Next Board of Directors Meeting: October 28, 2026 @ 6:00 p.m. Room 105A in Main Bldg
9.4.2026 Update
Here is where everything stands as of Friday, September 4, 2026:
Community Center
• This Week: Materials were delivered to the site, layouts were finalized, and framing on the walls has officially begun! Concrete teams also successfully completed the structural base for the new equipment shed.
• Next Week: Framing will wrap up completely for the main building. Concrete teams will be back to pour the equipment shed pad and handle re-pouring updates at the back patio. Masonry work (CMU blocks) will also start up for the equipment shed once the concrete sets.
Swimming Pool & Equipment Shed
• This Week: Underground plumbing and electrical installations moved forward smoothly. The engineer has officially passed our inspections, and we are currently pending final city review.
• Next Week: Get ready for a major milestone—crews are scheduled to shoot the gunite structure for the pool and wrap up the underground plumbing connections at the equipment shed.
Tennis & Pickleball Courts
• This Week: Fence installation around the perimeter of the courts has officially commenced. Additionally, Austin Energy completed their onsite Civil Pre-Construction walk to coordinate permanent power to the facility.
• Next Week: The fencing work will be finalized, and the structural headers for the facility gates will be installed. Electrical teams will also begin pulling conduit and mounting the boxes for our brand-new court lighting system.
Everything is moving along to bring these 40-year-old facilities into a beautiful new era for Tanglewood Forest. Thank you for your continued patience as we build a better space for all of our families to enjoy!

04.24.2026 WHAT'S HAPPENING AT oUR TENNIS COURTS?
After dealing with rain delays, the soil injections have finally been completed! We have a 72-hour cure period and then mandatory soil testing can begin. Results of the tests should be back the first week of May so we can proceed with the pad sites.
04.17.26 game changer!
Game Changer!
Check out these renderings of the new tennis courts being constructed at Tanglewood Park as part of the Capital Improvement Projects! The first rendering illustrates the courts during daylight hours, and the second rendering illustrates the courts during nighttime hours with the new “Tweener” lighting system that will be at the top of the fencing surrounding the courts. The courts will be reorientated to North/South, and (for all you dinkers and bangers out there) one court will have pickleball striping!
04.14.26 Sneak peek of the pool renderings
Following is a 'sneak peek' at the vision for the new pool at Tanglewood Forest Limited District!
While these renderings are just 3D 'illustrations' to help us visualize the vibe—and don't show every tiny technical detail or final material choice -- and aren’t to scale -- we are absolutely in for the direction it’s heading!
So much has changed since the last pool was built 40 years ago! There are a lot more do’s and don’ts in 2026! But with guidance from the City of Austin and our professional contractors, we are confident we are headed for a great splash-down!
04.13.26 A new flag is raised at the construction Site
Tanglewood Forest Limited District Board past-president Ron Peterson raised a new flag at the recreational complex today, while current board member, Steve Gerlofs, looked on! It might still be a construction zone, but seeing the flag fly high at the new recreational complex makes all the hard work feel worth it. A little daily inspiration as this space continues to be transformed into a hub for all of us to enjoy!
04/10/2026 Checking off critical site preparation and saftey requirements!
03.23.26 A POOL OF CONCRETE! Not exactly what we want to swim in just yet, but definitely forward progress!
03.17.26 Breaking it down to build it up! Demolition continues!
02.26.2026 End of an Era, Beginning of a Legacy
Take a good look .... because tomorrow everything changes! For 40 years, this pool has been the heart of our summers! In less than 24 hours we begin clearing the way for a brand-new Community Center and Recreational Complex! (Pictured are Past TFLD Board President Ron Peterson, Current Board President Brian Whelan and Current Board Member Mike Canty.)
