One of Austin's best city parks sits just minutes west of downtown in the Old West Austin neighborhood! The Friends of West Austin Park is a non-profit organization comprised of neighborhood volunteers who share your love for our park. We work in close cooperation with the Austin Parks and Recreation Department (PARD), Austin Parks Foundation (APF), OWANA and neighbors like you. If you are looking for ways to make our park even better, we are always seeking volunteers and would love to hear from you.
