Big Bend National Park

The Texas National Guard will return to Big Bend National Park to offer another round of Covid-19 vaccines and tests. The Guard will be at Panther Junction Visitor Center on Saturday, July 10 from 8:00 AM - 4:30 PM. If you got your first of either of the two dose vaccines here a month ago, this is your opportunity for your second dose. If you want a Covid or antibody test they will also have those available. 

They will be offering the same services at the Terlingua Fire & EMS  building on July 11. 

Even if you don't need a vaccine or a test, stop by and thank the guardsmen. It took quite an effort to bring them out to our rural, isolated area. We are very grateful to the team and their captain for their efforts to keep us all safe.
