Milwood Neighborhood Assoc.

Let’s celebrate summer, our pool & great neighbors at Balcones’ Potluck Pool Party
Saturday, May 31 from 2 to 4pm at Balcones Pool, 12017 Amherst Dr, Austin, TX 78759.

We welcome everyone to bring a main dish, side or dessert to help us make this a complete community gathering!  Please bring your own water bottles or drinks of choice (no glass).

Please RSVP HERE so we can plan accordingly.

Admission to Balcones Pool is ALWAYS FREE to all!

Please note that we will reschedule in the event of rain so check back or expect an email to the address you RSVPed with.

So come on out, bring a dish, meet your fellow neighbors, make friends with your soon to be swim team and swim lesson mates!

Swim Lesson Registration for Balcones Pool is ALSO Open! The Swim Lessons are in 2 week groups on every Tues, Wed, Thurs, Fri for 30 minutes and only $57! Then you can stay and practice what you learn before and after! A great way to get your kids swimming!

And Balcones Barracudas Swim Team is a GREAT way to help become a proficient swimmer, all you have to do to join is be able to get across the pool, it doesn’t have to look good. Only $80 for the summer. Very relaxed and fun!

We succeeded in raising almost $600 for the Park while also diverting 3 carloads, 1 large trailer and 1 van of styrofoam
plus almost 2 tons of oil, paint, batteries, etc!

Thank you to Karl Hanson with H&H Design and Build for sponsoring this event & providing the manpower, trailer & van!

Thanks also to our neighbor volunteers: Carolyn, Will, Dale, Bethany, Michael, Matt, Ashley, Cameron, Donna, Andy, Max, William, Sam, Meg, and more! And especially Bill who stepped in last minute to bring a large trailer to transport a FULL load of Styrofoam!

Start gathering those dead batteries, used oil and oil filters, leftover latex paint cans, and antifreeze PLUS clean/dry styrofoam and plastic film!

Because Milwood Neighborhood Association will be collecting Batteries, Oil, Latex Paint, Antifreeze, Styrofoam and Plastic Film on Saturday, May 17th, 2025 from 8:30-9:30am at St. Stephens Baptist Church (Cassady/Amherst/Brigadoon) at the back parking lot.

We must close at 9:30am or earlier if we fill up to be able to get the materials to the City site and unloaded there in time to meet our scheduled drop off time.

We need volunteers to pull this event off, please consider donating an hour or two of your time: Sign up HERE

A Big Thanks to the Scout Troop 421 and Pack 90 for their wonderful job cleaning up the trail!  They collected more than 600 gallons of trash on Saturday and made a huge difference in the appearance of our park’s trail!

Thanks to Miles Schulze, Beverly Schulze and Erik Harris for the leadership on this too!
