A New Drive-In Theatre Is Coming To McKinney

Movie night is getting a little dose of nostalgia in McKinney. Instead of finding a seat in a dark theater, moviegoers can settle into lawn chairs, gather around their cars and watch a film beneath the Texas sky at Wayback Drive-In, a new outdoor movie theater opening this November. Located at Wayback Barn, 3964 County Road 168, the drive-in is the latest addition to the four-acre outdoor entertainment destination in north McKinney. A grand opening is scheduled for Nov. 6-8. It is the only drive-in movie theater in McKinney and one of the few still operating in North Texas. Guests who purchase movie tickets also receive admission to Wayback Barn, where they can arrive early to play yard games, take on the mini-golf course or grab something to eat and drink before the show. "We wanted to give families a reason to slow down, share a meaningful experience, and turn movie night back into an outdoor social event," said owner Laura O'Dowd. More Than A Movie There is plenty to do before the opening credits roll. The property features a collection of outdoor games, including gaga ball, tetherball, nine square, horseshoes, volleyball, cornhole, ping-pong, foosball, bocce ball and giant Jenga.

Collin County turns out to vote for historic results

This year’s mid-term elections have brought record turnout to Texas and Collin County. The spotlight is on Dallas suburbs like Plano, whose changing demographics and growing populations are making these cities a bellwether for the region. Over 9.5 million votes were cast across the states for a historic upset, placing Democratic candidates throughout the state’s highest elected offices in decades. This was the first time that Collin County went to a Democratic Senate candidate since 1970. Democratic candidates James Talarico, Gina Hinojosa, Vikki Goodwin and others all won their raises. Democrats also made major gains in the US House and Senate, securing a majority. Republicans have maintained a majority in the Texas Senate, but may be at risk of losing the State House race, which has not yet been called. Local Republican incumbent Congressional Representatives like Keith Self held on to their seats in single digit victories. Dallas area attorney Maeghan Whitehead signed up to act as a nonpartisan poll monitor for the Election Protection Coalition and was sent to the Harrington Library in Plano to ensure an orderly and accessible election. Her job for the day included keeping signs and picketers at least 100 feet from the voting site,

Allen, Frisco ISD sport state-ranked boys basketball teams to begin 2026-27 season

Nov. 13 marks the first day of non-district games for UIL boys basketball programs, officially putting the 2026-27 season in full swing. Last season saw programs like Frisco Heritage and Little Elm make history by winning the first state championships in their respective histories. Both teams graduated sizable senior classes, while other area squads look to make their own push towards hoisting a UIL title by season’s end. Several of those programs have generated some early buzz for 2026-27 as part of the Texas Association of Basketball Coaches' preseason state rankings. Class 6A 1. Allen Ranked atop 6A to begin the season, the Eagles are coming off a 24-7 campaign that produced a District 6-6A championship and an appearance in the regional finals. Allen has advanced at least three rounds deep in the playoffs each of the past three seasons, including a state semifinal run in 2025, and it’ll navigate its 2026-27 campaign with four of its top six scorers from last season back in the fold. The Eagles graduated the all-state production and leadership of guard Nehemiah Lawrence and will look players like all-region guard and senior Cadarian Urune-Williams, a Lamar commit, to help pick up that slack.
