Saving Fairfield Lake State Park

If you've followed us for any length of time you know we love our Texas State Parks. Recently we learned that Fairfield Lake State Park was scheduled to close. This broke our hearts as it's one of our favorite parks, the first place I stepped foot on my paddle board and the first place we went camping again after our house fire. If you've heard the story of The Hungry Tent, Fairfield Lake State Park was where that happened.

So I put together this little video of what is going on (from all my research thus far) and what we can do to still save the park. I've joined with the ladies of Houston Women's Hiking and Women Stepping Outside YouTube Channel to get the word out about HB 2332.

We love Fairfield Lake State Park and don't want to see it close, or the other 15 or so state parks who are also on leased land.
