Serving San Antonio Schools

H. E. Butt Foundation Outdoor School partners with San Antonio schools, providing transformative and educational 3-day, 2-night outdoor experiences, each set within the rugged beauty of the Texas Hill Country. Beneath steep canyon bluffs carved by the beautiful Frio River, we make a variety of retreat campsites available to qualified groups at no cost. Each self-contained camping site affords discovery, adventure, hospitality, and renewal for Texas communities.
