Hello!
Happy August! The start of a new month means a whole calendar of fun things ahead in the community. I’d recommend stopping by our Community Calendar and our Back-to-School guide, and adding some to your schedule in the weeks ahead 😄 📅
Speaking of upcoming events, Faith in Action Georgetown is gearing up for their second annual “Portraits of Independence” event on August 9th. The evening will be full of great stories, wonderful people and a Q&A session with two veterans. Get all the details and see how you can purchase tickets in the article below.
Also in this week’s headlines, read about how the Sheraton Austin Georgetown Hotel & Conference Center helps locals and travelers alike feel at home (and might be a great place for a last-minute stay-cation before school starts), and check out our story on how acting, stand-up comedy and massage therapy shaped a local therapist’s journey.
In business news, Theo’s Mini Donuts has officially introduced a new mobile donut trike, and NKB Dance & Expressions is officially open in Georgetown! Plus, let’s give a big hello to our newest Business Directory members: Alcorn Insurance, Cleaning Time and the Sheraton Austin Georgetown Hotel & Conference Center.
Also in the local headlines this week, artists are being invited to apply for an upcoming painted rain barrel project, and the Georgetown Arts & Culture Board has awarded grants in 2022 Round II – you can learn more about both of these updates below. Plus, with Fall just around the corner (though it may not feel like it with these summer temperatures), registration is officially open for the Georgetown Parks and Recreation Fall/Winter programs.
Finally, you’ll definitely want to check out the latest Georgetown Hometown Hero award. It was such an honor to meet Michael Wayne and learn about all that he does for our community and communities near by! Thank you Michael!
These are just a few of the updates we have for you this week!
