By Marissa Bruno Promotions and Community Relations Member The atmosphere of a college football game is like no other. The roar of the crowd, the sea of maroon and gold, and the electric energy pulsing through the stands all create an unforgettable experience. At Texas State University, this atmosphere is amplified by one of the most essential parts of college game day, the Bobcat Marching Band (BMB), which acts as […]
By Eliza Miskovitz Promotions and Community Relations Member When the campus gets too busy or downtown becomes too loud, where can one go? Whether chasing the golden-hour light or looking for a quiet moment away from the bustle of daily life, Purgatory Creek and Spring Lake Natural Area are two local spots great for hiking that make San Marcos feel a little more magical than it already is. Both parks […]
By Lucas Kraft Promotions and Community Relations Member Private Park has garnered something of a larger-than-life reputation in San Marcos and beyond amongst musicians and fans–from folk to psych rock to death core–despite its humble nature hidden away in a corner of Nicola Alley. The space has provided a sanctuary for many who seek out community. When I moved to San Marcos, Private Park was one of the first places […]
By Lucas Kraft Promotions and Community Relations Member I first met Betsy Robertson, one of the initial founders of the Dunbar Community Gardens, at a lecture series sponsored by the Texas State History Department. Robertson, along with her colleagues Carolyn Jennings and Carmen Rumbaut, presented a talk detailing steps people can take to adopt sustainable practices in their daily lives in the face of recurring instability in both politics and […]

For the past several years, we’ve been experiencing what I like to call a “vintage revolution.” With it being nearly […]
By Kayla Jones Community Relations Member Getting into new hobbies can be an exciting journey, especially when it comes to plants, but for aspiring plant parents, knowing where to begin can quickly become overwhelming. With thousands of plant species to choose from, countless care tips online and confusing terminology, it’s easy to feel lost before you even buy your first pot. On top of that, being a busy college student […]
By Reagan Whitenack Community Relations Member I never truly knew what defined blues music and I never cared to learn, until a random Wednesday night at Jack’s Roadhouse. A strange atmosphere of longing, yet a real sense, of togetherness at the same time. A true paradox, but a beautiful one. Ace Pepper and the WNB (Wednesday Night Band) opened my eyes and showed me what blues music really is, and […]
By Leina Cantu Community Relations Member Art filled the streets of Downtown San Marcos as members of the San Marcos community enjoyed the San Marcos Art Fest on April 12. The fest provided opportunities for everyone of all ages to enjoy local and public art. The Chalk Walk hosted by the San Marcos Art League allowed children to unleash their creativity on the sidewalks. They were able to fill […]
By Reagan Whitenack Community Relations Member From its opening in 2022, Rachel McCartney has carefully cultivated a creative space for all things vintage with Old Soul Exchange located in San Marcos’ beloved square. The self-proclaimed “hippie stop” has now turned into a safe space for lovers of retro fashion, music, film and even just straight oddities. One of the first places I visited off campus as a new freshman coming […]
