🐝 It's National Pollinator Week! 🦋

Without pollinators like bats, bees, butterflies, moths, and hummingbirds, many of our favorite fruits, veggies, nuts, and flowers just wouldn't exist! These animals spread the pollen between plants that produce seeds and fruit. Part of our commitment to environmental sustainability is the protection of our pollinators and their habitats to support the diversity of natural life in our community. Visit one of Burleson's No Mow areas or pollinator gardens to see pollinators in action!

Here are a few easy ways to help pollinators:
🌻 Plant a variety of native flowers and plants
🌱 Let part of your yard "go wild"
🌼 Protect native milkweed plants, which are host plants for the monarch butterfly

Even a single pot of flowers on a balcony can make a difference. What are you doing to help the pollinators this week? Share below! 👇

There’s one thing we know for sure, BTX… "I Wanna Dance with Somebody," and so did everyone at Mayor Vera Calvin Plaza last Friday night!

Whitney: Queen of the Night delivered an amazing tribute to one of music’s greatest icons, filling the plaza with unforgettable songs, incredible vocals, and plenty of dancing. From the first note to the final encore, it was a night to remember.

We love seeing our community come together to enjoy music, make memories, and celebrate summer in BTX.

Families cast their lines and made lasting memories at our Father’s Day Fishing Tournament at Bailey Lake Park this weekend 🎣

📸 see all the photos at: https://flic.kr/s/aHBqjCXjtF

The morning brought together dads, grandfathers, father figures and their loved ones for a few hours of friendly competition, laughter and time spent outdoors. From first catches to stories shared along the shoreline, the event was a reminder that some of life's best moments happen when we slow down and connect with one another.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make this Father's Day tradition another great success. We loved seeing families enjoy the lake, celebrate together and create memories that will last long after the final cast.

Happy First Day of Summer, Burleson! Let's be real… this is Texas. Even on the sunniest summer days, storms can roll in fast. NEW: Perry Weather Lightning Detection is now live on our website! We've embedded the Perry Weather widget directly on our Splash Pad, Outdoor Pool, and Indoor Pool website pages, so you can check current weather conditions and lightning status before you head our way.

We use Perry Weather to monitor for lightning and storms within a 10-mile radius of our facility. Here's what happens when a storm is detected:
⚡ The Perry Weather alarm at the Splash Pad will sound
⚡ The Splash Pad will automatically shut off
⚡ Lifeguards will clear the Outdoor Pool
⚡ Lifeguards will close the Indoor Pool water slide (which extends outside the
building)

These closures stay in effect until an all-clear is issued after 30 consecutive minutes have passed with no lightning detected within 10 miles. Once that happens, the Splash Pad will automatically resume operation and lifeguards will reopen the facilities!

📱 Want to track conditions in real time? While you wait in a safe location or
check conditions from home, you can pull up these pages on our website to track the live Perry Weather widget and know the moment an all-clear has been issued: no more guessing how much longer the wait will be!

Your safety is our top priority. We appreciate your patience during any weather-related closures!
