Get ready for a groovy time at the Fort Bend County Museum Association’s 28th Annual Lone Star Stomp! Set for Saturday, April 8th at the George Ranch Historical Park, located at 10215 FM 762 in Richmond, this year’s Stomp will be a throwback to the 1960s as the Museum Association celebrates its 50th anniversary. Revel in the decade that brought Beatlemania, flower children and the Summer of Love with live music by The Triumphs, dinner catered by The Swinging Door, live and silent auctions, signature cocktails and lots of 1960s era fun!

The Museum Association, which was founded on April 11, 1967 by an eclectic group of 22 citizens from all over Fort Bend County, has been sharing and preserving Fort Bend County’s history for five decades. Honorary chairmen for this year’s Stomp are the original founders and their descendants.

“Our founders knew how important it was to preserve our heritage for the future,” said Billie Van Slyke, chairman of the 2017 Stomp. “Without their vision, so much of our important Texas history would have been lost over the decades. We are so excited to honor the founders and their families with this ‘far-out’ party that will celebrate the past 50 years – and look forward to the next 50!”

The steering committee is co-chaired by Dottie Allen, Diane Elko and Keely Knipling. All proceeds benefit the Fort Bend County Museum Association. Tickets start at $75 each for open seating and $800 for a reserved table of eight.
