The abundance of wild game brings avid sportsman into the community for seasonal hunts and fishing.
An often seen slogan is "Hereford's Home - Hunter's Haven".
The school's Mason Puncher sports teams enjoy the consistent support of the entire population, and the annual Tennis Tournament host participants and enthusiasts from far and wide. Many of the games are played on private courts at homes and on ranches in the area, as well as at the schools and on the "courthouse square".
Weekly cattle auctions are of interest to the curious as well as the real life cowboys from the many working ranches in Mason and surrounding counties.
The monthly "Mason Country Opry", held in one of the longest continuously operating movie houses in the state, enjoys a large and enthusiastic audience of country music fans. Mason was home to Fred Gipson, most well-known as the author of "Old Yeller", and the bronze of Old Yeller and Arlis may be seen in front of the library on Post Hill Street. We invite you to visit restored Fort Mason (1851-1869), "antiques and collectibles" shops, see and learn about Mason County topaz (the Texas Gemstone) and enjoy all the history of the area.
Canoeing, kayaking and fishing on the Llano River is fun for all the family. Great choices of Bed and Breakfast accommodations are located on the river and nearby.
If you are a golfer, or want RV hookups among beautiful oak and pecan trees, check out Mason City Park. You may choose to go for a nice drive in the country to see James River Bat Cave which is a favorite of visitors certain times of the year. Heritage Park, just off the "square", is the venue for outdoor spring and summer concerts.
Several Texas wineries are within easy driving distance from Mason, as well as historic buildings and the Wildflower Farm in Fredericksburg. Texas Hill Country road right-of-ways welcome an array of beautiful bluebonnets, Indian paintbrush and other colorful wildflowers in the spring. Mason is on the much traveled "Bluebonnet Trail" and enjoys repeat and first time visitors each year. Check us out, and stay a while! If "big city" shopping and sites interest you - drive two hours to Austin, San Antonio or San Angelo.
Mason is a small town of friendly folks who want to make you feel at home. Y'all come - you will be glad you did!
