Anthony, Texas Celebrates Leap Year Day

What are you doing for Leap Year Day? Well, in Anthony, Texas, you can celebrate February 29th with the Worldwide Leap Year Festival. The event continues all the way through March 2nd (hey, when a day only comes around every four years, you have to make the most of it!) Anthony is known as the Leap Year Capital of the World. Friday's events include a wine tasting and parade; on Saturday, look for a hot air balloon lift-off, a car show, 5K run and more. Anthony, Texas and Anthony, New Mexico sit right on the state border between El Paso and Las Cruces.
