Nature Quest (April 22-24, 2010)

Join us each April for Nature Quest, the best birding and all-round nature festival in central Texas. During Nature Quest you'll enjoy learning from world-class experts about native plants, wildflowers, butterflies, insects, birds, bats and mammals through our field trips, workshops, seminars and evening programs.

Diverse vegetation, spectacular wildflower displays, monumental trees on the National Registry of Big Trees, abundant wildlife—including the world's second largest Mexican Free-tailed Bat population, lovely butterflies and birds—including many rare and endangered species such as the Golden-cheeked Warbler and Black-capped Vireo—are just a few of the reasons the River Region is a perfect backdrop for your natural adventures in every season.

Bicycle Classic October 2010

Experience the rugged beauty of the Texas Hill Country River Region by joining us each October for Bicycle Classic. This event is for the cyclist looking for a serious challenge as well as families wanting an enjoyable ride for everyone.
Headquartered at Garner State Park, Bicycle Classic kicks off on a Friday, with packet pickup, late registration, and a skills clinic focusing on climbing and descending skills needed for hill country rides. Maps of the area will be available for unsupported rides. An evening social with snacks, entertainment, and vendor booths is also part of the fun.

On Saturday, it’s your choice of supported routes: 32-mile Scenic Cruise, 52-mile Challenge, 68-mile Classic, and the 94-mile Century. The 52-mile Challenge and the Classic Century include the most spectacular hill climb and descent in Texas. All routes include beautiful views, river crossings, friendly, well-prepared rest stops at least every 10 miles, and expert SAG wagons and mechanics.
Enjoy a spaghetti dinner on Saturday night that benefits the park. Bicycle Classic proceeds are donated to local scout troops, EMS, and fire departments that volunteer their time to help ensure your ride is a safe one. For details on this year's event click here.
