✨ WE BROKE GROUND!!! ✨

Childress Spark officially broke ground on the restoration of the Historic Fair Park Amphitheater, our very first community project.
Originally built in 1937 by the National Youth Administration, this space has long been a gathering place for Childress. Today marks the beginning of honoring that legacy while upgrading it for future generations, with updated seating, a new covered stage, and food truck hookups to expand what’s possible.
This project is about more than restoring a structure. It’s about restoring connection.
Soon this amphitheater will host concerts, worship gatherings, movie nights, festivals, local theater productions, and community celebrations and will also be available for private events.
We are deeply grateful to our major donors, community donors, our local partners, the City of Childress, Childress Municipal Development District, Childress Downtown Historical Association and the many residents who believe in this vision. A special thank you to Bocanegra BBQ for helping us celebrate today’s milestone.
The dirt has officially been turned.
The spark is lit. ⚡️
Let’s come together and watch it grow.
