Happy first week of summer break to lots of you! We’re only a couple days in, but I’m definitely not missing my 5 a.m. alarm clock. I’m getting used to these slower mornings pretty quickly.
Noelle had her Müv dance recital last weekend, and I have to give them so much credit. The whole production was so professionally done, the kids all did amazing, and the choreography was truly awesome. Watching all those dancers up there, so proud of themselves, was a pretty perfect way to kick off summer.
If you’re looking for a dance studio for your kiddo, I’d definitely recommend checking them out. They’ve got a lot going on this summer too, including dance camps, intensives, and flexible summer class cards if your kid wants to keep moving without committing to a full season.
🧗 New ropes course nears opening
The Gist: YMCA of Central Texas is opening a new ropes course and community pavilion at the Twin Lakes campus in Cedar Park later this summer. The expansion includes a two-level aerial adventure course, event pavilion, and future plans for a zip line across the lake.
Why It Matters: This adds a new kind of outdoor gathering space for families, camps, and school groups in a fast-growing part of the area. It also gives Cedar Park another community-focused destination built around recreation, events, and getting kids outside and active.
🏗️ Liberty Hill plans major retail hub
The Gist: There’s a new retail project being discussed for the area off Highway 29 near Butler Farms Boulevard. It’s listed in city documents as Sutton Natalie Commercial, and if it gets the green light, it could bring a pretty big mix of restaurants, shops, services, and everyday errand spots to that side of Liberty Hill. Nothing is breaking ground tomorrow, though. The city still has to finish the annexation and rezoning process first…
