DEAR TEXAS EX,

PEOPLE ARE TALKING“Beyond Group Travel is one of the best organized travel agencies that my wife and I have ever traveled with. They always make sure that every Flying Longhorn has a great experience. Linda and Cindy are extremely experienced and dedicated to making sure your trip meets all your expectations and needs. My wife and I have traveled with them on several occasions with the Flying Longhorns and we are always excited when we see that Beyond Group Travel is the host. Hook ‘em” — Michael & Shari LopezWhat truly influenced me most was that it was run by Beyond Group Travel, and having traveled with this group before, I know that every detail in the trip would be expertly planned. I knew ahead of tome that it would be a wonderful trip.” — Kathleen Kinney“I again wanted to thank you for a truly marvelous weekend. Everything was perfect. Transportation, housing, tours (I could spend many days at each), fellow travelers, food, and, of course, the game! I can only partially imagine all the detailed work you and your staff (also great!) put in to make this run like clockwork.” — AJ Polhill

We are truly excited to offer this weekend program in San Francisco that is combined with our football matchup against University of California at Berkeley.

Our friends at Beyond Group Travel have prepared a fabulous itinerary for you with beautiful accommodations at the luxury Omni San Francisco.

Every traveler’s participation in the Texas Exes Flying Longhorns travel program helps to further the Association’s core purpose: to be an independent voice that champions The University of Texas at Austin and to organize alumni and friends into a formidable network to change the world. The association is recognized as indispensable to the UT family, connecting and engaging supporters with each other and UT. We do so through a wide array of programs, among which are scholarships to deserving UT students; student leadership development, career resources and worldwide networking; and awards to alumni professors and students.

Join us as we support our Longhorns as they face off against the Golden Bears in this celebrated gridiron matchup! Contact Mrs. Janice Garcia at (800) 594-3900 or (512) 840-5626 with questions and to register.
