Please join us for a night under the stars at Class of 2020 Project Graduation Parent/Guardian Dinner! This event is our biggest fundraiser for Project Graduation and is a fun night to connect with friends and celebrate. This year the event is being held at Star Hill Ranch and in the spirit of the 1920's, we are turning back the clock to be Bootleggers! The event will feature dinner, dancing, raffle baskets, live auction, live music, a Speakeasy, cash bar and much more.

Please return your compression wear to a uniform officer as soon as possible. Any compression wear not returned could result in a hold on your account at school which could affect prom tickets.

SAVE THE DATE FOR BAND BANQUET - The Lake Travis Cavalier Band Banquet will be held at the Lake Travis High School Cafeteria the evening of Saturday, May 2, 2020. The Banquet is for ALL students and their families who participate in our band and color guard ensembles. This is a wonderful celebration of our band students' year of accomplishments, and we highly encourage all grades levels (and their parents) to attend! The Cafeteria is transformed into a high-end banquet facility, and we honor our graduating Seniors and more! Many thanks to our Banquet Program Sponsor Capitol Chevrolet. There will be more information to come as the Banquet gets closer. In the meantime, it takes a village to prepare for an event for over 400 attendees - if you'd like to be added to the Band Banquet Planning Committee, please email Mary Pakarinen, VP Events, at ltbpevents@gmail.com
