The Texas Nature and Environmental Photographers (TexNEP) organization holds its next meeting on the evening of Tuesday, June 23, 2026 at 6:30 pm at South Texas College, HSP Campus Building A 4th Floor room 401. Please use the visitors parking areas in the south and east of the building to avoid a ticket.

TexNEP turns 25 years in July 2026! Please submit photos to be included in a commemorative slide show to be shown at the July meeting. Send up to six nature-related photos to our leader, Ruth Hoyt, at ruthhoyt@gmail.com. Please put "TexNEP 25 years” in the subject line. If you have photos of TexNEP members photographing in the field, socializing at one of our field trips, or simply photos of any of our members, please feel free to add them to your six nature-related photos. If you like, you can send them via email as mentioned above, or send them to Ruth via WeTransfer, a free online service to share large files. Link for WeTransfer is below. Please send photos to Ruth as quickly as possible so she has time to arrange them in a slide show prior to the July meeting. Think of June 30 as a soft deadline; Ruth will accept and accommodate photos sent in a little bit later.

An in-person field trip for paid members is planned for the weekend after the meeting.

Date: to be discussed in the meeting,

Place: to be discussed in the meeting.
