In the heart of the Texas Hill Country River Region lies the secluded oasis of Concan. Known for it’s rolling hills, Cypress trees (some of the largest in Texas) and the summertime draw of the region’s three crystal-clear rivers, visitors will be delighted to find the magic that awaits them on December 2.
Get moving early in the morning at the Frio River Run and Golf Tournament where you can try your hand at a round of golf on the 72-par championship course or run a 5K, 10K or half marathon race, beginning at 7:30 a.m. Food, drinks and a discounted golf tournament entry is included in race registration, and proceeds benefit Operation Comfort, giving visitors an opportunity to give back to wounded troops while they’re in town.
Then, head over to the Holiday River Road Market Fest at Andy’s on River Road, open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Celebrate the season while visiting with Santa and enjoying the treasure troves of market pop-up shops for gift giving, food vendors, live music and more.
Plus, this year, the Holiday River Road Market Fest will be enchanting visitors and locals alike with a special ice skating rink.
Made from synthetic ice, skaters will glide to and fro in a rink that practically transports them to Rockefeller Center, without the brisk temperatures and need for a bulky winter coat.
Skates are included with the cost of each session, making it easy to create lasting memories with those that matter most.
End the night with a show-stopping performance by Tracy Byrd at House Pasture Cattle Company. The “Keeper of the Stars” singer will entertain guests as they enjoy House Pasture’s full bar and restaurant.
The first weekend in December is one you’ll want to spend in Concan. Make a weekend out of the adventure with rental cabins, RV hook-ups and tent camping sites available in addition to luxurious cabin/vacation-rental properties. Plan your visit now at VisitUvaldeCounty.com.
