Bass Pro Shops announced plans to celebrate the official Grand Opening of its new Outdoor World retail destination in Spring, Texas, with a special Evening for Conservation, open to the public, on Wednesday, October 2.
The Spring Outdoor World store will become the 16th Bass Pro Shops location in the great state of Texas, and the fourth serving the greater Houston market.
The new 125,000-square-foot store will bring the company’s trademark selection of premier outdoor gear at low prices and with genuine, friendly, expert service, giving outdoorsmen and women of the region even more convenience in finding the best outdoor gear at the best value anywhere.
Grand Opening Night’s “Evening for Conservation” Supports Local Organizations
The Outdoor and Conservation company invites the Spring and greater Houston community to a special ribbon-cutting ceremony and weekend-long celebration for its new premier location, highlighted by fishing and hunting celebrity appearances, leaders in conservation, family activities, giveaways and more. Plus, for every dollar spent during the Evening for Conservation, 10 percent will be donated to local conservation organizations.
Following an outdoor star-studded Grand Opening program and ribbon cutting, guests will enter to get the first public look at the company’s newest destination retail location as the store officially opens for business.
Entertainment and festivities for the Evening for Conservation will begin on Oct. 2, starting with a performance from country music singer and songwriter Blaine Holcomb at 5 p.m., and the official ceremony starting at 6 p.m., followed by the store opening.
