Wimberley Lions Launch Quarterly Community Forums
Q3 2025 Meeting: “The Wimberley Flood — Progress Since 2015 & The Road Ahead”
WIMBERLEY, Texas — The Wimberley Lions Club invites the entire community to join us for the first of four quarterly Public Forums. These special events are open to everyone — not just Lions members — and are designed to bring residents together to explore and discuss topics that matter most to our community. Hosted by the Wimberley Lions, these forums are free and open to all.
The first meeting in the series: “The Wimberley Flood—Progress Since 2015 & The Road Ahead".
The free, quarterly series, beginning Tuesday, Sept. 2 from 6 p.m. To 7 p.m. in Wimberley's Community Center, will bring together local leaders, experts, and residents for open discussion, education, and planning for the future of Wimberley citizens.
A panel of speakers will reflect on lessons learned, examine how emergency services have evolved, review Hays County’s plans for disaster preparedness, and discuss what still needs to be done to protect residents and property from future natural disasters.
Panelists
--Mike Jones, Director of Hays County Emergency Services
--Rebecca Minnick, Mayor Pro Tem of Wimberley
--Jeff Rasco, Mayor of Woodcreek
--Ken Strange of the Wimberley EMS
--Chris Robbins of the Wimberley Fire Department
--Dr. Patrick Cox, historian and master of ceremonies
These panelists represent local emergency services, Hays County, and those who have been directly involved in local recovery and preparedness efforts.
Lions will provide guests a handout summarizing the historic 2015 flood that forever changed the town. Audience members will have the opportunity to submit written questions and share their perspectives before the event.
