On September 8, 1966, Star Trek debuted for the first time on television with “The Man Trap,” the pilot episode of Star Trek: The Original Series.

On that day, Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry introduced audiences to a world that championed diversity, inclusion, acceptance, and hope. Fifty-nine years later, we celebrate the day and the franchise’s enduring legacy with the fourth annual “Star Trek Day” celebration.

Join us for a fun-filled Pop-up Plant Bingo™ in Montrose Houston - a chance to win prizes while playing bingo about different plants!
