The Pecan Street Festival: Escape the Lake Travis Area Bubble

Written by Todd Hower | May 1, 2014

Beautiful scenery, active lifestyle opportunities, great schools and great communities are all great reasons to live in the Lake Travis area. Proximity to one of the most vibrant downtowns in the country with access to all the culture and events is an added bonus.

This weekend, twenty-four blocks of 6th Street will be transformed into The Pecan Street Fall Festival.

This is one of the longest running festivals (30+ years) and a Top 5 Austin Event.

We know that sometimes it’s hard to leave the Lake Travis area, but we wanted to be sure and tell you about it in case you feel like escaping our beautiful bubble by heading for downtown Austin this weekend. I promise we’ll still be here when you get back.

Run the Ranch: 5K and Kids Fun Run in Steiner Ranch

Written by Emily O'Shaughnessy | March 26, 2014

If you’re looking for something active and fun to do as a family this weekend it’s not too late to sign up to Run the Ranch on Sunday, March 30^th.

Run the Ranch, hosted by Hill Country Bible Church, is a 5K and Kids Fun Run that takes place at the Towne Square Community Center in Steiner Ranch.

The Kids Fun Run starts at 10am, with the 5K beginning right afterwards.

This is a wonderful run right here in the Lake Travis area. As far as road races go, Run the Ranch is convenient with minimal hassle. No crazy early alarm clocks and no driving to downtown Austin at the crack of dawn. But there’s plenty of excitement in the air and generous sponsors to ensure the event is a success.
