The City of Bandera has launched TextMyGov, a new text messaging service designed to keep residents and visitors informed with timely and relevant information directly affecting the community. This service is provided at no charge to users.
This new texting service allows the city to send text notifications to residents about important updates and local events. For those who want to receive city-wide notifications, they may opt-in to stay notified about city functions such as Utility Services, Upcoming Events, Public Safety Alerts, and General Announcements.
To sign up, text “BANDERA” to the number 91896. After sending the initial keyword, you will be asked to complete the opt-in process by responding with “YES.” Additionally, there are widgets on the city website, on both the Marshal’s Page: Bandera City Marshal and the EDC page: Bandera EDC, where you can learn more about the program.
Also, some event specific text notification groups are available. Text the following keywords to the number 91896 to opt-in.
Text “COWBOY CAPITAL” to 91896 for local event notifications only.
Text “COWBOY MARDI GRAS” to 91896 for Cowboy Mardi Gras notifications.
Text “ECLIPSE” to 91896 for event notifications before, during, and after the eclipse.
