Friends of McAllister Park (FOMP) is an all-volunteer nonprofit organization working for the benefit of McAllister Park and its visitors. We work closely with the City of San Antonio Parks and Recreation Department to ensure the park will endure as natural open space, providing the citizens of San Antonio a refuge from the sights and sounds of city life. The group advocates for the preservation of the park’s natural features and beauty and accomplishes this through the dynamic participation of its members and volunteers. Join us!
