Baytown's SQUARE takes ROOT

By Lana Donath [email protected]

Despite just opening in time for the Christmas Parade in December, 2015, Town Square in the 200 block of West Texas Avenue is already becoming a central fixture in Baytown Life. For December, the fountain becomes the city Christmas tree surrounded by an ice skating rink open each evening. Town Square is also home to activities for all ages, many sponsored by the Parks and Recreation Department and others sponsored by Texas Avenue Sports Clubs and Organizations merchants, community organizations or individuals. Even when there's no event underway, the square Youth is gaining popularity as a place to gather around the fountain, take advantage of the free wi-fi or just en- Baytown Saints Soccer joy a day or evening of people-watching.
