LAKE TRAVIS READS !

What if everyone in the Lake Travis area read the same book at the same time, and came together to talk about it? That is the idea behind the “One Book, One Community” program that was created by the Center for the Book in Washington, D.C. The Friends of Bee Cave Public Library, Friends of Lake Travis Community Library, and Friends of the Spicewood Community Library have joined with the Lake Travis School District, the Lake Travis Chamber of Commerce, and the local Barnes & Noble Bookstore to sponsor “Lake Travis Reads". Voting for Lake Travis Reads will take place between April 15th and 30th; participants will be asked to select one book out of five titles for the community to read. Voting locations will be online and at the following ballot locations: Bee Cave Public Library, Lake Travis Community Library, Spicewood Community Library, Lake Travis High School, and Barnes & Noble. The kickoff for Lake Travis Reads will be on Thursday, May 15th at 7 PM at the Hill Country Galleria outdoor amphitheater where the winning book will be announced. Stay tuned for more information!... is a One Book, One Community Program sponsored by the Spicewood Community, the Bee Cave Library and the Lakeway Library.   Between now and April 30, the the community will vote on which book to read.
