February 20 Clear Creek Clean Up Clear Lake Area

February 20 Clear Creek Clean Up Clear Lake Area

The main waterway of Clear Creek provides recreational opportunities such as fishing, boating, birding, and wildlife observation. In the lower reaches of the Creek, the estuarine habitats serve as nurseries for species such as menhaden, shrimp, and blue crab. Throughout the watershed, migratory birds and Gulf Coast waterfowl find fertile feeding grounds. Healthy estuaries support the success of commercial and recreational fishing within Galveston Bay, one of our nations most productive bays for shrimp and oyster.

Listen in to Talk of the Bay as Rex Ward, the Keeper of the Creek, and Lloyd Thornton tell us what the status is of Clear Creek for this years cleanup. 

Every weekend in January and February Rex Ward with the help of his voluntary board of directors organize grassroots volunteers and begin cleaning the creek from Hwy 2351 to Galveston Bay. The Clear Creek Clean Up is the culminating event scheduled this Saturday. To volunteer check out their website www.ClearCreekCleanup.org or call 281-910-8774

March 11 Rodeo Bus Trip Clear Lake

The rodeo was in full swing and 500 bay area party people headed to the show on 10 buses hosted by the NASA, Clear Creek, Friendswood Rodeo Committee. The fun started out at Hooters where wings and beer were flowing like water. Around 5:30 people were loaded on the buses and we headed to Reliant Center to see Brad Paisley, in concert. Between the great music, the rodeo action and the fun happening in the Chute Club everyone had a great time.

Listen in to Talk of the Bay as we catch up with Kimberly Fleming, as she takes her 5th trip with us on this crazy bus ride.
And remember, what happens on the rodeo bus.stays on the rodeo bus!

The Fab 5 Rock The Dock Kemah

Posted on March 15th, 2010 by admin in Galveston restaurants

Part of the Summer Concert series at the Kemah Boardwalk, Texas.

http://www.myspace.com/thefab5houston

The Fab 5 are as good as it gets when it comes to Beatles and ’60s’ – 70s tribute Bands IMHO – they opened for the classic Rock band America.

The Kemah Boardwalk’s free open-air concerts make it a place worth visiting every Thursday for music lovers and an overall outstanding Amusement venue. Great Restaurants like Landry’s Seafood House and Saltgrass Steakhouse, Thrill Rides like the all-wood Boardwalk Bullet and the Boardwalk Beast Boatride are all now an institution in the Houston Scene.
