HCC Gets Social
Wildflower Hike

Hill Country Conservancy has a Facebook page! When you become a fan, you'll get the latest updates in your news feed. What goes on the Facebook page? Mostly pictures, event notices, news updates, and the occasional video. Check it out here and become a fan.

In May, we also started Twittering from @hereforever. Let us know what you're up to in an @reply or wall post.



New Way to Volunteer

Do you enjoy helping HCC protect the Hill Country? Now you can sign up to receive volunteer alerts on your cell phone. Just text "VOLUNTEER" to 62407 and we'll send you alerts when volunteer opportunities come around.

We only send out a couple alerts each month and you can reply "STOP" to opt-out at any time. This service is free but your standard text messaging rates apply. Sign-up today!
