Austin History & Culture Weekend Trip: Saturday, June 15 - Sunday, June 16
Meet people and have fun - in Austin, Texas!
Michele & Robert invite you to an Austin, Texas weekend trip on Saturday, June 15 and Sunday, July 16.
We’ll have three events scheduled, all of which are hosted by our sister Meetup group: Austin, Texas History & Culture, and you’ll also have plenty of time to explore on your own.
Austin is one of the fastest growing cities in the United States and a fun place to visit, we lived there for three years.
Our meetup events will have a great mix of Austin locals and transplants plus out-of-town visitors.
Come meet people and have fun - in Austin, Texas!
