You at the Pole Rally. Local students will join an estimated 3 million students nationwide for the 7 a.m. rally. The rally began in Burleson in 1990 and since then has attracted 16 million students.
Students gather around the flagpole on their campus for prayer and sometimes music and fellowship.
On Wednesday evening, two rallies will be held. The praise band Frail will play for a rally at University Baptist Church from 7-9 p.m. The Rev. Scott Beard, pastor of Emmanuel Fellowship, will speak, and student testimonies will be given. Also on Wednesday, a rally will be held from 7-8 p.m. on the parking lot of Lack's on Buffalo Gap Road. Brian Corley will lead the praise and worship service.
