Freckle Town in Katy has it going on with so many interactions and activities for the people in that area. I drive from West 1960 often just to take part with my grandchildren. (Gas is so high prices). We, in the West F. M. 1960 near Walters Road area need our own web site and activities just like you all in Katy-Freckle Town. Keep Up The Great Work and Activities! My grandchildren and I just love it too .
