Prospects and Members of the
Texas Chapter
of the ASBPA:
Final
plans are being made for the July 12 meeting in Surfside
at Stahlman Park.
Stahlman
Park
is located at
2211 Blue Water Highway (CR
257). The directions to Stahlman
Park, a facility that
is enclosed and can hold 100-200 people, is as follows
so bring them on!!
-
Stahlman
Park
can be reached from
Galveston by
going across the San Luis Pass Bridge on FM 3005 to
Surfside, approximately 12 miles after the toll
bridge. It is located on the south side - there is
a sign on the highway for Stahlman Park.
-
Stahlman
Park
can be reached from
Houston by coming down Highway 288 and then
taking SH 332 East out of
Lake Jackson. Cross over the
bridge to Surfside and at the light, turn left onto
the
Bluewater Highway and go
approximately 1.5 miles on the right.
-
Stahlman Park
can be reached from Highway 36 by going through
Freeport and turning left on FM 523 and then a right
on SH 332E and going over the bridge to Surfside,
turn left onto the Bluewater Highway and go
approximately 1.5 miles on the right.
The
Texas Chapter meeting will begin at 1:00 PM but we have
been invited to attend the Brazoria County Shoreline
Restoration Task Force meeting, which starts at 11:00
PM. Michael Johns, Freeport LNG Coordinator, will speak
in regard to the Quintana Nourishment Project by
Freeport LNG. An itinerary Brazoria County task Force meeting will be
available shortly.
There
will be a luncheon at the meeting at noon so please
let me know if you plan to attend.
One of
the key topics will be the upcoming 80th Texas
Legislative Session. Besides funding CEPRA, we need to
determine the coastal issues and concerns the 18 coastal
counties would like the Texas Chapter to address and
support during the Session. This will be an important
ingredient for the Legislative Committee to handle.
I hope
all committees are able to meet before the July 12
meeting to give a report at the meeting.
An
itinerary will be forthcoming and in the interim please
let me know if you would like any other matters to be
discussed at the meeting.
Jerry
Mohn, President
TX Chapter of the ABSPA
