L O C K H A R T S T A T E P A R K PRAIRIE REMNANTS THE CIVILIAN CONSERVATION CORPS I Out of work, out of money, and out of luck. Many Americans struggled during the Great Depression of the 1930s. Hoping to combat unemployment, President Franklin D. Roosevelt established the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC), a national work program for single men between the ages of 18 and 25. Jobs in the CCC improved the American landscape and sustained the enrollees’ families back home. Enrollees planted forests, assisted with soil conservation projects, and built state and national parks. CCC “boys” earned wages and lived in military-like camps, which provided CCC men cutting wooden planks CCC men in front of the old swimming pool shelter, uniforms, food, and educational and vocational training. Would you have enlisted? CCC Company 3803 arrived in Lockhart in 1935 and built “Camp Colp” in honor of David E. Colp, a onetime Lockhart resident and the first chairman of the Texas State Parks Board. This camp was across the road from the park entrance. The young men used local lumber and stone to build dams along Clear Fork Creek, the recreation hall, the park residence, a swimming pool, water tower, water fountains, and primitive camping sites. These structures still stand today, except for the original swimming pool, which was replaced in 1974. Another work program, the Work Projects Administration (WPA), joined CCC Company 3803 to build Lockhart State Park’s 9-hole golf course. Upon completion in 1938, the course featured the highest tee box in Texas, which you can still see today. Recreation Hall under construction CCC Company 3803 at Camp Colp magine a landscape with tall grasses as far as the eye can see. Picture those grasses swaying in the Red-tailed hawk breeze and a herd of buffalo off in the distance. This is what Lockhart State Park looked like thousands of years ago. Lockhart State Park is located in the Blackland Prairie ecoregion of Texas that, prior to Anglo settlement, was dominated by bunch grasses like indiangrass, little bluestem, and eastern gamagrass. Back then, the prairie was home to buffalo, grey wolves, coyotes, birds, and small mammals. Today, the landscape looks very different due to farming, ranching, and development. Buffalo and wolves were hunted out of the area, and bunch grasses are no longer common, although they are being reintroduced. Look carefully during your visit and you may find remnants of the park’s former landscape.
TEXAS PARKS AND WILDLIFE BIRDS OF LOCKHART S T A T E P A R K A FIELD CHECKLIST 2017 Cover: Illustration of Red-shouldered Hawk by Chris Morel. INTRODUCTION L ockhart State Park is located approximately 30 miles south of Austin within the city of Lockhart in Caldwell County. The park consists of 263 acres and is located on the Clear Fork of Plum Creek. The park is situated in the Blackland Prairie ecoregion of the state, but it features a variety of landscapes that attract a great diversity of avian life. The park has built two trails that follow Clear Fork Creek (Creekview and Clear Fork Trail) and mow additional access to the creek for anglers. Explore the creek and ponds to see Green Heron, Great Blue Heron, and the occasional Black-bellied Whistling Duck. There are many grassland areas scattered throughout the park that display native grass species and provide unique habitat. Explore these areas to find typical Blackland Prairie bird species like the Scissor-tailed Flycatcher and Eastern Meadowlark. The open fields and fairways of the park are popular haunts for Painted Buntings, Eastern Bluebirds, Killdeer, and Wild Turkey. The mixed-oak forests in the park are rich in diversity, with the most common tree species being live oak, shumard oak, and eastern red cedar. Walk one of the many wooded trails (including Chisholm Trail and Rattlesnake Run) and listen close for Red-shouldered Hawks, Red-bellied Woodpeckers, and Pileated Woodpeckers. TPWD staff and volunteers compiled this checklist from records collected on eBird, which includes contributions from citizen scientists. This checklist is preliminary and will be periodically updated. Additional records are needed and contributions of sightings, even of the most common birds, can be very helpful. The organization and nomenclature of the birds listed here follow the American Ornithologist’s Union Checklist of North American Birds, 7th edition, as currently supplemented. Please help us protect the natural avian communities in our parks by refraining from using playback tapes of bird songs. Frequent use of these tapes disrupts essential territorial behavior and may lead to nest failure. Thank you for your cooperation. 1 Please help us protect the natural avian communities in our parks by refraining from using playback tapes of bird songs.

Did you know? Two New Deal work programs — the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) and the Work Projects Administration (WPA) — developed Lockhart State Park’s golf course. CCC Company 3803 cleared trees and built landscape features like foot paths and bridges. WPA workers developed the green and fairways. Their hard work, and strong local community support, made the course a reality. 4 Lockhart state park 3 a project of 5 work PROJECTS administration and civilian conservation corps 2 6 7 PARK ROAD 10 8 1 9 FM 20 Texas State Parks is a division of the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department. © 2019 Texas Parks and Wildlife Department PWD CD P4505-0047C (5/19) In accordance with Texas State Depository Law, this publication is available at the Texas State Publications Clearinghouse and/or Texas Depository Libraries.

WELCOME from Rodney Franklin, State Parks Director This year is very special for Texas State Parks: We are celebrating our 100-year anniversary in 2023. More and more Texans are discovering the beauty of State Parks and exploring the outdoors in new and adventurous ways. Our teams across the state are incredibly excited to welcome outdoor enthusiasts, especially those who have yet to discover what our parks have to offer. The variety of Texas’ lands is unmatched; from the mountains of west Texas to the Gulf shores, the Texas State Park system celebrates and preserves the natural and cultural treasures that make Texas such a special place. The 640,000-plus acres that make up the state park system are nearly as diverse as the people of Texas. Since 1923, our mission has been to help connect our visitors with the outdoors. As we honor those who have come before us, I invite a new generation to be a part of the story of the lands that connect us all. There is more to enjoy in our parks than you know, so please join us in our celebrations and activities. Every day we look for new and better ways to ensure your state parks are welcoming to every Texan, regardless of their background or experience being outside. I hope you’ll visit soon and often, while bringing your friends and family along. YOU are a natural and we’re looking forward to celebrating the 100-year anniversary of state parks with you!

Bastrop State Park unveiled an extensive new group of trails, the “Tree Army Trails,” many of which are ADA-accessible. Improvements and major repairs are planned for Indian Lodge, Tyler, Inks Lake, Cedar Hill, South Llano River, Eisenhower and several other state parks All-terrain “GRIT” wheelchairs are now available at 10 parks with more adaptive equipment on the way to help people of all abilities experience Texas State Parks.
