There is a small rondy at La Vernia (near San Antonio) in two weeks (April 27-29). Information is on the Texian Legacy website. From the website:
"Buckskinners and Texas History reenactors are invited to the Boyd Harrison Memorial combined event April 27 - 29. Boyd was a dedicated living historian and camped with both groups. Each group will have a separate period camp, demonstrating camp life and period activities. Boyd's family, fellow teachers and students will be special guests Saturday to see this facet of Boyd's life. The campsite is on 800 acres near Cibolo Creek near La Vernia, and period dress and gear is required. Thursday 26th: open for setup, informal shooting matches. Friday & Saturday lots of competitions & round robin trading, Saturday potluck shared with guests, Sunday informal competitions & decamp. Fees: Rendezvous competitors $15, family $20, reenactor camp fee $10. No added fees for traders / sutlers, please let your favorite outfit know. Lots more info and a map available from Joe Wolf 830-935-3121 or [email protected] ...Ask about the shooting events, too much to detail here. This event rating is 3 1/2."
For other events, contact Joe Wolf above, or Fritztown Free Trappers. For Texas Republic era reenactments statewide, see the calander at Texian Legacy Association.
Hope that this helps. I might have more info if you tell me what you are looking for.

Sounds like the type of thing tha interests me, I don't have the period equipment, would like to visit one of these events and see more for myself. Thanks for any information that you can provide.
I can just point you in some directions.
San Jacinto is next weekend, biggest 1830's reenactment in Texas. Near Houston, so may be out of the way for you. (April 21, big crowd. Camps close about 2:00 to prepare for battle at 3:00.)
Did a search of Fritztown and came across this at [url] http://buckskinning.org/texasfreetrappers.htm[/url]
"Muzzleloaders! - Looking for a group that has monthly shoots ?
The White Smoke Brigade is new muzzleloading group in the Central Texas area. They have monthly rifle and pistol matches.
Matches will he held at ranges from 10 to 100 yards.
Matches are held on private land on the 2nd Saturday of the month. Matches begin at 9am.
There will also be a sub-group, The Texas Free Trappers, that will organize mountain man rendezvous once or twice a year.
The event fee is $10.00.
For more information
Contact Joe Wolf at 830-935-3121 any time
Images from past shoots"
Joe W. is organizing this rondy in two weeks (La Vernia). I think that Saturday is "open to the public day" I plan to camp in the Texas Rev camp, call Joe get details, stop by and say Hi.
After San Jack the Texas Rev groups pretty much shut down until October. The revolution lasted from Gonzales in October 1835 to San Jacinto in April 1836, so fortunatly we do not have to fight through the summer. Good thing - too hot.
