Community Outreach means many things to Zilker Boats.
We are dedicated to providing under funded youth organizations. We feel educating children about nature through and experintial journey down Barton Creek is an exciting way to inspire youth and environmental leaders of the future.
Zilker Park Boat Rentals has a long history of providing quality recreational experiences to groups that have little or no money in their budgets for fun activities.
We are also committed to educating newcomer’s to Austin who may not be familiar with the jewel of Austin, Barton Creek, and its historical and environmental value to our city.
