DISCOVER BRYAN In Bryan, we say that we live The Good Life, Texas Style. Our family-friendly community boasts everything from wineries, museums, and sporting events to mountain biking, fishing, and boating. And better yet, it is all within a 10-minute drive of historic downtown. Our parks system includes 700 acres of green space with ball fields, a new skate park, walking trails, pavilions, and four terrific pools. You can pitch horseshoes at our handicap accessible pits, play tennis at the only indoor facility in the region, golf at four different courses within a 9-mile radius, and enjoy the serenity of Lake Bryan, a 125-acre oasis for outdoor and camping enthusiasts. Stroll through historic Downtown Bryan, a Cultural District, with everything from shopping and dining to art galleries and antiques. You can visit the recently remodeled Queen Theatre and catch a movie, stop by the Carnegie History Center, the oldest Carnegie Library still in use in Texas, or take a short drive to Boonville Heritage Park to reminisce the times of yesteryear at the original county seat of Brazos County. You can also indulge your senses at Lake Walk Town Center where there is a collection of regional dining, hospitality, retail, and wellness offerings. With all the adventure, be sure to take time to enjoy a threecourse meal or a quick brunch at any one of a number of locally owned venues featuring homegrown, farm-to-table menus. Family friendly. Scenic drives. Diverse attractions. It’s why life is better in Bryan. 10 2019-2020 EXPERIENCE BRYAN COLLEGE STATION
