Fort Bend County acquired Jones Creek Ranch Park, formerly Gordon Ranch, through generous contributions from The George Foundation, The Henderson-Wessendorff Foundation, and Harrison Interests, Ltd. Since the time of acquisition, Fort Bend County has updated the park’s existing facilities and utilities and recently completed the addition of a new administration building located in the front of the park to facilitate easy access for citizens interested in park information. For more information, please visit Jones Creek Ranch Park at www.fortbendcountytx.gov under Departments, County Services.
Judge Bob Hebert said, “This is a beautiful addition to Fort Bend County parks. The financial support of the two foundations and Harrison Interests gave us the park; and our own Parks Department with the help of our Road & Bridge and Facilities Departments, plus the Drainage District, have brought the park to life. Let’s use it!”
