Kerrville Eclipse Festival

We are thrilled to announce that NASA will livestream the eclipse with us in the park. NASA chose only three cities in the United States to livestream the eclipse, and we are honored to be one of them. Totality starts at 1:27 p.m. and grounds will open Monday morning. Get Outdoors. Be Active. Play.
