Join the 100 Years Celebration!
Texas State Parks will be celebrating its 100-year anniversary all year long at every park across the state. We invite you to help celebrate by visiting a state park close to your home or your heart with your family and friends. Did you know that TPWD manages historic sites in addition to parks? Parks give us more than recreation. Many of the parks feature historic CCC structures and heritage events too!
