Join Friends of the Lost Pines State Parks for their annual Picnic in the Park at Buescher State Park!
Come out to the covered Picnic Pavilion for food and fellowship with Friends!
The Picnic Pavilion is located in the Lakeview Camp loop of Buescher State Park.
Let's Taco'bout the Friends of the Lost Pines and Bastrop & Buescher State Parks! New this year: on the menu is walking tacos! Bring an appetizer, side dish, dessert or just yourself and enjoy a beautiful and relaxing time under the cottonwoods, oaks, elms and dripping spanish moss! After taco time, learn about the Friends group, hear what they've been up to and what future volunteer events they have coming up. Then hear from our park Superintendent about what's been happening around the parks and what projects are coming up!
Afterwards, stay for a Citizen Scientist Mothing Program from 7pm to 8pm at the Picnic Pavilion! Learn about these mysterious nighttime pollinators and let's see how many we can identify!
Accessibility: This event has two accessible parking spaces with two ADA sidewalks to leading into the Picnic Pavilion. The Mothing event will be at the accessible Picnic Pavilion as well.
This event is free to the public. No entrance fee required during event.
