Commissioner R. Jack Cagle released the following statement this afternoon:
“I have been monitoring with great concern the tragic unfolding of events in Washington today. While the right to protest is among our most precious rights, there is no excuse for the lawlessness, vandalism and violence we saw at our nation’s Capitol today, and it must stop. America is a nation of laws, and the law must prevail.”

Planning to welcome the new year with fireworks? Harris County Fire Marshal Laurie Christensen has some important reminders to share to help you stay safe while celebrating. 🎆
It’s fireworks season and I want to remind everyone that fireworks are beautiful, but can be very dangerous. Ringing in the New Year and fireworks go hand and hand. But, ringing in 2021 will probably look a little different. The Harris County Fire Marshal’s Office encourages anyone choosing to use consumer fireworks, to do so safely.

Harris County and CenterPoint Energy Agreement Provides New Options for Trail Development:
Harris County residents could see hundreds of miles of new trails over the next decade after Commissioners Court approved an agreement with CenterPoint Energy last month.
The agreement will make it easier for Harris County to build trails along utility corridors and link parks and trail systems across the county.
So far, most trail development in Precinct 4 has been along waterways and bayous. The agreement opens new possibilities for trail connections.

"A little more than half of Harris County’s residents live in incorporated cities – Houston, Pasadena, Humble, and the like – and rely on those cities for many of their local government services. But more than 2 million others live in unincorporated Harris County, meaning the county is their only local government.
Despite providing these crucial and seemingly high-profile services, county government sometimes slips under the public radar."

Searching for the hidden Christmas pickle in the December calendar is a favorite holiday tradition at Big Stone Lodge. Help us carry on the tradition with this online version! See if you can find the three hidden Christmas pickles, then share with your family and friends to see if they can find them!
🎄The Tradition of the Christmas Pickle 🎄
"To start a tradition that surly will last,
Here’s a short story about a pickle made of glass.
The night before Christmas it’s hung in the tree,
While everyone’s sleeping it’s done secretly.
And on Christmas morning when you arise,
The first one to find it will get a surprise.
A family tradition for all to share.
You’ll look for the pickle year after year."
