Parker County Sheriff's Posse Puts Texas Twist on Social Distancing

NBCUniversal, Inc.

Something so very Texas happened in Weatherford to connect with some of the most vulnerable in the coronavirus pandemic.

The Parker County Sheriff's Posse rode on horseback saying hello to residents in nursing homes.

Video from Misty Browning, associate publisher at Parker County Today Magazine, shows a long line of horses and cars on parade outside Windsor Senior Living and Memory Care on Thursday, April 16.

The hello by horseback was such a hit, they did it again Friday and even bigger than before.

The Parker County Sherif’s Posse led the parade to nursing homes and senior centers in Weatherford. Other first responders followed in a truly Texas experience.

The sheriff's posse along with the Weatherford police and fire departments visited seven senior centers and nursing homes last Friday morning.

It's a Texas twist on the parades we're seeing in these days of social distancing.
