Our Chapter

Serving Austin, Colorado, Fayette, Lee and Washington counties, the Gideon Lincecum chapter, with more than 120 members, is named after an early naturalist who spent many years exploring Texas and researching and writing about its flora and fauna. He was renowned for his in-depth studies of ants. 

We are one of the most active chapters in the state, continuing our education in “all things Texas nature,” teaching people of all ages about our natural resources, and working at myriad service projects. Learn more about what we do.

Events

From preserving pollinator habitats to creating nature-based educational programs, GLC-TMN members are dedicated to serving our South Central Texas ecoregions and communities.

Chapter Meetings

Chapter meetings are held beginning at 9:30 a.m. on the third Saturday of odd months. Meeting location rotates among chapter counties. Check our calendar for the location of each meeting. Chapter business meetings are followed by an advanced training presentation. The public is invited to attend.
