His love of nature defined him.
It was contagious.
Everyone who walked with him in the woods
became a nature advocate.

Mother’s Day Walk in honor of Genie Fritz on the Texas Buckeye Trail

Mother’s Day Walk in honor of Genie Fritz on the Texas Buckeye Trail

April 24, 2025 Featured Post

Mother’s Day Walk in honor of Genie Fritz on the Texas Buckeye Trail

May 11 Sunday – 10 am to 12 pm

Ned & Genie Fritz Texas Buckeye Trail
7000 Bexar St, Dallas, TX 75215

Come hike the soft-surface (natural) trail segments of the Ned & Genie Fritz Texas Buckeye Trail to the Trinity River as part of the Ned Fritz Legacy https://nedfritz.com/ team’s tribute to Genie Fritz.

Along the 2.5 mile round-trip, view the 2nd Saturday workday team’s habitat restoration efforts. Join their efforts. https://volunteersignup.org/QREYA

This amble recreates the trail’s chapter in @Wild DFW: Explore the Amazing Nature Around Dallas-Fort Worth (Timber Press). The hike, one of the book’s 25 adventure narratives, was taken in spring with Kristi Kerr Leonard and Eileen McKee, the Fritzs’ daughter, to experience the Texas buckeye blooms.
