AREA HISTORY In 2009, SPJST ENC began leasing Cooper Farm from LCRA and began upgrading the property with new cabins and activities. With support from SPJST and under a long-term lease agreement with LCRA, Camp Kubena officially opened in 2010, with its first full year of operations in 2011. Since then, the facility has provided nature-based training and recreational activities for a variety of groups, including fraternal organizations, religious groups, schools, civic organizations, and environmental groups. Camp Kubena was the culmination of a 40-year dream of establishing a family-oriented educational and nature center focused on inspiring individuals to develop a personal relationship with the outdoors and become responsible, active members of the community.
