F.O.R. San Bernard members-volunteers

Vance and Brenda Verbeck

We moved to the wonderful San Bernard River, 4 ½ years ago. Every day we come home from work, it is like being at our own personal resort. We wonder why we didn’t do this sooner. Prior to moving on the San Bernard, we lived in Matagorda County for 25 years.

We have 3 boys, ages 23, 24 and 27. Two of our sons live in Lake Jackson and stop by on Sunday afternoons to enjoy the river and something fresh off the grill. Our oldest son lives in San Diego.

Vance

Served in U.S. Naval Submarine Service

Currently working at South Texas Project, just completed 30 years. Looking forward to spending retirement years on the river in the near future.

Brenda

Also works at South Texas Project, going on 20 years.

Spare time is taken up with college classes.

We both love to travel, especially to the Caribbean, where we enjoy scuba diving. We are both Master Diver certified. We have enjoyed the underwater beauty of Cozumel, Jamaica, Bahamas, Bimini, Grand Cayman, Cayman Brac, Roatan, Hawaii, Florida, and a National Marine Park sanctuary about 100 miles south of Freeport known as the Flower Gardens/Stetson Bank.

We enjoy motorcycle touring, and have been to the top of Pikes Peak. The views, especially from a motorcycle, were amazing (however, Brenda says she will never do that again).

We have participated in all the river clean-ups.  We helped with the first River Raiser fund raiser by serving food, and have enjoyed as many breakfasts as our schedule allows (work interferes with everything). We also participated in the first Can You Dig It?.

If we haven’t met you yet, we would love to. If you see the Margarita machine going, stop by and join us. It’s 5-O'clock somewhere !

See you at breakfast!
