This Rain Barrel Workshop is FREE for the first 30 Kemah residents to register. Proof of Kemah residency is required to receive a free 35 gallon barrel + kit. Limit one per household.
Join us on Sunday, January 12th, from 1:30-3:00pm at our Galveston Bay Foundation Headquarters (1725 HWY 146, Kemah, TX 77565) for a Rain Barrel Workshop!
Galveston Bay Foundation’s Rain Barrel Program works in partnership with Coca-Cola Southwest Beverages to conserve water and reduce stormwater runoff, pollution, and bacteria entering Galveston Bay.
This workshop will consist of a supply pickup, hands-on presentation, and Q&A session with Galveston Bay Foundation staff on site. The presentation will discuss water conservation tools like Water My Yard, the environmental benefits of reducing freshwater usage and collecting rainwater, as well as proper rain barrel preparation, installation instructions and tips.
Participants who purchase a rain barrel and kit can pick up their supplies between 1:00pm and 3:00 pm and opt to stay for the hands-on installation presentation at 1:30pm , or utilize a video link for instructions at a later date. Pre-registration is required to reserve a barrel but the event itself is free and open to all, so please bring family and friends.
