Speaker will be Suzanne Simpson, Land Stewardship Director for the Bayou Land Conservancy 

She will talk about “Preserving Houston’s Little Thicket”.   The ecology of the Gulf Coastal Plain has been historically undervalued, but recently this area has been recognized as a global biodiversity hotspot.  This talk will cover WHY the Gulf Coastal Plain is important, WHAT is being done to conserve it, and HOW individuals can support these efforts.


Registration is highly recommended  for this meeting. This will allow us to give the restaurant a better estimate of attendance. The restaurant can then better accommodate us with the room arrangement and sufficient servers. Be sure to register all family members and guest (companions).
