A summary of this past week’s stories:

Just in time for Labor Day weekend, two Zoo locales are refreshed. First, everyone’s favorites — the gibbons and lemurs are back out on display on their island near the front of the zoo. Next, the Butterfly Garden in the Brazos River exhibit area has been refreshed and updated.

Installation of the new bridge lights on the I-35 frontage road is nearly complete and is expected to be operational by Baylor Football’s first home game.
