"In Houston, we are blessed with such a fine parks system that we often take for granted the hard work and dedication that it takes to create and improve our parks. It has been my privilege to work with the Houston Parks Board and its donors to provide funding needed to make improvements to existing parks and to acquire additional park land."

S. Reed Morian,

Past Chairman of the Board
