Travis County Parks Foundation

Who says astronomy only happens at night??

Join us for Daytime Astronomy in the Park this summer, where we’ll explore the Sun through hands-on activities for all ages. ☀️🔭

These events are free, family friendly, and come-and-go so perfect for spending a little time learning and exploring your Travis County parks. RSVP with the links in our bio!

Our nighttime astronomy programs have been super popular this summer and are currently full, but waitlists are available! Check the link in our bio for the upcoming events and registration information.

What an incredible Earth Day at Pace Bend Park! 🌎

Huge thank you to everyone who joined us! You showed up ready to work, helping clear debris left by last year’s flood and taking time to learn more about how floodplain ecosystems recover and thrive.

Your efforts made a difference, and we’re so grateful to have a community that cares this much!

The Lower Colorado Watershed Restoration and Access (WRAP) website and survey are now live!

Visit lowercoloradoWRAP.org (or link in bio) to learn more about TCPF’s collaborative work with Great Springs Project, The Trail Conservancy, and other city, county, and agency partners. Together, we’re exploring projects and programs that aim to enhance regional connectivity, ecological health, and community vitality along the lower Colorado River corridor.
WRAP will help guide the future of about 27 miles of the Colorado River from Longhorn Dam in Austin to Webberville Park in eastern Travis County.

We want to hear from you: share your memories of the river and your ideas for its future by taking the WRAP survey today and help shape what this important stretch of the river becomes.
