SPORTS + OUTDOORS

Pearland Parks & Recreation presents Families & Flashlights,  Saturday, March 12 at 3pm through Sunday, March 13, at 10am.  LOCATION: Independence Park.

Want to go camping with your family but are unsure of what to bring, what to do, and where to go? Bring the entire family for an educational camping session and actually spend the night in Independence Park! Learn tent setup, fishing basics and how to leave no trace behind.

Advance registration required. Participants will receive a list of supplies to bring. Fee structure is based on a family of four, but bring an additional camper for nominal fee! Supper and breakfast are included. Don’t have a tent? Rent one from us!
