We held the 5th Annual Cornhole Tournament at Beacon 44 RV Park on August the 31st. With rain forecast all week, Labor Day Weekend in POC wasn’t the normal hustle and bustle. But we made the best of it.

Mark your calendars for next year (August 31, 2025 )and plan on joining in the fun! We will be donating the whole amount of proceeds to a local organization -in the past it was half but we intend on changing it up. The trophies are amazing and worth hanging on the wall! We appreciate the ones that make them for us and kindly donate them!
This years winners are:
1st Place- Jacob and Eric
2nd Place – Nolan & James
3rd Place – Jeff & Hank

Thank you to all that came and joined us. This event is open to the public not just our RV Park.

This young alligator was spotted on 7th Street in Port O’Connor, but other larger ones have also been in town.
The recent heavy rains have given them access to places they don’t usually go, so keep an eye out for them.
We don’t know what to tell you to do if you see one. It is illegal to kill an alligator.

It is wonderful to see people contributing their skills and time to improve the shared spaces we all enjoy. Quite a productive workday was held during morning hours despite the August heat. The community garden is getting a fresh start for the fall planting. Kudos to all the volunteers for their dedication and hard work!

The POC Community Garden especially thanks Bobby Allen and Eddie Debowski. Their efforts with the mower, mindfulness, and hard work made a significant impact on the garden’s appearance. Thanks to them and everyone who pitches in to make the community a better place!

The annual meeting on September 24th is a perfect opportunity to celebrate the year’s demanding work and discuss exciting plans for the future. The new shade structure will make a fantastic spot for the gathering of existing members and anyone interested in joining. Please mark your calendar to attend.
