their confidence,” Bridges said. “A lot of times, children won't talk, and you can tell I talk.”
