    Austin Sierra Club Outings

     

    Details: Join the Austin Sierra Club for our annual Spring picnic at Pease Park. Bring a favorite dish (and serving utensil if needed) to share. Those with special diets may bring their own meal. There will not be a formal meeting, just a great meal with like-minded folks and plenty of visiting and conversation. Everyone is welcome, members and guests allowed. 

     We will supply recycleware, ice, and water--or bring your own. Pease Park prohibits glass containers and styrofoam; alcoholic beverages are permitted in the picnic area but must be in cans.

    Parking is limited - most spots are available along the street in the 1500 block of Parkway. Consider biking, carpooling, or taking Cap Metro to the event. If you are driving and don't mind extra exercise, consider parking in the 2200 block of Parkway or at House Park (1301 Shoal Creek Blvd). https://peasepark.org/parking
