Sports, Outdoors & Fitness - A BCO Affilliate

Let’s get wild y’all!
We’re throwing the ultimate social and reunion. 😀 It’s just been too long since we’ve seen so many great friends. Friends we’ve made over the last 25 years!

Step off the pavement and into possibility.

Join us for A Walk in the Woods — a brisk, energizing hike through Memorial Park, one of Houston’s best-kept outdoor secrets. These winding bayou trails are where the city fades, the trees open up, and you start to remember what fresh air feels like.

If you’ve been stuck in a routine — work, errands, repeat — this is your reset button. It’s an easy way to move your body, meet fun people, and remind yourself that Houston’s actually full of adventure… if you know where to look.

You don’t need to be “fit” or “outdoorsy.” You just need to show up.
We’ll take care of the rest.

🥾 What to Expect:
- 3–4 miles at a brisk but conversational pace (22–25 min/mile)
- Natural terrain: dirt trails, rolling hills, and a few roots to keep it interesting
- No-drop group: no one gets left behind
- Perfect for: active Houstonians, new friends, and anyone ready to swap small talk for sunshine

🎒 What to Bring:
✅ Trail shoes or sturdy sneakers (you’ll want the traction!)
✅ Water — it gets warm out there
✅ Bug spray & sunscreen
✅ Layers for the weather
✅ Your friendly, leashed dog (if they’re social and trail-ready!)

🚫 No kids, please — this one’s for adults only

Let’s face it. When you go on a hike, and you don’t really know anyone, you tend to just talk to the person who’s walking next to you. And while we try to mix things up on the hike, there’s no better way to get to know people than over a little food and drinks! 😀

Whether you hike with us or not, meet up for some brunch and drinks.

How to find the group:
Look for the BCO/HTXO Signs and the group of sweaty people who look like they just hiked! 😀

NOTE: Our hike is done at about 10:45 am at Memorial Park, so if you arrive before us, please grab a table outside.

Fees:
The Event is free to join, bring some money for your own food and drink.

Parking:
There is a small parking lot and street parking. Watch for not to park signs near the residential houses, and do not leave anything visible in your car.

Get ready for a volleyball experience like no other—perfect for those who love the game but aren't looking to join a league! Whether you’re here to learn the ropes, play a casual game, or simply meet other outdoor enthusiasts, our Volleyball Social is where the fun happens.

This event is all about good vibes, new friends, and planning your next big adventure. Sure, there’s volleyball, but we’re not about intense rallies all night long. Instead, we focus on connecting, laughing, and sharing stories of past and future adventures.

Every month, we draw a crowd of 30 to 80 fun-loving folks who are just as excited as you are to get outside and play. We’ve got our event posted on all the internet calendars, so if you want to see who’s in, just check out the RSVP list at the bottom.

Not in the mood for volleyball? No problem!
Many people come just to chill on the large patio, where you can join a friendly game of cornhole or ping pong. With a full kitchen and bar boasting 30+ taps, there’s something for everyone.

What to Expect:
Parking: Crowbar offers free dedicated parking, but if that fills up, there’s a paid lot nearby or free street parking. Give yourself 5-10 minutes to find a spot.
Finding the Group: Look for the HTXoutdoors and Bayou City Outdoors signs on the tables. We usually hang out on Courts 1 and 2, which are side by side.
About the Group: This event is a welcoming space for everyone, especially first-timers. You won’t be crashing a tight-knit crew; instead, you’ll find people who are eager to meet others with shared interests. It’s all about quick connections and discovering common ground.
So come out, meet fellow adventurers who love hiking, biking, camping, kayaking, rock climbing, and more! This isn’t just a volleyball game; it’s the start of your next great outdoor adventure.
