Median Madness Round 3 Coming October 18

10/9/25 – Houston City Council Member Fred Flickinger has scheduled another Median Madness event for Saturday October 18 from 8:30 to noon along Northpark Drive between Forest Bluff and Bassingham Drives.

Join District E, Trees for Kingwood and Houston Parks for a community cleanup of the medians in Kingwood!

It will involve picking up trash and trimming underbrush along the curb line to enhance aesthetics and safety.

To ensure your safety, the inside lanes of Northpark Drive will be closed for parking and cleanup.

The work area stretches from slightly east of Woodland Hills Drive for two blocks. See below.

Sign Up Now

Please confirm your attendance by signing up now. Once registered, you’ll receive an email with a waiver and helpful tips to prepare for the event. Be sure to complete the waiver and bring a printed copy with you on the day of Median Madness, October 18th.

What to Bring, Wear

And please remember to bring water, gloves, and wear closed-toe shoes. Tools will be available for use, but organizers encourage you to bring your own tools if possible. All ages are welcome, though those under 16 should be accompanied by an adult.

Long-Range Weather Forecast Beautiful

Previous Median Madness events focused on Kingwood Drive. One scheduled last Spring for Northpark was cancelled because of weather. But the long-range forecast for the 18th indicates the weather should be sunny and seventy.

The Power of People Working Together to Improve Their Community

The first two Median Madness events drew huge crowds of volunteers from all over Kingwood who had had enough of unsightly vines encroaching on traffic and narrowing lanes. Their efforts can still be seen today.

Despite the hard work and sweat, you saw nothing but smiles as volunteers worked side by side and tore into the vines. So mark your calendars for Saturday, October 18.
