Join Exploration Green!

Become a member of the Exploration Green Conservancy to join a community committed to the progress and preservation of native habitat in the heart of Clear Lake.  Your membership provides vital support and will help Exploration Green:

​

  • Welcome thousands of visitors every year

  • Provide free recreation and educational opportunities for the community

  • Create 6 miles of paved ADA-accessible trails

  • Maintain nearly 40-acres of both wetlands and permanent lakes

  • Upkeep almost 200-acres of native habitat for thousands of unique native trees and shrubs from approximately forty species

 

Exploration Green will return that commitment to you, its members.  Depending on the membership level selected, members will enjoy receiving Exploration Green’s digital newsletter, stickers to publicly show your support, priority registration for volunteer events, and private, members’ only tours conducted by Exploration Green’s volunteer Texas Master Naturalists. 

 

Join or renew your membership now to sustain Clear Lake’s green space!  Learn more about the membership impacts and benefits below.

 

For those who would rather not get stickers, hats, and the like, Exploration Green always appreciates regular donations.  Please visit our Donate web page for giving options.

 

If you would rather give of your time rather than money, please visit Exploration Green’s Volunteer web page.
