The Nature Discovery Center is a favorite Bellaire establishment, resulting from a grass-roots effort back in 1979, when the Friends of Bellaire Parks raised funds for the acquisition of a million dollar 3.75-acre Henshaw estate, to create Russ Pitman Park. Whether you’re a Bellaire or Houston area resident, new in town, or visiting the area - plan a trip to the Center and to Russ Pitman Park. The Nature Discovery Center is located in Russ Pitman Park at 7112 Newcastle, Bellaire, Texas, just inside the West 610 Loop, between Bellaire Blvd and Evergreen. You can explore the Discovery Rooms and park grounds on your own or plan to attend an upcoming event including:

The Horn PTO is holding a Gala and Auction on February 19, 2011, and the theme of this year’s event, High Heels and Hard Hats, centers on the construction that is now underway for the new school building.  The event is funded through contributions by generous businesses and citizens like you. 

 

Net proceeds from the Gala and Auction will go to fund the budgeted PTO initiatives for the 2010/2011 school year with additional proceeds to be used to supplement the Houston Independent School District’s plan for the new school building.  This year’s event is a chance for the community to be a part of building for the future of Bellaire!
