Lake Travis Lifestyle Weekend Roundup: August 5-7, 2016

Written by Todd Hower | August 5, 2016

LTL Weekend Roundup August 5 2016

Happy Friday! We’ve searched out the best events in and around the Lake Travis area so you don’t have to.

Along with all the events happening around the lake, it’s a great weekend to go shopping! This weekend is Sales Tax Holiday from August 5-7. The law exempts most clothing, footwear, school supplies and backpacks priced under $100 from sales and use taxes.

If your tax-free shopping brings you closer to downtown, be sure to check out the 3rd Annual Austin Duck Derby on Saturday or the 6th Annual Austin Splash Mob on Sunday.
