In tribute to Glen Campbell who sadly passed away yesterday we have made his 1972 anti-Vietnam War song our song of the week: 'Galveston, oh, Galveston I still hear your seawinds blowing I still see her dark eyes glowing She was twenty one, when I left Galveston Galveston, oh, Galveston I still hear your seawaves crashin While I watch the cannons flashin' I clean my gun, and dream of Galveston I still see her standing by the water Standing there looking out to sea And is she waiting there for me

Galveston’s story is one of resilience, and the 125th anniversary of the 1900 Storm gives us an opportunity to honor that spirit. Through exhibitions, tours, lectures, and community gatherings, we invite residents and visitors to reflect on the past while deepening their connection to the people and places that shaped our island’s remarkable recovery.
