McGovern Centennial Gardens

Now in its fifth year,MCGOVERN CENTENNIAL GARDENS has become an indelible part of Houston and Hermann Park. This year, the transition from Bermuda grass in the warmer months to rye grass in the colder months made for a green Centennial Lawn and Mount throughout the entire year. Our gardeners and maintenance team continue their hard work to keep the Gardens a stunning showpiece for the Park. Plus, an ongoing partnership with Stonyfield Organic and Non-Toxic Neighborhoods helped create a pilot program to organically maintain the Lawn and the Mount, a first for Hermann Park. FACILITY RENTALS

The CHERIE FLORES GARDEN PAVILION continues to be a sought-after venue for events of every kind, from weddings to business lunches and everything in between. In FY19 alone, nearly 300 events were held in either the Cherie Flores Garden Pavilion or the Celebration Garden. What’s next? Even more events in FY20, of course, plus the grand opening of another rental venue across the Park with Lott Hall!

Nearly 283 events 63 weddings forty percent total celebrated over goal for revenue Volunteers

At its foundation, Hermann Park Conservancy is an organization that relies on the efforts of volunteers to help maintain and improve Hermann Park. That continues today, with thousands of volunteers giving tens of thousands of hours to keep this Park beautiful. With efforts focused across the 445 acres as well as in the Conservancy offices and at community events, volunteers continue to be a major part of the Conservancy’s work.

As the Conservancy begins its fourth decade of conservation in Hermann Park, reforestation efforts of its iconic tree canopy have become an important and vital focus. From pressure washing the Jones Reflection Pool to restoring the Bayou Parkland Education Ponds in a partnership with the National Environmental Education Foundation to planting new and renewing old trees, no part of Hermann Park is untouched by Conservation and Reforestation.

“I have spent so many hours running out the nervous energy of life here. I ran while I was pregnant with my son until I was five months along and just too big… so we waddled. I have taken so many walks with the man who is now my husband, just the two of us. When we announced our pregnancy, we took our photo in the Park. Right after I had my son, I used to come and walk the park with him in his little stroller and talk to him about all the memories we had already made here. It’s such a beautiful place, close to home, and more meaningful than I could ever explain.”

First and foremost, Hermann Park is a community gathering place. It serves nearly six million visitors a year, from out-of-towners to neighbors of the surrounding areas to suburbanites coming for a day at the Park. The Conservancy is careful to program the Park in such a way that’s equitable and sustainable, but also, of course, fun! A growing list of ongoing events means there’s something on the calendar throughout the year, in addition to our large annual community events, like Kite Festival, Run in the Park, and Park to Port Bike Ride. Want to see the full list? Go to hermannpark.org/calendar. Visitor Services

Once visitors come to Hermann Park, what will they find? Whether it’s a build-your own grilled cheese at Pinewood Cafe, a trip on the iconic Hermann Park Rail- road, a refreshing pedal boat ride on McGovern Lake, or even a free performance from a school group at Lake Plaza, we’re proud to say there’s plenty to discov- er—every single day—at Hermann Park, thanks to the hard work of our Visitor Services team.

“Hermann Park has been a special place that I have been proud to share with many people. It serves as a quiet, meditative space inside the hustle of this city. It is a place where I have, for many years, shared experiences and recalled conversations with loved ones, some of whom are no longer here. At times the park is like walking through fields of memories and when I finish that walk, I feel refreshed and clear of mind. That is why I chose Hermann Park to dedicate a bench in memory of my late partner, after 45 years together.”
