The Kemmerer Family, owners of Comanche Trace Ranch & Golf Club, were pleased to make a charitable gift of $25,000 this week to The Museum of Western Art, through The Kemmerer Family Foundation.


Comanche Trace President Trevor Hyde, who presented the check December 18 said, “We are extremely pleased to present this gift on behalf of The Kemmerer Family Foundation and Comanche Trace, to an institution that contributes so much to this community and the art community.”


Hyde said The Kemmerer Family has a strong belief in supporting organizations that have a direct impact on the local community. The Kemmerers’ have supported other Kerrville organizations in the past and plan to continue their support in the future.


Hyde said. “It was important to Comanche Trace and its ownership to select organizations where the funds will be used for the benefit of the local community.” Comanche Trace has a longstanding history with The Museum through its former owner, Bobby Shelton. Shelton was a founder of The Museum, and was instrumental in establishing Round Up, the annual Spring fundraiser.


The Museum of Western Art is one example of local opportunities where Comanche Trace staff, members and residents volunteer their time and give back to their community.
