An important source of water in New Braunfels is the Guadalupe River. Help keep our waterways safe by disposing of trash & chemicals responsibly, avoiding fertilizers & herbicides, & cleaning up pet waste! #ValueWater

Earlier this week we asked if you knew where your drinking water came from. For many of us in South Central Texas, the answer is underground aquifers including the Edwards & Trinity Aquifers. Responsible consumption is critical to keep these aquifers from drying up. #ValueWater
