“Tiger Creek is a sanctuary for Tigers. They have beautiful cats!!Due to Covid it closed to public visitors. Might call and check status with staff. Great place .. great people!”
“I just recently learned of Hand Up Network. If you aren’t familiar, you should look them up and if you’re in the thrift shoppers club then you should go see if they have something for you! The staff and workers were all very helpful and kind. As of April 2025 there is no air conditioning in the thrift shoppers club so be mindful of that if shopping in the afternoon”
“Beautiful and helpful staff. They overstepped a tiny bit but they were still super helpful in helping me get my glasses. The place is nice and organized and the waiting room has a nice area for your children to play and its not expensive at all. Such a good place and such great staff. Not only that but the staff works great with kids and even adults. I definitely recommend.”
“The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The store is clean and organized, not like other places I have been to. I love this location. It has more of a department store feel to it. Will definitely itely. E back”
“I had to stay at their shelter and it was very clean, friendly, safe, and serves tasty food.
Only issue is that you have to leave at 8 am and can not return until after 4 pm. You have to take your property with you everywhere you go.”
“The staff was professional and welcoming while demonstrating a genuine interest in the children.The experience was not traumatizing. The environment was friendly and caring. The children were relieved and glad they had the opportunity to visit with the staff.I intend to check into other services offered by the center. Thank you to all those who made the experience positive.Mary Patterson Alford”
“The most awesome place!!!. It isn't just a place to dump your stuff. Mission services( around the side of building) offers many services to help individuals find and keep employment. They offer extensive training! Help support their mission!”
“One can always find a great deal here!UPDATE..5/5/2024I know this is for a wonderful cause, but yikes...the prices have gone up so much! It's hard to pay so much for used stuff.”
“I just want to say how incredibly impressed and thankful I am for the summer camp ( Mentoring Alliance at 3 LAKES) my son attended this year. From start to finish, it was such a positive and uplifting experience! The energy, organization, and passion from the staff was truly unmatched. Every day my son came home with a smile on his face, full of stories and excitement from all the fun and learning he had.
What stood out the most to me was the group of kids attending the camp. They were kind, respectful, welcoming, and full of team spirit. It was beautiful to see such a great group of young people supporting each other and making sure everyone felt included. My son made new friends, grew more confident, and built memories that I know will stick with him for a lifetime.
Thank you to the counselors, staff, and every camper who made this summer one to remember. You all are truly something special! We can’t wait to come back next year! ??”
“Worked with the East Texas Crisis Center (ETCC) when it was an outreach. Back then, ETCC functioned primarily through volunteers recruited from University of Texas at Tyler (UT/T). Remember Dawn Knowles-Franks, Johnnie Patrick, Carol Mantooth, and Bob Geffner (UT/T) as integral. Glad to see it continues to work with excellence through now executive director Lana Peacock. Very Good Work.”
“I love shopping at this store, from the time you walk through the door until you leave their is always someone available to assist you with anything. Everyone is always friendly and smiling. I have to say that the managers of this establishment are doing a wonderful job.”
“Its such a magical place we go every year to see christmas lights and take wonderful pictures we hit ot tonight as they first lit up lights we go through the names each yeartruly a special place”
