Longtime Belton journalist Peeples dies at age 103


Longtime Belton journalist and historian Berneta Peeples died Sunday at a Belton nursing home at age 103.
A July 29, 2001, Telegram story described how Peeples, then 83, was named the Central Texas Workforce Area’s 2001 Outstanding Older Worker for a seven-county area and honored by the Bell County Commissioners Court.
“Our 27-member board gave her a standing ovation,” said Susan Kamas, executive director for the Central Texas Workforce Development Board.
Peeples began working at the Belton Journal as a “cub reporter” when she was just 13 and on and off continued her reporting duties there into her mid-90s.
Her longevity drew recognition from The Dallas Morning News, which featured her in an article the Telegram picked up on Nov. 7, 2013. ....

Brett Sylvia, acting 1st Cavalry Division commander at Fort Hood, underscored remarks made earlier by Randy Pittenger, president of the Belton Chamber of Commerce, concerning hometown heroes.

Belton July 4th parade set for today despite rain forecast


Rain or shine, the Belton Fourth of July Parade will go on.
The popular annual event, which became a virtual event during the coronavirus crisis last year, returns to the streets of Belton this morning despite a 70 percent chance of rain by the parade’s start.
At 9 a.m., before the parade, a 30-minute patriotic program will be held on the steps of the Bell County Courthouse, 101 E. Central Ave. in Belton.
“This is the traditional way to start the parade,” Randy Pittenger, president of the Belton Area Chamber of Commerce, told the Telegram.
The program will include a color guard from Fort Hood, along with the singing of the National Anthem by the Belton High School Madrigal, the school’s show choir. A Scout troop will lead the reciting of the Pledge of Allegiance and state Rep. Hugh Shine, R-Temple, will give the invocation. ....
