Fourth of July:

The 4th of July festivities are: the fishing rodeo, the bike judging contest, and the parade. This year these activities will be held  Saturday, July 4, 2009. The festivities begin at 6:00AM with the Fishing Rodeo. Children age 15 and under compete at Fosters Mill Pond to win trophies in different categories. The Fishing Rodeo winds down just prior to 8:00AM, just in time for everyone to line up for the Parade. No registration is required.

There will be a Bike Decorating Contest for children at 8:00AM. This is located at Creekwood Middle School, across the street from the parade float line-up. Decorate your bike to impress the judges and you just may win a trophy!

If you are interested in participating in the parade, please contact the YMCA at at 281-360-2500. Commercial sponsors, please register with a minimum donation of $30 at the Kingwood YMCA on Lake Houston Parkway. Float entry for non-profit sponsors is no charge. Lineup for parade begins at Feather Lakes street in Bear Branch Village at 8:30AM. Float judging will take place before the parade kicks off.

The parade begins at 10:00AM on Feather Lakes in Bear Branch Village and ends when all participants reach Kingwood High School.

In the past, other activities have been a barbeque put on by the Boy Scouts and a street dance thrown by Alspaughs. More information will be posted as these events are confirmed.

Christmas Yard Decorating Contest:

As Christmas draws closer and the weather cools down, people begin to decorate their houses. This is a special time in Kingwood when you can see whole streets participating in a centralized theme! The Civic Club accepts entries and suggestions from each Village's Community Association. We then roam the streets appraising these entries and awarding recognition for various categories.

If your village would like to participate, please contact your Village's Community Association.

Other Events:

At this time, we want you to consider joining our organization! Without the strength of our community and its residents, we will not flourish. Our commitment is to grow with Kingwood and give its citizens a sense of community pride and spirit.

We meet on the first Monday of every month.  If you plan to attend, please send an email to kingwoodcivicclub@yahoo.com or call Sandy Lee, our Club Secretary at 713-822-3067.

Please come meet us!
