They’re the crystal-clear springs\, winding rivers\, hidden caves\, majestic trees\, and the aquifers beneath our feet that have sustained generations. These natural treasures are the living legends of our Texas landscape\, and their story is still being written. \nThe Trinity Aquifer. Jacob’s Well. Medina Lake. Carrizo-Wilcox Aquifer. The rivers and springs of the Texas Hill Country. These waters have nourished wildlife\, communities\, and generations of Texans for centuries! \nOn this special evening at the legendary Victoria’s Black Swan Inn\, we’ll celebrate both the rich history of this remarkable place along the banks of the Salado and the living legacy of the waters that sustain us all. \nJoin us as we celebrate the legendary waters that have shaped our past\, sustain our present\, and deserve a thriving future.\n \nSaturday\, November 7th\, 2026   • 5:00-9:00 pm\nHistoric Victoria’s Black Swan Inn\n1006 Holbrook Rd. | San Antonio\, TX 78218\n\n\n\n\nNestled along the banks of Salado Creek\, Victoria’s Black Swan Inn is one of San Antonio’s most storied and intriguing historic sites. Built in 1867 atop the grounds of the decisive Battle of Salado\, the property has witnessed centuries of history — from Native American encampments to pivotal moments in Texas’ early days. Steeped in folklore and touched by mystery\, it provides the perfect backdrop for an evening celebrating history\, culture\, and the enduring importance of protecting our water!\n\n\n\n\n\nFood: Enjoy a catered array of menu items and libations\nAttire: Cocktail with optional vintage or “ghostly” accents welcome. (Note: shoes to accommodate\nseating on the lawn are recommended.)\nEntertainment: Guests will enjoy an evening of entertainment beneath the stars\, featuring music for dancing and optional guided tours of the historic Victoria’s Black Swan Inn.
