Passport to Texas

Stories of the Great Texas Outdoors

Tell us about a favorite camping trip to a Texas State Park…or about a fishing trip along the Texas coast…or the first time you went hunting with your Dad on a Texas Wildlife Management Area. Maybe you’ve had an amazing experience watching hummingbirds in West Texas, or paddling along an inland Texas paddling trail. If it happened in the Texas outdoors–we want to hear about it.

Tell Stories, Win Prizes

Tell us your story and you could win a prize–but you have to listen to win. Some of the radio stations that broadcast Passport to Texas are helping us collect your stories. If you listen to one of the participating stations, and are among the first 300 people in Texas to submit your Texas Outdoor Story online at www.passporttotexas.org, between July 21 and July 31, 2008, you will receive a free Passport to Texas / Life’s Better Outside t-shirt!

But that’s Not All–and this is IMPORTANT

Be sure to tell us on which station you listen to Passport to Texas, because the station with the most listeners submitting Texas Outdoor Stories will receive a grand prize to give away in a random drawing to one of its listeners who submitted a Texas Outdoor Story! And here’s what the prize package includes:

• A thousand dollar gift card to be used at Academy
• A State Parks Annual Pass
• A 12-month subscription to Texas Parks and Wildlife Magazine
• Life’s Better Outside gear
• And a chance to tell your story on the radio!
