Last Updated on January 30, 2024

Interested in learning more about how the San Antonio River Authority is committed to safe, clean, enjoyable creeks and rivers? Whether you are a part of a company, organization, neighborhood association, Kiwanis Club, Rotary Club, Gardening Club, or any other community interest group, you can request a member of our staff to present at your meeting to share valuable information and engage with your members.

Our community presentations help us accomplish our vision of Inspiring Actions for Healthy Creeks and Rivers while providing tips on how you can best protect and have fun on the San Antonio River. The presentations include a wide variety of important River Authority information such as how to assess your home’s flood risk, a review of San Antonio River Basin water quality, an explanation about the significance of sustainable, green infrastructure, details about the parks and paddling trails along the river, and ways that you can “Be River Proud” and join us in our efforts to protect and preserve our creeks and rivers.

As such, the San Antonio River Authority closely monitors updates and recommendations regarding COVID-19 from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, City of San Antonio, Bexar County, and the State of Texas. While we wish to best fulfill all requests, we may decline a request for an in-person presentation, field trip, or tour as necessary to remain in alignment with appropriate federal, state, and local health guidance related to COVID-19. When declining a request for health and safety reasons, virtual presentation options can be considered where feasible. Otherwise, we will look to find another suitable time to fulfill the request.
