Living the Lake Travis Lifestyle

The Lake Travis Lifestyle includes a variety of attitudes and values from a variety of people. Lifestyle choices in the area are many — from the neighborhood you live in and how you raise your children to choices about your health and the well-being of others in our community.

Many of us are influenced by our surroundings. Here in the Lake Travis area, we have development, traffic, and water management issues that affect our lifestyle.

Everything from articles that are a little more personal — and sometimes more humorous than others — to creating awareness about traffic and water conservation, this is where you'll tap into the heart of Lake Travis Lifestyle.

By Way of LA: Lake Travis Resident Alison Watters Gives Back with Gratitude

Written by Cathy Hale | November 14, 2018

When it comes to giving back to the Lake Travis community, Alison Watters proves you don’t have to be from Texas to live local and give locally. This Los Angeles transplant hit the ground running when she and her family moved to Lakeway in 2014, and she hasn’t slowed down for a minute. She might sit down for an early-morning cup of coffee, but maybe not …

If Ali looks familiar, that’s because you’ve seen her smiling face at CC4C (Cheyanna’s Champions 4 Children) fun runs at Hill Country Galleria or perhaps at Lakeway Elementary fundraisers a few years ago. Whether she’s running a registration table in tennis shoes or an evening gown, Ali’s mantra is gratitude makes us joyful.

In the spirit of the holiday season, we’d like to share Ali’s story of philanthropy, because it serves as a reminder that charity starts in the heart. We all have life experiences that shape who we are today. For Ali, she knew a long time ago that helping people was just part of her DNA.

Written by Cathy Hale | October 24, 2018

That’s not enough water. We need more water. Look, water! Okay, we’ve got plenty of water.

ENOUGH WITH THE WATER!?!

As the Lake Travis area starts to deal with the aftermath of the historic flood, things look normal in some parts of the community, but other parts are still submerged. Flood victims are dealing with destroyed homes and businesses. Rain is in the forecast. Then the boil water notice happened. No matter where you turn, there’s water drama in Lake Travis.

That said, let’s have a little fun today. If you can’t laugh, you just keep crying …

How To Speak Up in Lakeway

Written by Cathy Hale | October 10, 2018

A lot is happening in Lakeway, and we know you want to get involved, so put your glossophobia aside and speak up.

Do you remember that good ole TxDOT FM620 Feasibility Study we chatted about back in 2016?

Come on. It was beyond exciting. I should know because I wrote it. Seriously, a gripping read.

What about buildings?

Yes, we mean real structures — either commercial or residential — in Lakeway.

What about wildlife?

Remember the suspension of the Trap, Transport and Process program in Lakeway?

Uh-huh.
