Go Texan Day has been a Texas tradition since the 1950’s and is celebrated in Pearland each year the Friday before the rodeo parade. Pearlanders roundup their boots and big hats to wear to work and school. For some parents, it’s the perfect day to get the kiddos all dolled up as a cowboy or cowgirl. It makes for some adorable photos. So, if you take a photo, share it to one of our social media pages using #iheartpearland.

Wetlands are a vanishing but important part of the Texas Coastal Plains where we live. More than half the bird species in North America depend on wetlands for some part of their life cycles. Wetlands have been called the “Earth’s kidneys” because they naturally filter and break down pollutants through the plants and microbes that live in them. Restoring and creating freshwater wetlands in our area will improve water quality, natural habitat for wildlife and green space for people to enjoy. The City of Pearland has the only floating wetlands in the country located outside of the Stella Roberts Recycling Center. Stop by and check them out.

PEARLAND 2018 Calendar and Annual Report NOVEMBER 2018

Veterans Day originated as “Armistice Day” on Nov. 11, 1919, the first anniversary of the end of World War I. Congress passed a resolution in 1926 for an annual observance, and Nov. 11 became a national holiday beginning in 1938. Unlike Memorial Day, pays tribute to all American veterans - living or dead - but especially gives thanks to living veterans who served their country honorably during war or peacetime.
