SUMMARY:Issues & Eggs: 6th Street’s Next Act
DESCRIPTION:6th Street has long carried the brand of downtown Austin as a place of iconic nightlife and the epicenter of the live music capital of the world.

SUMMARY:Bird Walk With Travis Audubon
DESCRIPTION:Join Rachel Zierzow and TTC staff\, Jonatan Salinas\, to find birds and observe their behavior on the new section of the Butler Trail\, the Holly Trailhead\, historically part of the decommissioned Holly Power Plant at Festival Beach. Recently planted native trees\, shrubs\, wildflowers\, and natural spring water dominate the landscape and provide excellent habitats for many different species of birds. As TTC restores this new section of the trail\, we will see a change of birds\, so you’ll want to come on this monthly walk. \nThis bird walk is ideal for beginners\, but all levels are welcome. We have binoculars to lend to anyone that doesn’t have a pair. Our walk will total 1-2 miles in about 3 hours\, making our way through the Holly Trail and adjacent to Lady Bird Lake to listen to and look for resident birds\, migrants\, and flyovers. The terrain is mostly flat (dissolved gravel trail and sidewalks) and there is ADA accessibility at the Holly Trail Overlook.  In winter\, we will stop at the Holly Trail overlook section of the trail a bit to watch the waterfowl. \nRegistration is required and is limited to 10 participants. A reminder email with pertinent details will be sent before the field trip. Register HERE!

This increase will generate a dedicated revenue fund to expand access to affordable\, high-quality childcare\, afterschool\, and summer programs in the County. \nThe County is undergoing a transitional phase to expand internal resources and infrastructure necessary to administer this new Voter Approved Child Care and Out of School Time fund. In addition\, HHS is organizing opportunities for community input to inform the design and implementation of this fund. Community input is essential to strengthening these systems and ensuring this fund reflects the unique needs of families\, children\, and caregivers in Travis County. \nHHS has three upcoming in-person Community Listening Sessions and one virtual session. These sessions will provide a platform for community members to share their perspectives and experiences about our local childcare and out-of-school time systems. During these sessions\, the County will: \n\nShare updates and tentative timelines;\nShare plans for a future Community Advisory Council; and\nGather community input to shape the fund’s design and future use\n\nFood and Spanish interpretation will be available at each of our in-person Community Listening Sessions listed below. \nWhen:Tuesday\, March 11th from 5:30 – 7:30pm\nWhere: Del Valle – Travis County Community Center – 3518 FM 973; Del Valle\, TX 78617 \nWhen: Saturday\, March 29th from 10:30am – 12:30pm\nWhere: Carver Branch Library – 1161 Angelina Street; Austin\, TX 78702 \nWhen:  Saturday\, April 12th from 10:00am – 12:00pm\nWhere: Manor – Travis County Community Center – 600 W. Carrie Manor St; Austin\, TX 78653 \nRSVP here for one of the in-person community input sessions. \n** RSVP is not necessary for you to attend; it simply allows us to plan to have enough food for everyone attending. \nHHS will also host a virtual Community Listening session for community members that are unable to attend in-person.
