Event: Lakeway July 4th Parade
Status Firm
Date: 3rd
Location: Lakeway, Texas
Coordinator: Danny K
Contact # 512.385.0168
Synopsis: This parade is well sponsored, well organized and most important - well attended.  The route winds through the village of Lakeway with lots of hills and turns.  In the past, this event has been very hot and other times very wet.  

Trailer parking can be a bit of a hassle for this event if you wish to park at Swenson Auctioneers.  In years past, we have had many vehicles participate as well has hauled many former veterans and distinguished guests.

Details:

  • We will meet and form up at the strip center parking lot at 1202 Lakeway Dr. Sat morning 3 July. We will leave the parking lot between 0715 and NLT, 0730 to the staging area. We will be hauling the Vietnam Vets and probably a few other misc. folks that show up .
  • As we head toward the driving range staging area Lakeway Dr. will become a one way street. At this time jeeps, blazers, M37s will be in the left lane and deuces, gun trucks, 5 ton, land yachts etc will be in the right lane.
  • When we reach the staging area the smaller vehicles will turn left by the maint. building and come in on the back side of the driving range according to our parade location. There we will unload any riders who are walking/marching in the parade.
  • The big truck will proceed past the driving range to Atlantic, turn left to Teal St., turn left again on Teal St.and stage at the corner of Teal and Flamingo. See the map that was sent yesterday. Your passengers can unload at that point or if you can safely stop and unload anywhere before Atlantic go ahead and do so. Once the parade starts turn left on Flamingo and come to the corner of Flamingo and Lakeway Dr. When we pull out onto Lakeway Dr. simply fall in behind us.
We have a good group scheduled to show up but on this one we are not restricted to a particular number of vehicles so come on out. The theme this year is Military - A Family Affair. If there are any weather updates I'll let you know and if have any questions let me know.

Directions:
From RR620 in Lakeway, turn onto Lakeway Blvd.  Proceed 1 street past Lohmans Crossing to Lakeway Drive and turn Right.  Swenson Auctioneers is at 1204 Lakeway Drive.
