The Lake Brownwood Community Development Council came together in 2002 with
approximately 43 Brownwood Lake area merchants and residents coming together
at the Texas 4-H Center with the purpose of forming  an organization that
would work to make the Lake more appealing for businesses, tourists and
residents.

The LBCDC came together with goals that included a desire to improve Lake
Brownwood as a vacation destination and a beautiful place to live while also
promoting the area as a great retirement location.

The Lake Brownwood Community Development Council usually hosts their kid
fishing tournament in May but due to COVID-19 it had to be postponed until
August.  They hosted their 5th annual Kid Fishing Tournament.  This
tournament is open to children up to 12 years old.  This event allows
families to come together in an activity that can last a lifetime! This year
we had approximately 53 participants. The fee was the tournament was $10
which provided the participants with a nice fishing pole, tackle and lunch.
All fishing equipment was donated by Bishop Distribution.
