La Porte Fulfills Vision Of Founding Fathers Over Last 125 Years 125 years ago a group of visionary men stood on the steps
of the county courthouse and sold lots of land in what would soon be La Porte for $25 a piece to people from all over the country. The Nebraska Syndicate sold the City to people based on four visionary dreams for La Porte’s future. We were to become the establishment of a great commercial center and leading harbor on the coast of Texas, a natural summer and winter resort area, we were to build a manufacturing center for the Southwest, and provide families an education center second to none in the Southwest. 125 years later La Porte has fulfilled the vision of our founding fathers and now serves over 35,000 residents that love to call La Porte home. From beautiful views along Galveston Bay to embracing history on the lands where Texas claimed her independence, La Porte has so much to offer not only our residents but also our visitors. Do your Friday afternoons consist of teeing off with friends and celebrating the end of a long week? Bay Forest Golf Course offers a beautiful 18-hole public golf course with its fair share of challenges to keep you sharp on your game. It’s a true golf test at an affordable price that makes it perfect for both the casual and championship player! Need insider tips for how to play each hole?

down and you can immerse yourself in all that makes the Lone Star great at the San Jacinto Museum of History. Take a short trek across the street and board the Battleship Texas! The 100-year-old ship took part in some of the most significant naval battles of the 20th century during both world wars. Now docked in the Houston Ship Channel, she serves as a memorial to those turbulent times. Head down to Sylvan Beach and stop in at the Train Depot, which is now the Old Sylvan Beach Depot Museum, on the weekends from 10-4 to connect with the City’s 125 years of history in a way that brings it to life and gives insight into who we are today! Love a good family friendly party? La Porte is home to several family friendly events throughout the year that keep our community connected! From the Sunset Sip & Stroll Farmers Market which is held third Saturday’s at Five Points Plaza to Flicks at Five Points on Friday nights through the summer where families are encouraged to bring blankets and chairs and join us for a movie under the stars, we are constantly bringing our families together. Each year we host several larger family friendly street festivals like Mardi Gras on Main (held the 3rd Saturday in February), the Search for Lafitte’s Gold (held the 3rd Saturday in October), and Christmas on Main (held the 1st Thursday in December)! After joining us in the fun, you’ll have a hard time deciding which one is your favorite! 125 years of history is definitely something to celebrate and we have BIG plans for 2017 for the City!

Morgan’s Point Has Big Plans For 50-Acre Site Owned By The City The City of Morgan’s Point has big plans for 50 acres of land
the city purchased recently. The project has been named “The Colonel James Morgan New Washington Prairie.” If you know your Morgan’s Point history, you know that Col. James Morgan started it all, and New Washington was the original name of the area that was to eventually become Morgan’s Point. And it was a bayside prairie. The purpose of the Plan is to propose an open space nature preserve located on the 50 acres, which will serve as: * A natural buffer between the residential portions of Morgan’s Point and the Barbour’s Cut shipping terminal facilities to the north. * A re-created coastal prairie preserve that features grass, forb, shrub and tree species that are native to the region and typical of coastal prairies. * A means to tell the story of the founding of Morgan’s Point and key points in the city’s history. * Recreational amenities that allows for small numbers of visitors to access the site through limited off-street parking, and passive activities such as walking trails, rest areas, and birdwatching facilities. While there are many exciting aspects of this Plan, one that will be of significance to not just Morgan’s Point residents but also visitors to the city is the Coastal Prairie Restoration. This will include a reintroduction of native plants to a portion of the area, with numerous grasses, plants trees and flowers as part of the project. Also, birdwatchers will like the Coastal Prairie plan as even more

migratory birds will be on the scene, drawn by the restored prairie. There are many possibilities for the future development of this site. For instance, perhaps an elevated prairie viewing area could be included, or a Visitor Center, or a community park with playground and picnic grove, or the construction and operation of an 1830s period farm, or an extensive trail system. The possibilities are many, and the city looks forward to working with citizens and others to help formulate plans.
Visitors Will Be Able To Walk Through Prairie Restoration
A Visitor Center Is One Of Many Possibilities For The Col. Morgan Site

Shoreacres: Still A Sanctuary From The Hustle And Bustle The City of Shoreacres has seen new homes going up throughout the community of late, including some large Bayfront homes on
Miramar Drive. The city has also seen a number of infrastructure upgrades recently, to streets and other city systems. And a recently completed new police station stands just across Shoreacres Boulevard from City Hall. Shoreacres is well known as a sanctuary from the hustle and bustle or today’s lifestyle, and two “retreats” in particular can be found in the fact that the city is proud of its standing as a bird sanctuary, and proud as well of the fact that it is home to the Houston Yacht Club – the oldest yacht club in Texas. Known as “The Pink Palace,” the Yacht Club is an historic landmark along Galveston Bay. It has 27,000 square feet of clubhouse space, and its harbor has more than 250 slips for boats of all shapes and sizes, plus a 400-foot guest dock. The Shoreacres Civic Association helps maintain the flora and landscaping of the wooded environment of the city, and organizes a number of fun events such as an Easter Egg Hunt and Halloween festivities, all accomplished through a variety of fundraisers. Also, the Shoreacres Recreation Association oversees the management of the lighted fishing pier on Miramar in Galveston Bay, just to the north of the Houston Yacht Club. There is also a boat ramp at the pier, and all add to the leisure conveniences of residents of the city.
HoustonYacht Club Brings Focus Of Sailing World To Galveston Bay The Houston Yacht Club, the oldest and one of the grandest yacht clubs in Texas, recently hosted a nine day event featuring sailing
races as part of the United States Optimist Dinghy Association – USODA. And despite some challenges with weather, the races were completed and the extravaganza was carried out with the usual HYC combination of hospitality and professionalism. There were actually numerous events under the umbrella of the 2016 USODA National Championship. Included was a Team Race National Championship; a Girls National Championship; A National Team Sendoff; and a National Championship and Green Fleet Racing event. That National Team Sendoff, by the way, allowed those present to celebrate with the sailors who will be representing the USA at the Olympic Games in Rio in August. So you could rightfully say that the Houston Yacht Club brought the focus of the sailing world to Shoreacres and Galveston Bay.

The La Porte-Bayshore Chamber: A Proud History Of Leadership The La Porte Chamber of Commerce was formed in 1922 at a meeting at Dudley’s Café at Sylvan Beach Park. The organization was incorporated and chartered in March, 1923 by E.A. Johnson, H.B. Harrison, and A.T. Seaman. Dues were $5 per member in the early years. A credit bureau was a part of the organization from 1923 until 1971. In 1972, the Chamber had its name changed to La PorteBayshore Chamber of Commerce to include the cities of La Porte, Morgan’s Point, Shoreacres, and Lomax. Lomax no longer exists as a separate city as it was annexed by the City of La Porte in April 1980. The Chamber bylaws call for a board of directors which consists of 21 members, each elected to a three-year term. There are 7 retiring directors and 7 new directors each year. Officers are elected from the board members and include chairman of the board, chairman of the board-elect, and 5 vice-presidents. In addition, the Mayors of La Porte, Morgan’s Point, and Shoreacres are all ex-officio members of the board, as is the immediate past chairman. The Chamber employs three professional staff members to serve the membership and the public: president, administrative assistant, and a part-time secretary/ receptionist. Currently, standing committees and various task force groups are divided among 6 teams. The Chamber is fortunate to have a vast body of volunteers dedicated to the success of the many events and activities that they undertake. The Chamber office is located at 712 W. Fairmont Parkway and may be reached by phone at (281)471-1123 or fax at (281)4711710. The web address is www.laportechamber.org.

History
The minutes of the very first Board of Trustees meeting on March 11, 1915, include the following excerpt: “The President notified the Board that he had been advised that a special act had passed the Legislature and had been given effect on March 1, 1915, creating the La Porte Independent School District with the boundaries as set out in the act; that the act provided the town of La Porte be divested of the control of the public free schools within is limits and become a part of the said La Porte Independent School District; and that the trustees of the Independent District comprising the town of La Porte, which district was abolished by the creation of the new districts, should until the expiration of the term for which they were elected hold the office of trustees and constitute the Board of Trustees of the said La Porte Independent School District.” The minutes reflect that the Board members present included A. Muldoon, president; C.J. Higginbotham; E.C. Downer; E.P. Seureau; and Geo. Van Pelt, secretary. At the meeting, the members also authorized the purchase of wood for a school at the cost of $9, water for a school at the cost of $10, and tile and drainage at the cost of $8.25. In addition, $10 was set aside to “buy books for those unable to buy for themselves, which books shall be held as the property of the school district.” Although the La Porte Independent School District was formed at that time, records show that schools in La Porte date back to 1893, when the children of settlers attended school in a vacant store

100th Anniversary Block Party Oct. 1 building donated by A.B. Prince at the corner of Main and Fourth Streets. As the town grew, a two-story, four-room school was built on the corner of Second and G Streets in 1896 and served the community through the school year of 1916. In 1909, a school was organized for the black students of La Porte, with school held temporarily in the Baptist Church on the north side of the community. The school then moved to a one-room school building that was later sold to La Porte ISD. During its first year, 10 students attended classes there and were taught by Viola DeWalt, for whom the current La Porte ISD campus located at 401 North 2nd Street is named. Mrs. DeWalt taught at the school for over 30 years. In 1943, a two-room school building that had been used in Morgan’s Point and then near La Porte Elementary was moved next to the one-room building, and an additional teacher was added. DeWalt Elementary was built in 1953, and students in grades one through eight went to school there, while older students went to George Washington Carver High School in Baytown until La Porte schools were integrated in 1963. After the formation of La Porte ISD, in 1916 construction began on a three-story building on Broadway. Schools that were in Morgan’s Point and Lomax were closed, and these students went to the La Porte ISD school as well. This was the only school in La Porte until 1940, when La Porte Elementary was opened just south of the old building, and the three-story building served junior high and high school students. The top two floors of the three-story building were
destroyed by a hurricane in 1943, and the first floor of the building continued to be used until 1963, serving as part of the new high school and junior high school which opened in the same location in 1944. In 1953, the intermediate elementary building was added just south of the elementary building, which then served primary students. Continued growth created the need for a new high school, and in 1959, the present La Porte High School opened. La Porte Junior High School then occupied the older building. Over the years, additional schools were added, and today, La Porte ISD serves over 7,700 students at 12 campuses. The district includes seven elementary schools, a sixth grade campus, two junior high schools for seventh and eighth grade students, DeWalt High School and La Porte High School.
The Next 100 Years
Thanks to community support of the $260 million bond issue in 2014, La Porte ISD is working toward serving the needs of students for the next hundred years. “We are building for children we have yet to see, in a world that is limited by our own experience and not by what their educational needs may be,” said Lloyd W. Graham, La Porte ISD superintendent

Baker Students Part Of MIT Demonstration
Multiple Building Replacements, Renovations of schools. In early 2014, the Citizens Bond Advisory Committee recommended the $260 million bond issue, up from the amount originally proposed by Graham, after touring and assessing district facilities. The committee included trustees, parents, community leaders, other interested citizens, students, faculty members and administrators as resource personnel. Many of these individuals continue to serve on the Citizens Bond Construction Advisory Committee as projects are completed in the district. Several of these projects were finished for the start of the 201617 school year. Lomax Elementary School welcomed students on Aug. 24 in a 108,500-square foot facility located on the north side of the existing campus. The two-story structure replaced the former school that was built in 1978 and was demolished during the summer of 2016. The James H. Baker Sixth Grade Campus also opened its doors to students with the start of the 2016-17 year. This school was also built on the current Baker campus, where the former building was built in 1963. The new two-story building with 132,000 square feet is positioned next to the district’s Instructional Technology Center, and the old school was demolished this summer. La Porte High School is undergoing a major rebuild at the current campus, with projects totaling 530,000 square feet. A ribboncutting was held at the new softball field during the spring of 2016, and the new fine arts facility and career and technical education center opened in August. Areas of the old high school have been demolished as construction begins on a science classroom building and multi-purpose center. A new natatorium is also going up, and renovations to the Student Center and other areas are in progress. Major renovations have also been completed at La Porte Junior High School, Lomax Junior High School, College Park Elementary School and La Porte Elementary School. At La Porte Junior High School, office area renovations and the addition of a new gymnasium were completed in April 2016, with the old gymnasium demolished later in the spring. At Lomax Junior High School, the administrative area was renovated to include a security vestibule, and classroom areas were also renovated. College Park Elementary School’s renovations included relocation of the administrative areas and front entrance of the school to Purdue Street. Classrooms and hallways were also renovated, a new
gymnasium was constructed, and a covered playground area was added. Most of this work was completed by April 2016. La Porte Elementary’s renovations included classroom and hallway renovations and the addition of a covered playground area, which were completed prior to the start of the 2015-16 school year. During the summer of 2016, covered playground areas were added at Leo A. Rizzuto, Jennie Reid, Heritage and Bayshore elementary schools. Renovations were made to science classrooms at Jennie Reid as well, and a walking track was added at Bayshore.

Championship Golf Course Awaits At Bay Forest One Of The Finest Municipal Facilities In The State Of Texas Bay Forest, an 18-hole, championship layout, is recognized as a top municipal course in Texas offering the perfect “fit” for every golfing skill level, and includes a full driving range and practice putting and chipping greens. The Bay Forest website at www.bayforestgolf.com has a wealth of information – online tee times, a food menu, special event notices, tournament results, driving range and lesson information, and notices of upcoming clinics and competitions. The website also includes a hole by hole flyover complete with helpful hints on how to play each hole. The grill has one of the best burgers around among other great options to dine on and includes a full bar. There is also in place an open air pavilion that can seat over 100 people. PGA professionals are on staff to help visitors improve their game and the staff holds three junior clinics annually for children 6-12 years old. Private instruction is also available by appointment for students of any age. One of the finest aspects of Bay Forest is the very affordable annual golf memberships for residents and non-residents alike. There is a new family membership plan that could save a golfing family hundreds of dollars in annual green fees. Bay Forest has instituted a loyalty program where that customers may opt in free of charge and begin earning 5% back of what they spend on carts, green fees and memberships. The earnings will be in
the form of “Loyalty Points” and, once enough have been awarded, can be used to purchase green fees and/or cart fees. Memberships in the Bay Forest Handicap Association is also available at a nominal fee. And includes handicapping services, a monthly newsletter, and eligibility to enter the Association’s monthly events. The Bay Forest Handicap Associationis licensed by the U.S. Golf Association, and both men and women can thus establish handicaps at Bay Forest that can be used at courses throughout the USGA system.

Miller Named Volunteer Of The Year
A heart and passion for a community doesn’t always come through living there. Though Katie was not born or raised in La Porte, she has come to love this community which grew through working here and being involved in various activities. Katie just completed her threeyear term as the Vice President of Fundraising for the Chamber and has been a co-chairman of several committees including Casino Night, Hamburger cookout and Steak cookout. She has also served on the Salute to Industry committee, participated in Christmas on Main Street, and La Porte High School’s Career Fair during her term on the board of directors. Katie’s true passion came with working with high school aged girls through the Miss Sylvan Beach pageant. She has done everything from gathering convertibles for the parade, helping backstage, being an assistant director to helping in the transition of the director’s position to the next generation this past year. Her time on the Board of Directors has been a rewarding experience, which she is most grateful for. It has helped shape her for future endeavors, afforded her the opportunity to meet many great people, and shown her the spirit that is the La Porte-Bayshore area.

The Chamber - A Personal Invitation. . . Recently one of our new members stated that he had wanted to become a member of the Chamber for a while, but he thought he had to be asked. This statement was a surprise – staff and volunteers “assumed” that “everyone” knew that Chamber membership is open to all. It suddenly became obvious that the Chamber staff and the volunteers needed to devote more time to communication.
The Chamber is a corporation, which has a board of directors, fulltime professional staff, articles of incorporation and bylaws. It is devoted to marketing, promotion, and business development in the La Porte-Bayshore area. However, the Chamber is really people – people who join together to solve problems or advance programs, which make this area a better place to live, to work and to do business. It provides opportunities for members such as networking, referrals, publicity and exposure, education and training, information, and much more. Membership in the Chamber is open to all businesses as well as to individuals who are not associated with a business. Although Chamber staff and volunteers try to make contact with the businesses in the area to invite them to join, we know not every business will be contacted. So, if you haven’t been contacted and would like to become involved with other business owners and people who have an interest in improving the La Porte-Bayshore area, remember, you don’t need to be asked. However, if it would make you feel more comfortable to be invited, please consider 2016 Miss Sylvan Beach Winners this your personal invitation. If you’ve Pictured from left to right are Miss Flower Puff Girlz Tiffany Goodin; Miss Beth Brady In- always wanted to join the Chamber, now surance Agency Heleina Chaplin; Miss Main Properties and Sylvan Beach Winner Lind- is the time!
