KDB

KDB board members cleaned their adopt-a-street area along FM517 in conjunction with TxDOT’s “Don’t Mess with Texas” Trash Off. Volunteers removed 17 bags of trash and debris from an illegal dump site.

Recipient of the Rebuild Texas Grant from Keep Texas Beautiful, KDB was able to purchase bedding plants and seven crepe myrtles to replace landscaping lost in the February 2021 freeze at the city’s historical railroad museum. Thank you to members of the Dickinson Optimist Club, one UTMB nursing student, and KDB board members who worked tirelessly for two hours improving the aesthetic appearance of the beautiful depot grounds.

In partnership with 10 volunteers from Higher Up 2 planted 100 bedding plants, 11 crepe myrtles. KDB supplied all plants, gloves, shovels, water and snacks for volunteers.

Thank you to our 118 volunteers that removed 36,000 lbs of litter and debris and 228 tires from miles of bayou banks, right-of-ways, ditches and illegal dumpsites in the Dickinson Bayou watershed on March 26, 2022. Together we removed harmful debris and litter before being carried into Dickinson Bayou and Galveston Bay that could have ultimately harmed fish, birds, other wildlife, and humans. Litter can lead to soil, water and air pollution. These toxins may eventually enter the human body…

Keep Dickinson Beautiful has decorated the gazebo (Hwy 3 by City Hall) for Christmas! Stop by and get some great holiday photos!

Congratulations to Dr Chaconas and Family Dental Clinic for winning the Keep Dickinson Beautiful Pride Award. Way to show Dickinson Pride!

We want to extend a huge “THANK YOU” to Team Rubicon for all of their cleanup efforts throughout the city. Unfortunately, we did not have a large volunteer turnout for two previous post-Harvey cleanups, but Team Rubicon stepped in for a third cleanup. Thank you again! We appreciate all that you do!
