Hundreds of Lower Colorado River Authority employees fanned out across parts of Texas to volunteer on dozens of community projects during LCRA’s annual day of service, Steps Forward Day.

Yesterday (Friday), LCRA employees in Brenham repainted the handrails on two bridges at Jackson Street Park and replaced the windscreen on a pickleball court.

"Steps Forward Day gives us the opportunity to give back and say thank you to our customer communities,” LCRA General Manager Phil Wilson said. “This year, about 640 employees volunteered to work on projects communities may not have the time or resources to complete on their own.”

This year, LCRA employees volunteered on 34 Steps Forward Day projects in 30 communities.

LCRA launched its Steps Forward employee volunteer program in 2015. LCRA works with its customers to identify service projects in their communities, supplies the labor and helps provide the materials needed to complete the projects. For more information, visit www.lcra.org/stepsforward.
