Dr. Roberto A. Galvan (1923-2026)

A video isn’t enough to capture the truly wonderful life Dr. Galvan lived. He showed dedication to his loved ones like no other, and was an outstanding lion to his community.

The San Marcos River is more than a place to float it’s home to one of the most unique ecosystems in Texas.

Fun Fact: The San Marcos River is fed by the San Marcos Springs, one of the largest spring systems in the state, keeping the water a refreshing 72°F year-round!

When you float with us, remember to pack out what you pack in and help keep this incredible river healthy for generations to come.
