College Station, TX 77840 Dear Steve, It has truly been a pleasure serving on the College Station Parks and Recreation Advisory Board for the past four years. My family and I have always enjoyed the excellent facilities and programs provided by the Parks Department and serving on the board was a terrific opportunity for me to learn how difficult it is to create and maintain such a great program. Over the last several years I've had the opportunity to get know and work with much of your staff. Please share with them my appreciation for the great job that they do each and every day. Thanks again for everything you and your entire staff do to make College Station a better place to live.
