As we approach Memorial Day Weekend, it is important to take a moment to honor and remember the brave men and women who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. Memorial Day is a solemn occasion dedicated to those who have given their lives in service to protect the freedoms and values we hold dear.
This holiday is more than just a long weekend; it is a time for reflection and gratitude. We remember the courage, dedication, and selflessness of our fallen heroes. Their sacrifices have paved the way for the freedoms we enjoy today, and for that, we are profoundly thankful.
May we always remember and honor the legacy of those who have given their lives for our freedom. Their sacrifices will never be forgotten.
I am wishing you a reflective and peaceful Memorial Day Weekend.

We are extremely proud of the accomplishments achieved this spring toward preserving, protecting, and enhancing Turtle Creek. TCA continues its proactive efforts to clear undergrowth and brush along the waterway to improve the creek's flow and remove obstacles that might catch trash, and address urban decay, like the graffiti shown in the above pictures.
TCA's vendor, Trash Free Waterways, is helping us achieve our goal of a more strategic and comprehensive plan for addressing the trash issue in Turtle Creek. We hope you are also proud because, without you and your support, none of this would be possible! Together were getting it done!
