Welcome to Travis Landing!

Travis Landing is a small neighborhood located along the southern shores of Lake Travis. Through many years this land on the winding Colorado River was the home of the *Comanche and other early native Americans. Completion of the Mansfield Dam in the 1940's created Lake Travis and Hudson Bend, named after Wiley Hudson, who built a ranch home in the area in the 1800's. Picture of entrance to Travis Landing

In 1943, Joe and Margaret Cocke purchased 56 acres which, in 1960, was subdivided as "Travis Landing." The Cocke Family established a lake residence in 1947. The Cocke Horse Farms held annual Hunter and Jumper shows from 1949 to 1951. Participants came from near and far to enjoy the shows as well as the beauty of Lake Travis.

About the Entrance to Travis Landing

In 1951, Lake Travis reached the historical low of 614.19 feet. A huge tree floated ashore and was placed at the entrance to Travis Landing, where it rested until 2003. Due to decay, the entrance was redesigned in 2003. The new design was created by Ralph White, who was designated by the 78th Texas Legislature as the Texas State Artist of 2003. A new log, donated from the Travis Landing property of Robert and Aleen Woodard, was placed atop the new entrance.

Updates

Cothran Lawsuit Update - Motions for Summary Judgment Granted

Judge Stephen Yelenosky has granted our motions for summary judgment that were heard on Monday, June 8, 2009. The No Evidence Motion for Summary Judgment as to civil conspiracy and tortuous interference with business relations and tortuous interference with an existing contract was granted as well as the Motion for Summary Judgment as to trespass.

This is great news. It does not mean the lawsuit is over but it is a great step forward. We will keep you posted here on the website as to further developments.

Park Trees Need Volunteers for Watering

A big thanks goes to everyone that volunteered to help water our new trees in the big park. Go to the parks page to see the new list for the 2009 - 2010 Tree Watering Schedule as it stands so far. Several folks signed up but we are still in need of volunteers for the following months:

2009
July and October

2010
January and May

As mentioned in the last newsletter, we have set up a good watering system to make watering easy. A water meter, 12V pump and a long hose have been added to tanks on a trailer, so all you have to do is pick it up, fill it up and water. It takes about 2 hours, once a week (unless it rains). You will be shown how to use the watering system.

Please contact Nancy Dobson at 266-8615 if you can help out.
