The Show debuted in Houston on May 26, 1945 at J.S. Abercrombie’s Pin Oak Stables with the proceeds given to charity. In very short order this annual event became THE social show of the season. In 1948, Pin Oak began a long-term commitment to raise funds to construct, and later support, Texas Children’s Hospital, which opened in Houston in 1954. Pin Oak is one of the only horse shows in the nation that features not only hunters and jumpers, but also fine saddle and gaited horses, Welsh Ponies and roadster horses as well as featuring various rare breeds of horses on exhibit and in specialty and demonstration classes. The new generation of Pin Oak leaders began allocating funds for needed research at Texas Children’s and supporting the construction and maintenance of Family Centers at the Hospital staffed by Ronald McDonald House of Houston® volunteers. The Family room center continues to grow and serve the families of seriously ill chilren and the children themselves by providing a home away from home.

TopGolf

Corporation ; Sports/Outdoor

As you’d expect, the story of TopGolf began on a driving range, where two brothers were practicing their swings. The year was 2000. As boredom took hold, the brothers began brainstorming ways they could liven up their range experience and improve their skills at the same time. Why wasn’t there a place where they could work on their game and also have the best time of their lives? Why couldn’t they know exactly where their ball had landed? The idea for TopGolf was born. The Jolliffe brothers envisioned a new kind of golf experience that combines competition with entertainment. Players hit microchipped golf balls at targets on an outfield. Just picture a larger-than-life-sized outdoor dartboard – but for golf. And for a little friendly rivalry, the high-tech balls instantly score each shot’s accuracy and distance. Fast forward to 2013, and TopGolf has evolved to become a best-in-class entertainment facility, complete with a dynamic event spaces and a food and drink menu that would put any sports bar to shame. With golf pros strolling the tee line offering tips and climate-controlled hitting bays, TopGolf is flat-out fun at any age, skill level or time of year. It’s like drinks with your best buddies, the weekly poker night, a Sunday tee-time, playing Wii with the kids, and the best date you’ve ever had – all rolled into one. How did this fairy tale end? Well, it hasn’t. Today, TopGolf serves more than 1.5 million annual visitors worldwide. We want you to be one of them. Let’s Play!

Westbury Community Garden

Nonprofit ; Outdoors & Nature ; Sports/Outdoor

The 7-acre site of the Westbury Community Garden, located at Dunlap at Fonmeadow in the Westbury SuperNeighborhood, is owned by the Houston Housing Authority. For almost 30 years, the land has been park space. In 1982 the Westbury Civic Club filed suit against the Houston Housing Authority for violations of statutes related to their plans to build an apartment complex on this site. An out-of-court agreement was reached, and it was decided that this acreage would be a good site for a city park due to its location next to an existing 900+ unit apartment complex. The Houston Parks and Recreation Department leased and maintained the land for 25 years. In 2009, a group of volunteers seeking to build a community garden in the Westbury area discovered this 7-acre site within the Westbury SuperNeighborhood boundaries. The long-term lease of the site by the Houston Parks and Recreation Department had just expired, so the garden volunteers sought a lease with the Houston Housing Authority (The HHA is NOT a city department, the HHA administers federal funds). City Council Member Anne Clutterbuck negotiated a lease from the HHA on behalf of the Westbury Civic Club on 2 acres of the site in December of 2009. In 2011, the lease was modified so that we now lease the entire 7-acre site. The Westbury Community Garden is a joint project of the Westbury SuperNeighborhood, the Westbury Civic Club, and the Westbury Area Improvement Corporation.
