      Post, Texas is a small town which has a very tight-knit community. Majority of the people within Post know each other and respect one another greatly. The overall community of Post is very family friendly and most people that leave Post come back. It is a town that people love due to the homey feeling it has. The schools within Post have high success rates and allow students to achieve great things after graduating. Overall, Post is a great community in which I am happy to be apart of.

      I Have been there my whole life. This is my hometown is where I will graduate from, It is where I’ve played sports all my life, it is just that one town people can’t seem to get away from. Although this year for Post, it has been a highlight for the entire town. This year, history was made in sports due to outstanding work and dedication put in by my teammates, schoolmates, and coaches. My overall experience with Post has been an experience of a lifetime.
      I enjoy the small town atmosphere because you know almost everyone in the town. I do not like that there is no fun activities in the town such as bowling or roller skating.
