The San Marcos River's ecosystem could be in danger, and that's prompted some local activists to go to work to save it. Bobcat Update's Aubrey Doherty has more on the story.
The spring-fed San Marcos River has water so pure you can drink it and jumping in the river on graduation day is a Texas State tradition. The river has played a key role in the city's history. Ancient artifacts can be found in its waters, and endangered species depend on those waters for survival. But there's concern about the potential impact of demolishing what's called Cape's Dam. The San Marcos River Foundation wants local residents to be aware of the issue. The foundation recently hosted the Lost River Film Fest.

The festival combines indie-cinema with global-issue-awareness and includes workshops, events, parties, and concerts.
