About Friends of Copperfield Nature Trails
The Friends of Copperfield Nature Trails is an all volunteer group to promote and improve the trails, greenbelt, and park surrounding our Copperfield neighborhood. Our group is working with City of Austin Parks Department, Austin Parks Foundation, and Keep Austin Beautiful to organize clean ups and workdays. We recently renewed our adoption commitment through the Keep Austin Beautiful/City of Austin Watershed's "Adopt-a-Creek" program. We will be holding periodic cleanups and encouraging our community to be a litter free neighborhood. Also, we have a Adopt a Park Partnership Agreement with City of Austin Parks Department. This partnership allows us to coordinate trail improvements with the Parks Department to open the area and make it accessible and enjoyable for the neighborhood.
Many neighbors and friends volunteer with us. A few volunteers have accepted additional responsibilities:
Coordinator & Parks Dept Contact – Alice Penney
Secretary & Keep Austin Beautiful Contact – Beth Mobley
Treasurer – Shelly Bruhn
Website – Jeremy Linton
Grant Writer & Editor – Linda Jones
Trails Facilitator – Michael McClendon
More volunteers are always welcome! Also, we can accept tax-deductible donations through our account with Austin Parks Foundation. Click the Donation Form.pdf file attachment at the bottom of the page and be sure to write "copperfield" on your check.
About the Copperfield Neighborhood
Our Copperfield neighborhood in northeast Austin features quiet streets, mature trees, and a greenbelt along Walnut Creek. We're close to high-tech companies, Tech Ridge shopping center, and have easy access to downtown via Dessau/Cameron Road or IH-35. Although in the City of Austin, Copperfield students go to Pflugerville Independent Schools. Our neighborhood contains a Pflugerville ISD elementary school, and is within a few minutes drive to the middle and high schools. Electric utilities, water and wastewater are provided by the City of Austin, and gas service comes from Atmos Energy.
