CUERO, Tx — The DeWitt County Republican Party held its “Celebrate America: 250 Years of Freedom – Rockin’ with the King!” event on Saturday, June 27, 2026, as part of a broader Republican push to energize local supporters ahead of America’s 250th anniversary. The gathering brought out Republican voters, donors, and community members to the Cuero VFW for an evening of entertainment and fundraising.
Award‑winning Elvis tribute artist Vince King performed live, delivering a series of classic Elvis hits that energized the crowd. His performance, complete with multiple costume changes and stage theatrics, served as the centerpiece of the evening’s program.
The event included both silent and live auctions, which supporters participated in to raise funds for the party’s ongoing local efforts. Catering was provided by Roy Kuester, and the Cuero VFW operated the bar throughout the night.
Reserved tables for eight were sold for $1,000, while individual open‑seating tickets were available for $50. Supporters secured tickets in advance by phone or email.
The event was paid for by the DeWitt County Republican Party.
