American White Pelican - (Pelecanus erythrorhynchos) - Awkward but amusing to watch when waddling about on land, but surprisingly graceful to observe when in flight or water-born, the white pelican, as clumsy as it can be is as majestic as it is. The White Pelican are migratory birds, spending their summers northward and wintering southward, are rather large feathered creatures that journey to the Bolivar area around mid October.

12th Annual Peninsula Bike Drive Christmas is around the corner which means it's time for The Precinct 6 Constable's Office and Bolivar Peninsula Chamber of Commerce to start collecting donations for our 12th annual Peninsula Bike Drive. This function has always been something we have enjoyed doing, but it wouldn't happen without help from the whole community. With hard economic times, this year it will be extremely tough for many families to put gifts under the tree for their children. If you are able, please help put a smile on a child's face for Christmas. Donations can be sent to Pct 6 Constables Office, PO Box 680, Port Bolivar, Tx. 77650. PLEASE MAKE ALL PAYMENTS PAYABLE TO: The Bolivar Peninsula Chamber of Commerce.
Thank you, William Comeaux |

Swimming off the flats with the first hint of Autumns cooling weather, the flounder began gathering in deeper waters moving towards the bays and passes to begin their Fall spawning migrations into the Gulf of Mexico. Along the way millions of these strange looking, double eyed flatfish would wriggle their way onto millions of dinner plates to be enjoyed by millions of happy anglers. |

The Gilchrist Community Association (GCA) would like to thank all of
the fellow citizens of Bolivar Peninsula for their overwhelming
support for our Legal Defense Fundraiser. Rollover Pass has a lot of
history and is enjoyed by thousands of fisherman, weekenders and
overnighters who support local businesses throughout the peninsula
while they are here and are vital to all of our financial growth. I
can say without any reservation that our Golf Cart Fish Fry Fundraiser
was successful and we could not have done it without you.
One of the GCA’s missions is to provide community services and on
Saturday, we prepared 50 fish fry plates and delivered them to the
employees of Gulf Coast Market who were unable to attend because they
were at work providing services to the visitors of the peninsula. We
are looking forward to providing other services in the near future.
Once again, thank you Bolivar Peninsula!
Sincerely,
Ted Vega
President, Gilchrist Community Association
