there with all that green.
We know it’s a holiday for
Yeah. Yeah. Just enough.
Thank you. We are continuing to
help you have the best summer
ever. Our new series the best
Summer Ever Bucket List.
Challenge.
>> Aims to fill your summer
with fun and affordable things
to do with your family this
morning. We’re going to help
you find things to check off
your list. I have that list
right here. It is long, but
we’re going to get to it.
With me now is Elizabeth Evans
with that visit The Woodlands.
Thank you so much for coming
in on this holiday. We do
appreciate your time. Of
course, this is so awesome.
You know, it’s this is a lot
of fun. This is awesome.
It looks like summer outside.
It feels like summer outside.
>> And I know you have some
things on your list that will
provide relief with these hot
temperatures. Yes, you know, we
want people to be able to enjoy
the outdoors. And we know we
like to say in The Woodlands,
it’s a little bit cooler.
You know, we have all those
trees up. There is a little
more breathing of the. We’ve
got the waterway.
>> So when you’re planning that
summer adventure coming up from
Houston, it’s a pretty short
drive. But once you get there,
you really feel like you’re in
an oasis in the entire lack.
I always enjoy my time up
there. What are some of the
things that we have on your
bucket list on some of the
bucket list items? I know that
we always like to encourage
people to go along The
Woodlands Waterway, our bench
tour is one of the largest
collections of outdoor art in
the country. So you can take
our scavenger hunt and the
trail will take you all along
the waterway to see 30
different pieces of outdoor
art. You can take The Woodlands
Trolley and that really does
kind of help you move along.
It’s air conditioned. So as
you have kind of done added
bonus and added bonus, you get
a little relief from the heat.
And so that’s one of the best
ways to do it. One of the
second ways is to get onto the
water. You can water activities
on The Waterway. You can do
a kayak ride a swan boat.
You can do this one boat at
The Woodlands Waterway as well
as the mall. And that’s great
for families to come on.
You can have 4 or 5 people on
it. And of course, you can do
a paddleboard, a kayak as well
as a water bike, which is one
of the favorite things I’ve
done. You know, you’re you’re
on the water and you’re kind of
move into your exercise, right,
that you’re feeling the breeze
and you kind of you know, that
it’s summertime soaking in the
Rays. Yeah, it’s a lot of fun.
And I know for parents to after
you can enjoy a cold one at
that many breweries and
restaurants that.
>> The Woodlands offer. Yes,
our waterway dining is one of
the most favorite things that
people come in. And do you know
you’re really just kind of
warning that view. So if you’re
in Hughes Landing with
restaurant row, there you can
grab a beverage and go out to
waterway nights which is at
waterway. I’m right there.
The waterway as well as he was
landing. They’ve got a rock the
row all summer with our live
music to so many people when
they are introduced to The
Woodlands. It’s the the Cynthia
Woods, Mitchell Pavilion,
getting coming from one of
these big shows concerts.
And you are, you know, you’re
there for a reason. We really
want people to know that you
can come back and make it a
weekend. They like to say that
the billion that rock pays for
buck. So those are big show
tonight. Chris Stapleton
staying Shania Twain, all of
these big shows that are coming
across the summer. But then we
also have the Star Spangled
Salute, which is July 3rd,
which is a great way to get
your family to see a Houston
Symphony show and then very
soon, right after is certain to
La Symphony with the I love it
a certain so late. The minutes
going to have acrobats and
jugglers and contortionist
really to kind of make that
experience special for the
whole family its lawn seating
is free. If you want to come in
and sit, there are there are
paid seats underneath the tent.
But we really do want to
encourage and remind people
about that pavilion bag policy,
which is the same across that,
you know, any live nation venue
or any of these big the new
stadium policy to make sure you
come in without approved bag.
So you’re not making the walk
back to that to the carnage,
to drop your things off.
But that’s one of our favorite
activities that people really
know. The Woodlands for the
pavilion. That’s really that’s
a good tip to remember to keep
in mind if you’re planning to
do any of these You mentioned
so many great things.
Elizabeth, are there any of
those things that you consider
to be like a hidden gem or is
that another list? Yeah, that’s
definitely another list visit.
The Woodlands Dot Com is a
great place to check that out.
But Texas Treeventures may be
something that’s a little more
new to the audience. It’s a
3 story. Aerial ropes course
adventure course at Rob Fleming
Park and they have just added
dozens of new Have you done it
before? It’s a great time to
come back and see it again.
But it’s an adventure by
choice. So you can decide if
you want to go all the way to
the top. If you want to stay
lower at the bottom. But that’s
The Woodlands Parks and
Recreation Department. They do
an excellent job with these
outdoor events and celebrations
are red, hot and blue festival
is going to be July 4th.
If you want to come in for the
fireworks extravaganza, they’re
all across town and we really
are excited to have visitors
come in to see it for the first
time or come back year after
year. You know, you’re planting
seeds as you’re him like, you
know, this would be a really
field trip. We should take the
show on the Raybin if you’re
listening time love that.
I did. Yeah. I love that idea.
