AUSTIN, Texas — Although Hurricane Beryl has weakened significantly and moved out of Texas, the destruction it left will take weeks to clean up. Many people have been forced out of their homes for the time being.
However, Texas Parks and Wildlife Department has stepped up to help those who had to evacuate because of the storm.
TPWD will provide free Texas state park campsites outside the affected area to evacuees fleeing the storm. Evacuees can check the Texas State Parks Alert Map to see which sites are open for visitors. At this time, free entry applies to campsites only and does not include day-use sites, cabins or lodges.
TPWD will maintain normal state park rules and regulations for evacuees and their animals. Please visit the Texas Register website for the full list.
