FUNDRAISERS 

CRIME STOPPERS OF HOUSTON ANNUAL 

HOUSTON’S HEROES AWARDS LUNCHEON 

Celebrating its 40 years of service to Houston and Texas, Crime Stoppers 

of Houston will host its annual Houston’s Heroes Awards Luncheon on 

Tuesday, May 4, 2021 from 11:30 AM-1 PM at the Royal Sonesta Houston 

Hotel to honor outstanding individuals and organizations who have 

given exemplary service to make Houston a safer place to live, work, learn 

and play. 

Due to the public health threat from Covid-19 and the current health and 

safety protocols, we will offer both an in-person event with limited seating 

as well as virtual access for sponsors and supporters to participate from 

home. While Crime Stoppers had to cancel this event last Spring due to 

the pandemic, the organization is unable to do so this year and reminds 

the community that it relies on this event for funding. Eight distinguished 

awards will be awarded at this annual fundraiser that raises funds to keep 

our communities safe. For the second year, Crime Stoppers of Houston 

will reveal the winner of the Dave Ward Media Excellence Award. 

This unique award will honor an entity or individual who has exhibited 

media excellence and will be selected by Houston’s Media Icon Dave Ward 

himself, along with support from a small committee of his constituents at 

Crime Stoppers of Houston. For 40 years, Crime Stoppers of Houston has 

focused on solving crime through the famed Tip Line, 713-222-TIPS and 

reducing overall criminal activity by preventing it through educational 

community programming. 

The non-profit, which fundraises year-round will directly benefit from 

the luncheon’s proceeds to help further advance the Crime Stoppers’ 

mission. Attending the 2021 Houston’s Heroes Awards Luncheon is 

one easy way to support Crime Stoppers and public safety. The event 

is open to participation by all. Individual tickets start at $175 and 

sponsorship opportunities are available. Please note: Due to Covid-19, 

the event will be a hybrid event and we are urging the community to 

still get involved. To purchase tickets, visit https://crime-stoppers.org/ 

get-involved/2021CSLuncheon. For more information about the event, 

contact Paige Hollek at phollek@crime-stoppers.org or 713-842-7224.

We have done everything we can to try and reopen our doors, including 

becoming the first theater in the country to install hospital grade UV lights 

in our air filtration system. We even offered a safe and distanced indoor 

concert as well as an indoor offering from our educational touring unit 

this past fall. And when those projects proved financially challenging and 

COVID numbers spiked again, we created “Light Up the Lot” and moved 

all our programming outdoors. We’ve never given up. We never will give 

up. But due to circumstances beyond our control, we find ourselves 

needing to pivot once more. Which brings us to the announcement of 

our virtual season. Go to www.adplayers.org for all the information.

8 BEST SUMMER VACATION 

DESTINATIONS IN TEXAS 

1. GALVESTON: If you’re looking for a classic beach getaway, then a visit 

to Galveston is a must. Galveston beach is a popular summer destination 

among Texans, especially those in Houston, since Galveston is only about an 

hour drive from downtown. Galveston offers more than just the beach too, 

however beach fun is why many people flock here. Enjoy great shopping 

along the Strand, escape the heat by visiting Moody Gardens or try the 

thrilling water rides at Schlitterbahn Waterpark. There are plenty of hotels, 

resorts, and rental properties here that cater to the influx of summer tourism. 

2. GARNER STATE PARK: Spend time camping and tubing down the Frio 

River when you visit Garner State Park this summer. Garner State Park, 

located in Concan, Texas, is a popular summer destination among Texans. 

Although there are plenty of hiking and wildlife watching opportunities 

in the park, the main draw here is truly the Frio River, where the state park 

has 10 acres of river frontage. Many people kayak, tube, fish and even 

snorkel here. Garner State Park is so popular during the summer that 

the park hosts live music concerts on the weekend. This Texas summer 

destination is definitely a family-friendly spot. 

3. CORPUS CHRISTI: If you’re looking for more of a quiet beach scene than 

Galveston, then Corpus Christi is more your vibe. Tourism grows here during 

the summer and for good reason. Corpus Christi, or simply referred to as 

“Corpus” by Texans, has beautiful Gulf Coast beaches that are perfect for 

sunbathing, surfing, and windsurfing. If you’ve grown tired of the beach scene, 

the town of Corpus Christi offers a number of attractions, such as the Texas 

State Aquarium, the South Texas Botanical Garden, and the U.S.S Lexington. 

4. SAN ANTONIO: Escape to central Texas this summer by vacationing in 

San Antonio. With a unique city vibe full of history and culture, this Texas 

city makes for a great summer getaway. Stroll the Riverwalk to enjoy a great 

meal, explore the Alamo to learn about Texas history or even enjoy a thrilling 

roller coaster at Six Flags Fiesta Texas. San Antonio is a great summer vacation 

for foodies, since the area is packed with incredible restaurants from hole-inthe-wall 

Mexican joints to classy cuisine found along the Riverwalk. 

5. SOUTH PADRE ISLAND: South Padre Island may be known as a spring 

break destination but it shouldn’t be dismissed as a great summer travel 

spot as well. This Gulf Coast town is home to the most beautiful beaches in 

the Lone Star State. If you’re hoping for beach time this summer, then South 

Padre Island should be your destination of choice. With miles of white sand, 

plenty of shops to occupy your non-beach days, and even a Schlitterbahn 

Waterpark location, South Padre Island transcends from its spring break 

reputation into a popular spot during the summer months too. 

6. AUSTIN: Texas’ capital city has plenty to see and do during the summer 

months. Known as the Live Music Capital of the World, music lovers will 

find plenty of live music acts in Austin when they visit during June, July 

and August. Big headliners always hit up ATX during their summer tours, 

while local acts can be seen for free anywhere from coffee shops, local 

music venues and even the airport. Visit the Texas State Capitol, view the bat 

colony under the South Congress Bridge at dusk, shop the electric boutiques 

along South Congress Avenue and enjoy a wide variety of food truck cuisine 

during your summer stay in Austin. If you’re looking to escape the heat, take 

a dip in the Barton Creek Greenbelt or Barton Springs Pool. 

7. NEW BRAUNFELS: New Braunfels is a Hill Country destination that has 

grown into a popular summer getaway due to the Guadalupe and Comal 

Rivers and the up-and-coming craft beer scene here. Beat the Texas heat 

by floating in the cool waters of the Comal or Guadalupe Rivers. New 

Braunfels has strong German roots, so enjoy a bratwurst and a German 

beer during your summer stay here. If dancing and live music is your 

thing, then don’t miss out on a visit to the historic Gruene Hall, which is 

only 10 minutes outside of New Braunfels. 

8. BIG BEND NATIONAL PARK: Last but not least is Big Bend National 

Park. Although this park is located in west Texas, a desert environment, 

don’t let the heat scare you away. Take a hike during the early mornings 

or evenings to catch views of wildlife and avoid the desert heat during 

the day. This area is also known for its dark night skies, so stargazing is a 

must when you visit during the summer. Take a scenic drive or raft the Rio 

Grande to find a cool escape in this desert oasis.

May Gardening Tips 

Warm weather means our gardens and landscapes are 

growing fast. Here are some tasks to keep your landscape 

beautiful and productive: 

Flowers: Time to plant summer blooming perennials and 

annuals including plumbago, zinnias, angelonia, purslane, 

lobularia, sunflowers, yellow bells, pride of Barbados, 

duranta and bat-faced cuphea. 

Vegetables: May is a great time to plant, from seed or nursery 

plants, okra, sweet potatoes, cucumbers, winter squash, 

pumpkins, basil, peppers, lima beans, eggplant, garlic 

chives and Malabar greens. If you don’t want to dedicate an 

area of your yard, consider planting here and there in your 

flowerbeds. Edible landscaping is a popular new trend! 

Lawns: Water 1/2 to 1” of irrigation per week. A rain gauge 

or straight sided container (such as a tuna fish can) will help 

you know how long to run your irrigation system to apply 

1/2”. 

Weeding: Hand pull or hoe weeds while they are still young 

or better yet, maintain a 3” layer of mulch in all vegetable 

and flowerbeds to deter weeds from getting a start. 

Pruning: Remove spent blooms on spring and summer 

annuals to promote new blooms. 

Fertilizing: Fertilize flowerbeds and vegetable gardens w/ 

slow release organic fertilizer.
