Texas Parks & Wildlife Expo 2004
Texas Parks & Wildlife Expo Offers Free Family Fun Oct. 2-3
AUSTIN, Texas Americas largest free, family-oriented festival of the outdoors takes place here the weekend of Oct. 2-3. The 13th annual Texas Parks & Wildlife Expo will allow tens of thousands of visitors to try fishing, shooting, kayaking, mountain biking, rock climbing and more, all at no cost.
The Expo began in 1992 as a tribute to the role of hunters in wildlife conservation, and it still promotes that tradition as a central focus. Today, it includes fishing, state parks, Texas history and almost everything else in the world of natural and cultural resource conservation and recreation. Texas Parks and Wildlife Department produces the event, which remains free to the public through sponsor support.
Its your outdoors, and this is your outdoors festival, said Ernie Gammage, TPWD Urban Outdoors Program leader. We put this event on as a free public service. From Brownsville to Beaumont, from Amarillo to Aransas Pass, whether youre in the next county over or halfway across the state, come on down. If you dont know anything about paddling or shooting or fishing or climbing, not a problemthis is your free chance to try it all.
