A Tribute to Lake Travis Area Drill Teams and Local Alumni: Cavalettes and Legacies

Written by Cathy Hale | April 27, 2017

In the Lake Travis area, football is a big deal. But there are other athletes in Lake Travis who work just as hard as our helmet-clad fellas …

Ladies, it’s time to embrace your inner dance mom, because we’re singing drill team praises today! It’s not just about kick lines, red lipstick, hairspray and sequins. It’s about teamwork, a sense of accomplishment and structure.

In Texas, drill teams are like sororities. These young women are more like tight-knit families than friends. They dedicate themselves to their craft and bettering the community. There are legacies and alumni spanning the generations.

This weekend, two Lake Travis area schools will be having their annual Spring Shows, the Vandegrift Legacies and the Lake Travis Cavalettes.

In honor of these talented young ladies and everyone who supports them, we’re taking a closer look at the Cavalettes (founded in 1981) and the Legacies (founded in 2009).

Plus, we’ve added a little tribute to former drill team members who are still cultivating a love of dance in the Lake Travis community.

Get Connected: Lake Travis Area Facebook Groups

Written by Cathy Hale | December 3, 2014

Whether you’re a fan of Facebook or not, there’s no denying the power of its connectivity. Thanks to the evolution of Facebook groups, you can now engage and connect with thousands of Lake Travis area residents in the community by joining or starting your own group.

Unlike Facebook pages that accumulate “likes,” groups are built with “members,” so they are organically interactive for smaller groups of people who use them for communications, sharing and interaction. Today’s groups also enjoy more intuitive privacy settings. (Thanks, Facebook gurus!)

Lake Travis Area Coaches Spotlight: Patrick Hinson – Lady Cavs Basketball

Written by Sean Shapiro | November 15, 2013

Patrick HinsonWhen the girls head basketball coach position at Lake Travis High School opened two years ago, Patrick Hinson didn’t apply. But when the job opened again this spring, he couldn’t pass up the opportunity.

“I didn’t want to just jump at anything,” Hinson said. “We knew we wanted to stay in the area and I was helping a great team at Pflugerville. But when it opened again, I couldn’t not try my hand at it.”

The decision paid off and after seven years as an assistant at Pflugerville – which went to the Class 5A state tournament last season – Hinson is running his own program at Lake Travis.

We caught up with the new coach earlier this week and learned what he likes about Lake Travis, on and off the court.
