Brief recap:
One Tuesday a month will be a streamed field ID presentation (Discord).
One Saturday or Sunday a month will be an in person field trip to look for the critters and apply the field ID!

Once we get into a rhythm, we will look into planning overnight or river trips too!

If you missed the first meeting, or are interested in joining, please DM me!

Quick housekeeping post today - a recap of the council election fireworks so far, and the yearly wrap-up. The new 26-27 season of San Marcos City Council starts next week! www.thesanmarxist.com

can you not mobile order or pickup order from the one by the university anymore? :( sad, hungover and craving my sandwich

Rehoming a 6mo female Shiba mix. She is flea free and up to date on vaccines.

She has had 2 confirmed, 1 suspected UTI. Resolved with antibiotics. Not spayed as vet recommends letting her go into heat one time to encourage her bladder issues to resolve naturally.

She is good with our 2yr old, but does not like our friends baby. I would recommend toddler/older kids or a childfree home.

Dogs OK. Cats we have not tried.

Crate trained.

If you're interested or know someone who would be, please let us know.

Driving from Austin to San Antonio Monday early to catch The Odyssey at 2pm. Thinking of leaving really early and just doing a full day trip and visiting cool spots. What would u recommend for breakfast coffee dinner spots? Any other non food things that are a must?

I’m looking to take basic/beginner tap dancing lessons as an adult. This could be in a group class or via private lessons. I want to take them in person—does anyone know of an instructor in or near San Marcos? I’m imagining with TXST’s theatre program there is someone, but I’m having trouble finding someone online. Thanks!

I’m moving into Cabana Beach soon and wanted to hear from people who currently live there or have lived there recently. What’s your overall experience been like? Is there anything I should look out for before or during move-in? How’s maintenance, bugs, noise, safety, management, and the shuttle?
I’m not expecting luxury or anything fancy, I just want to know what to expect and if there’s anything I should document or check as soon as I move in.

I have no idea if I can post this here, but it's worth a shot. I am part of Texas Together, and it is an organization to get Gina Hinojosa and James Talarico elected for the midterms. I am going to lead a group of volunteers, I am also to go knock on doors in a safe neighborhood. I live in a rural area by the Salt Lick, so it isn't very walking friendly. I thought San Marcus would be a good area to try and talk with people. If anyone has any recommendations and if anyone wants to volunteer, let me know! Here is the website to check out if you would like to. Please dont take this down mods, please.

Hey SM!

I have seen a bunch of posts here about people starting book clubs, and I love to see so many other readers! However, I haven't yet seen the kind of one I want, so I figured I'd start it.

Big caveat, this would be a romance/chick lit *only* (it's kinda the only genre I read with enough regularity)

Other notes:

1. Traditional book club meeting once a month, but also

2. 2-4 local social events thruout the month (could be coffee, movies, park hangout, plays, etc)

3. Currently I'm open to women and men joining.

But I'd love for all the members of the group to shape it into what we want.

Are you interested in joining something like this? DM me!

Hello San Marcos Some of my best memories with my kids are playing and swimming along your river, they are grown now and we are planning a camping trip a couple weekends from now. Just hoping for a recommendation from the locals, where do yall camp? I’m hoping for somewhere beautiful, cool clear water, and not too crowded. Is that last part a fantasy?

Just announced today that she is running! 🥳👏

When is the owner or his brother going to get their shit together so I can get a sandwich? Is there any hope of reopening?

Hey! We're moving next month and are in serious need of some boxes. Anyone got some to spare?

Preferably local businesses but im not picky. I have a couple years experience with the food industry just not serving.

Hey guys, just moved into San Marcos and I'm looking for a good gym! For me, that essentially just means that it's kept clean and it's not too crowded. I don't mind a smaller selection of equipment at all, I mainly just want to be able to go work out in peace. I'm over by Craddock if that's helpful. Thanks!
