Yesterday was a sweet day at Union General Hospital! 🍉 We enjoyed a visit from Miss Louisiana Watermelon Festival, Geneviève Wetzel, and Miss Louisiana Watermelon Festival’s Teen, Julia Cox. They arrived just in time to grab a slice of one of the watermelons auctioned at the Watermelon Festival auction!

Union General Hospital is proud to be the title sponsor of the Watermelon Festival and honored to help keep this great community tradition alive.

Union General Hospital was honored to join the community in recognizing Dr. Kathy Stockton's retirement and welcoming Karen Ray as the new Superintendent of Union Parish Schools.

As valued community partners, Union Parish Schools and Union General Hospital share a commitment to improving the lives of the families we serve. We are grateful for Dr. Stockton's years of dedicated leadership, service, and commitment to education, and we wish her and her family all the best as she begins this new chapter.

We also extend a warm welcome to Karen Ray as she assumes this important leadership role. We wish her continued success and look forward to working together to serve the students, families, and communities of Union Parish.

Last night at our It's a Girl Thing meeting, we had an important conversation about staying safe online. The girls learned the dangers of sexting, how to identify warning signs of online predators, and make smart, confident choices when using social media and other digital platforms.

We are so appreciative to Lieutenant Marcie Cooper from the Union Parish Sheriff's Office for sharing valuable information and helping equip our girls with the knowledge they need to stay safe online!

By building awareness and encouraging open conversations, we're helping empower young women to protect themselves, trust their instincts, and know what to do if faced with a situation where something doesn't feel right.

And thank you to Mamoo's Market and Catering for the delicious meal!

What an incredible weekend at the 2026 Watermelon Festival!

Union General Hospital was honored to serve as the Title Sponsor of this year's Watermelon Festival, proudly organized by the Farmerville Jaycees. It was a privilege to support this outstanding community tradition and celebrate alongside so many friends, neighbors, and visitors.
Throughout the weekend, our team enjoyed participating in the Watermelon Festival Parade, taking part in the exciting Watermelon Auction, and welcoming hundreds of visitors to our booth. One of the highlights was watching children and adults alike spin our prize wheel for a chance to win fun prizes while visiting with our staff.

From the vendors and delicious food to the live entertainment, street dance, family activities, and, of course, plenty of watermelon, the festival was a wonderful celebration of our community.

A special thank you to the Farmerville Jaycees for the countless hours of planning and hard work that made this year's festival such a tremendous success. We are grateful to everyone who stopped by our booth and look forward to continuing to serve and support our community.
