Calendar
The White Oak Bayou Association board meetings are held on the first Tuesday of every month (except November) at 7:00 pm. If you would like to join us for our board meetings, please call 765-426-1743 to confirm. From time to time we change our meeting venue.
In November, the Association holds its annual meeting.
Visitation of Deer Park Prairie is by appointment only. Since the prairie will be attended on scheduled workdays, they will be ideal days to visit. Please email Lan.shen@txgcmn.org for appointment on either workdays or any other days.
Please do not park directly in front of our neighbors’ houses – park across the street.
As always on the prairie, wear closed-toe shoes and long pants. For seed collecting, bring clippers if you have them. Also recommended are long-sleeved shirt, hat, water, insect repellent, sunscreen.
