Benefitting the Cullinan Park Conservancy


Honoring Jim McClellan for his continued service and committment to Cullinan Park


We hope you’ve been able to enjoy Cullinan Park and all of its natural beauty during the past year. Thanks to your generosity at last year’s Picnic for the Park, our Phase II improvements are complete and we are moving ahead with planning for our nature education area that we call  LEAP (LEARN EXPLORE AND PLAY)



Your support helps us keep Cullinan Park a vibrant, natural Fort Bend destination.
