OF THE MONTH
Finally, Daylight Savings Time Is Here
Daylight Savings time will begin in Texas at 2:00 am on Sunday, March 10th. It
is observed in all U.S. States except Arizona and Hawaii. It’s about time! No
more getting off of work to the darkness outside. We can actually enjoy the
beach after work again. The extra hour of daylight can be used for outdoor
recreation like golf, soccer, baseball, softball, running, and enjoying walks along
our Seawall.
Business profits increase from longer evenings as people have more daylight
hours to go shopping and/or enjoy the view at one of the islands many great
restaurants. More time to enjoy outdoor events also contributes positively to
the local economy.
Do we like it when it is dark outside at 5:30 pm? Do we
like feeling like it is midnight when it is actually 7:15 pm?

Let’s all ban together and support Daylight Savings Time all year round. More
daylight helps keep us more active and healthy. We can make this happen!
