Eli Escobar interview Chris Browne, Secretary, Board of Directors for Bayou Preservation Association, regarding the Bayou Preservation Association Background, Terry Hershey Bayou Stewardship Awards Luncheon and Honorees. The Bayou Preservation Association’s mission is to Celebrate, Protect and Restore the natural richness of all our 2500 miles of waterways, bayous and streams in the Houston area. Their nonprofit has developed a range of initiatives and efforts to help ensure the protection of greater Houston waterways, including an annual symposium, clean-up projects. Their ongoing programs include stream corridor restoration, bayou citizen science, trash-free bayous, and bayou appreciation, which all support Bayou Preservation Association’s goal of increasing stewardship and opportunities to improve the health of our watersheds, creeks and bayous. It also supports our Education and Outreach goal: To increase understanding of area bayous and creeks and their watersheds. The Bayou Preservation Association’s 11th annual Terry Hershey Bayou Stewardship Awards luncheon is presented virtually on July 14 and will honor Jill Boullion and Terri Thomas as stewards in improving the health of bayous in the greater Houston area.
