An updated Travis County Order this week now requires the use of face coverings when doing essential activities in public. This updated Travis County Order is in effect until May 8, 2020. Click the links below for all of the current Orders in place, along with updated FAQs. Also, please continue to maintain proper physical distancing guidelines when conducting essential activities or taking a walk on our sidewalks or in the green spaces - and avoid group activities. We continue to receive inquiries asking if it is ok to have gatherings, even if proper distance is maintained - this is not allowed by way of our current Orders in place, so please continue to follow the proper guidelines. Also, continue to reach out to us if you do have questions at [email protected].

We truly have some amazing and creative talent here in Lakeway! We have already received dozens of fantastic submissions for the Parks and Recreation Department's 'Chalk Your Walk' event happening this week and through the weekend. You can still pick up some multi-colored chalk and a goodie bag for FREE at the Lakeway Activity Center (105 Cross Creek) through 5 p.m. this evening. The goodie bag will be delivered by way of a special drive-through service, so be sure to stay in your car and someone will come out to deliver your bag and chalk (limit 1 per child). Then, be sure to draw a positive message or image on your driveway or public sidewalk this weekend and send it to us by email to [email protected] or tag us on social media using @cityoflakeway. We will post those messages on our social media channels Monday, April 20. Click here for details.
