What if everyone in the Lake Travis area read the same book at the same time, and came together to talk about it?  This 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 are joining together to sponsor “Lake Travis Reads” and we need your help!

Through reading, the community connects.  There is interest in doing this here and if we start now, we could host an event in the Fall. For our community, Lake Travis ISD seems to be the central connector between Lakeway, Hills of Lakeway, Bee Cave, part of Spicewood and other unincorporated areas.  Lake Travis has a widespread demographic base, so having broad community support and choosing the right book will be important.

Thank you for your consideration. Help us spread the word and get involved.

Enthusiastically,
