Padre Island National Seashore off the Texas coast is the world's longest
undeveloped barrier island, a home to several endangered species, and a popular
destination for millions of beach lovers. Unfortunately, BNP Petroleum is
threatening this paradise with an aggressive gas-drilling operation. Sierra
Club is hosting a benefit in Austin to fight the drilling on Padre Island. The
benefit features some of the best singer/songwriters in Texas and abroad. So come out and join us JUNE 8th for a night of music and community. Together we can protect Padre Island National Seashore for future generations! |
