Free Child ID Event at Walmart Today🧒Rising Stars Program Opens Doors for Local High Schoolers🩺
Great Backyard Bird Count🦅
Good morning Friends 👋. Wednesdays always feel like they’re standing right in the middle of everything — not quite the start, not quite the finish.
I came across this line that sums it up perfectly: “Wednesday is half ugly and half beautiful. One side of the coin is you have successfully passed two days of the week. Another side is, you have yet to pass two more days before the weekend arrives.”
The good news? You’re halfway there. Take a breath, give yourself a little credit, and let’s move through today steady and calm.

Free Child ID Event
at Walmart Today
The Baytown Police Crime Prevention Unit will be at Walmart (4900 Garth Rd) today, Wednesday, Feb. 11th from 1:00-3:00 PM offering FREE Child Identification for families in the community.
The Baytown Police Department’s Child Identification Program helps parents and guardians keep their children safe by providing a Child ID Card and ID Kit.
This allows families to record important details like physical characteristics and fingerprints, which are kept at home and can provide critical information to authorities if a child is ever missing.
Stop by, bring the kids, and take advantage of this valuable safety resource.
No cost. No appointment needed.
