Dawg665 Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 Great job Clarksville!! This will not be the last W for the year either. You guys are just getting started and foresee a playoff run for y'all! Keep it up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRAHMLAND Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 Happy for Cville. I hope team turns around. Heck I hope town turns around. Love the square. It'd be awesome with some renovations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
upullinmychain Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 I can remember having a ice-cream float at the drugstore fountain when I was a kid.. The first Walmart they put in Clarksville put a serious hurt on the square. My granddaddy would take us kids to get haircuts around behind the other pharmacy (blackmans) I believe.. Man the memories of the square and all.. Long time ago, in a time that doesn't exist anymore.. Js 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time has passed our little town by. I hate it. Still would love to retire out Dimple way. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Js I believe the Wal-Mart in Clarksville, Texas, one of the first stores in Texas, closed in 2007 because of sagging sales. Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Yep, they built the first one, had building issues about ten years later, built another one about a half mile up the road.. Town economy collapsed, there are a few people you can blame that on, then wally world pulled out.. You could hear the suction when they left..

OhioState Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Clarksville should win this district. Off to a good start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blesseddaily Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Kind of off subject but was there a large industry that left town or just people moved on or what happened? First time I went there (about 12 years ago) I couldn't believe how large the "town" area was and they were just 1A (before UIL added an A) heck most of the schools in our district did good to have a dollar store!!

OhioState Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 There have been more than one factory close down but those were actually years ago. The population of the town really hasn't dropped like the school enrollment. There are many kids with Clarksville addresses attending Detroit, Rivercrest, and Avery. Mostly Detroit though.

BRAHMLAND Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 Yeah we went to Cville a few years back to play. As we came into the town I seen the population sign and said to my wife how the hell are they 2A? Ask security guard same question when we walked in. He said same thing you just did. That school is huge. Do they close parts off to keep utilities down. Sad as hell to me and I'm not even from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They no longer use the elementary school that i attended as a kid, the old middle school is now used as the elementary and all middle and high school students are at the high school.

His open recruiting of Clarksville athletes is legendary. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
