Thanks to the generosity of our neighbors, sponsors, and Austin Parks Foundation, Friends of Patterson Park raised an amazing $9,776 during our 2023 Amplify Austin campaign. We pooled the support of 58 individual donors, eight sponsors totaling $6,276, in-kind donations by Worley Printing, and a $3,500 match from Austin Parks Foundation for a final total of $9,776 raised. This funding will support our mission of building a stronger community and making our park a more welcoming place for ALL! Thank you, friends and neighbors!

Kick Off Party

Our Amplify kick off party on March 9th was a blast! We rescheduled due to weather, and got a beautiful day to enjoy ice cream at the playground. It is truly a joy being part of this park community, and we love bringing neighbors together at the park! We are so grateful for the support of the partners, neighbors and volunteers that make it all possible.

What’s next?

We have a lot planned for the next few weeks! Our annual Egg Hunt is on Saturday, April 8, we’re celebrating the opening day of the swim season at Patterson Pool on June 6, and celebrating Pride Month at the Patterson Pride Picnic on June 9.
