CITY OF LAKEWAY FOURTH OF JULY CELEBRATION

"Flying High – The Red, White and Blue"

The City of Lakeway’s Fourth of July Theme, "Flying High – The Red, White and Blue" will come to life in a very real way. The City is being honored with a flyover by four F-16 Fighter Jets courtesy of the United States Airforce. The jets will come in over Mansfield Dam and fly over Lakeway City Park at 5:35 p.m. Flying at an altitude of 1,000 feet, they will be visible from many open locations within the City, including the park. What an exciting way to kick off an evening that culminates in a great fireworks show!

Also carrying out the theme of "Flying High – The Red, White and Blue" is the City’s choice for Grand Marshal, Captain Greg Wooldridge, United States Navy (Retired). As part of his twenty-seven year career with the Navy, he proudly served on three occasions as the flight leader and commanding officer of the Navy Flight Demonstration Squadron, the Blue Angels!

This exciting day starts at 8:30 a.m. with a hometown parade that travels down Lakeway Drive. This is a great event for young and old. If you have never participated in the parade maybe this is the year to do it. Individuals, businesses, organizations and groups are all invited. Whether you are in the parade, or just watching it, you are guaranteed a good time.

There will be many other activities throughout the day. After the parade, around 9:30 a.m., free coffee and donuts will be served at the Activity Center and everyone will have an opportunity to meet the Grand Marshal. The Activity Center will also be the site of the Patriotic Pageant where the Grand Marshal will deliver the keynote address. The Pageant begins at 10:30 a.m. and there is always a full house.

By the time the pageant is over, families may be looking for a good way to cool off. So the Lakeway Swim Center will open at noon with a discounted rate of $3.

City Park will be the site of all the evening festivities. The park will open at 4:30 p.m., but no parking is allowed at the park. All parking will be off-site at the Lakeway Elementary School starting at 4:30 p.m. and at Emmaus Church starting at 5:30 p.m. The evening starts at 5:30 p.m. with a patriotic song by Kalie Naftzger, a young Lakeway resident with an amazing voice. After the song, everyone will be treated to the flyover by the awesome F-16’s.

Following the flyover, the evening festivities will begin with live music from the Carson Brock Group, Corrie West and finally Bobby Ray. There will be drinks and great food available throughout the evening as well as a lot of free fun activities for the children.

At 9:10 p.m. Perry Smith will treat the crowd to a patriotic story, which will be followed by a laser light show that starts at 9:15 p.m. Then around 9:30 p.m. the big moment arrives: Fourth of July Fireworks!

The City of Lakeway is pulling out all the stops to provide a wonderful day for its residents. It will be a day full of fun, but also a day full of meaning when the City of Lakeway honors our great country by "Flying High – The Red, White and Blue."

Heritage Center And Humanities-Texas Collaborate For Summer-Long Exhibit Series

The Lakeway Heritage Commission has arranged with the Humanities-Texas staff to provide a summer-long series of professional exhibits that will be available for public viewing at the Heritage Center every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. beginning on Memorial Day, Monday, May 25, 2009 and ending on Friday, September 11, 2009, coincidentally the eighth anniversary of the terrorist attack in New York City. Arrangements can be made for private showings on a case-by-case basis.

The exhibits are freestanding panels, varying in size from eight (8) to twelve (12) double-sided panels. Each series of exhibits will be on display for a period of four (4) weeks. The first exhibit will be Alamo Images: Changing Perceptions of a Texas Experience, followed by Signers of the Texas Declaration of Independence, Crossroads of Empire: Early Printed Maps of the American Southwest, and closing with The Bill of Rights and The Blessings of Liberty: The U.S. Constitution.

A preview of the exhibits can be accomplished by going to the Humanities-Texas website, www.humanitiestexas.org and clicking on Exhibitions & Resources, and then on Traveling Exhibitions.

The formal opening of the exhibits will occur at approximately 11 a.m. on Monday, May 25th following the Memorial Day services at Heritage Park. By calling the Heritage Center at 608-9533, or making an inquiry at history@cityoflakeway.com, prospective visitors can arrange for private showings for groups or students. An alternate number would be Parks & Recreation at 314-7530.

LAKEWAY ACTIVITY CENTER DISPLAY CASE FEATURES PEZ.

Summer is here and the Lakeway Activity Center will be hosting a number of new summer programs for our younger community members. To welcome them, from June 1 through July 15, children as well as adults will be greeted with a colorful array of PEZ dispensers in the lobby display case. This fun collection is provided by Tammy Templin who lives in the Hills of Lakeway. Tammy started collecting PEZ dispensers in the 90’s due to her young boys. She found they liked the containers as much as the candy and kept acquiring new ones. Since she didn’t want to see some of these cute little trinkets damaged in the toy box, she put 3-4 of her favorites on her shelf at work. When people came into her office, she noticed the dispensers brought a smile to their faces and stories of ones they had possessed when they were kids.

PEZ was first developed in Vienna, Austria in 1927 by Edward Haas. He manufactured a mint to replace smoking as well as to provide breath mints for committed smokers. The German word for mint is pfefferminz: the first, middle and last letter spell out PEZ. The mints were first sold in a little tin but in 1948, Edward decided to make a more hygienic container to dispense the mints. These flat top dispensers are now worth thousands of dollars! In 1952, he took the adult PEZ dispenser and created one with colorful characters and a delectable fruit flavored candy for children. His success grew and really exploded once he agreed to start producing licensed cartoon characters. In order to save import costs, manufacturing began in Orange, Connecticut in 1970. Today, PEZ is sold in over 40 countries and is so affordable, everyone can get one. However, an avid collector has been known to pay upward of $5,000 in order to get a rare one.

Tammy has collected over 100 PEZ dispensers of holiday, Disney and Warner Brother characters and also has some of the larger dispensers which play theme music and provide a whole pack of candy when their heads are tilted back. Tammy still displays her favorites at work and uses some of the small ones for decorations on her Christmas tree. She says they always make the perfect stocking stuffer and bring happy childhood memories for her grown up sons.

Come by the Lakeway Activity Center located at 105 Cross Creek to see if your favorites are in our display case. If you have an interesting or unique collection you would like to share with the community, call Dallas Gorman at 261-1010 or e-mail DallasGorman@CityofLakeway.com to have your collection be considered for display.
