MRT recently reported on KBBW’s upcoming activities.
Keep Big Bend Wild is a collaborative effort by people who share an appreciation for Big Bend National Park and want to ensure its wild character continues to thrive for generations to come.
Bob Krumenaker, the national park’s former superintendent and organizer of the nonprofit, will return to Midland to discuss the grassroots effort by Keep Big Bend Wild next week. In three separate speaking engagements over two days, Krumenaker hopes to educate Midlanders about the national park’s need for a wilderness designation, which it has never received.
Keep Big Bend Wild is Coming to Midland Nov 10-11! You’re invited!
We will be at Sibley Nature Center November 10, from noon to 1:30pm. Please join us, for a light lunch provided by the Permian Basin Area Foundation. Bob Krumenaker will be speaking to us about Keep Big Bend Wild project. More info can be found on the Sibley Nature Center website.
On November 11, from 11:30am to 12:30pm, Bob Krumenaker will be speaking at the Brown Bag Lunch and Lecture Series at the Petroleum Museum. Texans love Big Bend National Park for its sweeping vistas, rugged beauty, and outdoor adventure opportunities, but as more people discover this West Texas gem, how do we keep its wild spirit alive? Its wild, open spaces face new pressures. Join Bob Krumenaker, former Big Bend superintendent, as he discusses the Keep Big Bend Wild initiative, a citizen-led effort to ensure the park’s remaining undeveloped lands are permanently protected for future generations.
Discover how this non-partisan movement is rallying support across Texas to preserve the park’s natural and cultural treasures, protect wildlife and night skies, and sustain the access and experiences visitors cherish. Join us for an engaging look behind the scenery of Big Bend, and learn how you can help keep one of Texas’s greatest landscapes truly wild.
Free admission. More details can be found on the Petroleum Museum site.
