Public Involvement

The Annual Spring River Clean Up occurs the first Saturday in March Every year. The Annual Fall River Clean Up occurs the first Saturday of October. Everyone, from students to residents, is encouraged to sign up as a volunteer to help beautify our city! Volunteers will work within different watersheds throughout the area to pick up trash and recyclables to prevent them from harming our water bodies and native species. 

Is an annual service event hosted by Texas State University in which students volunteer their time to complete various service projects throughout the community, such as landscaping, painting, or clean-ups at residents’ homes, local schools, parks, churches, and neighborhoods. The Stormwater Management Program has used Bobcat Build volunteers to install storm drain markers across the TXST campus. These markers serve as a reminder that all storm drains flow to nearby waterbodies, such as the San Marcos River. While installing inlets, students are also encouraged to pick up litter!
