Editing Cuero, Texas (section)

==Arts and culture==
Turkey Fest is a local festival during which the townsfolk compete with people at various turkey-centric events. The competitions revolve around the turkeys each town raises and in which each takes immense pride. The events are the prettiest turkey contest, turkey toss, turkey trot, and turkey race. Unlike most [[turkey trot]]s, where humans do the racing, in Cuero, the "turkey trot" involves racing actual turkeys.

In 1972, [[Charles Kuralt]] did an "On the Road" report for CBS News from Cuero, where he did his own turkey call.

Christmas in Cuero began in 2000 with the lighting of the gazebo in Cuero Municipal Park. It has grown to over 100 displays of Victorian and Western scenes, 12-car trains, gingerbread houses, and other scenes. A live [[nativity scene]] is sponsored by a church in Cuero. Two of the scenes were vandalized by two teens in November 2009. The park was still open to the public, excluding the two damaged scenes. The teens arrested for the crime had their bonds set at $150,000, in part because of the effect the crime had on the community.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.victoriaadvocate.com/news/2009/nov/18/sl_cuero_arrests_111909_74681/?counties|title=Two teens arrested for Cuero Christmas in the Park vandalism - Victoria Advocate|access-date=8 September 2017}}</ref>
