For us, who have been to Margaritaville Orlando, it is an extension of the spirit of Jimmy Buffett. Each corner of this resort echoes, “It takes no more time to see the good side of life than to see the bad.” It is the same love for life, music, and love! The recent Labor Day Weekend festivities at Margaritaville Orlando have once again reestablished the fact.  There have been promenade sunset walks, food, live entertainment, and many other family-friendly activities.  Moreover, like Margaritaville at Sea, Margaritaville Orlando also has something new and great to offer.

“...There was always Christmas time  To wipe the year away  I guess that morning they'd decided  That the war would have to wait…”   Well, like this George Michael song, I also believe that December is the month that brings “Peace on Earth.” And Christmas celebrations are nowhere more diverse than in the USA.  In 2024, it was Orlando that stole all the limelight with a record surge in the tourism development tax (TDT) during the Christmas holiday. According to a report on Florida Politics, TDT of Orlando in December 2024 was $31.8 million.  Casandra Matej, the CEO of Visit Orlando, had shared a statement on this revenue surge. He said, “Orlando ended 2024 with strong travel performance in December.”  Furthermore, for the last few years, the Christmas Markets in New York, Chicago, Denver, Cincinnati, Minnesota, Portland, and many other places have been the biggest attractions for domestic and international visitors. These markets, inspired by the European Christmas Bazars, also bring a positive impact on the local economy.  However, it’s not just the Orlando theme parks or the Christmas markets that make December in the USA special.

As a writer and editor of travel blogs for 10 years, grammatical consistency is of paramount importance to me. You have to be specific about the spelling convention. You cannot just choose the USA spelling convention one day and follow the British, Canadian, or Australian convention the next day.  Along with the spelling convention, capitalization, and formatting are two other important technical or basic aspects for editorial cohesion. Now, the concern I am going to address today is why Lake Texoma should be capitalized.  Here, I will discuss why Lake Texoma should be capitalized in all travel blogs and guides for grammatical correctness, official reasons, and more. The key areas covered in this blog are: What Is Lake Texoma, And Why Is It So Famous? The name Texoma stands for a blend of the states of Texas and Oklahoma, as the lake is located at the border of these two states.  Further, it is located on the Red River and is managed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. As a major water reservoir, it is a major source of flood prevention, recreation, and water supply for these two states. Moreover, it is an important hub for the generation of hydroelectric power.  Also, with a shoreline of 500 miles, Lake Texoma is a popular destination for swimming, fishing, and boating. Millions of visitors flock to this beautiful lake every year.  So, it is an important tourist spot and an important local identity for the states of Texas and Oklahoma. It is also a place of national and international importance, with the construction of the lake taking us back to the days of the Second World War. Why Lake Texoma Should Be Capitalized? From grammatical correctness to the U.S government confirming capitalization, there are many reasons why Lake Texoma should be capitalized.  1. Lake Texoma Should Be Capitalized Because It Is A Proper Noun If we consider the basic grammatical standards, Lake Texoma should be capitalized as it is a proper noun. Furthermore, the name consists of a generic part or descriptor, Lake, and a proper noun or name, Texoma.  According to official grammatical standards, when a geographical feature has a generic descriptor and a name, both should be capitalized. For example, Mount Everest, Victoria Lake, etc.  2. All Educational And Legal Sources Use Capitalization While Writing Lake Texoma From schools to universities, many educational institutions across levels incorporate Lake Texoma in their curriculum, and everywhere it follows a capital casing.  You can check out the geography textbooks, state resource maps, and state guides. When students learn that Lake Texoma should be capitalized from the very beginning, they develop better writing style, communication skills, and grammatical correctness.  On the other hand, legal documents such as property papers, deeds, water rights, and land zoning need to have Lake Texoma in a capitalized format.  This is very crucial, as if you miscapitalize any word in a legal document, it can lead to ambiguity and can even make your clauses and claims invalid.  3. The U.S. Government Officially Confirms The Use Of Lake Texoma In Capitals You will find Lake Texoma written in a capitalized format in all public-facing government documents.  All the documents of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, including news, bulletins, updates, environmental assessments, or reports, have Lake Texoma in a capitalized format.  Furthermore, the Oklahoma Water Resources Board and the Texas Water Development Board follow the capitalization norms for reservoirs with names. So, in every document, they write “Lake Texoma.”  4. State-Level Regulations For Capitalizing Lake Texoma Oklahoma and Texas have recognized the capitalized format of Lake Texoma for all their official documents, including: Public Works Reports State Park Brochures Tourism Websites This consistency across all documents helps Lake Texoma to be recognized and registered as a geographical name of repute. 5. Lake Texoma Should Be Capitalized For Editorial Consistency In reference to where I began the discussion, Lake Texoma should be capitalized to maintain editorial consistency.  If I write “lake Texoma” in one section of my article and “Lake Texoma” or “lake texoma” in other places, it impacts my credibility and professionalism as a writer.  So, Lake Texoma should be capitalized to: Make readers believe in my credibility as a writer. Showcase that I pay attention to every detail. Maintain the authenticity and authority of the guide.  Help readers avoid confusion about Lake Texoma as a general location.  Moreover, using the right and consistent capitalization format helps to improve user experience. So, it positively impacts the overall performance of my blogging site and helps me score better in the E-E-A-T assessments by Google's Quality Raters.  6. Standard Style Guides Agree That Lake Texoma Should Be Capitalized The Chicago Manual of Style, Associated Press (AP) Stylebook, MLA Handbook, and all other major style books suggest that Lake Texoma should be considered as a compound proper noun and should be capitalized.  In this compound proper noun, “Lake” is the general descriptor, and “Texoma” is the name of the water body.  So, all the media outlets across all formats, including North Texas e-News, KTEN, and WFAA, use Lake Texoma in a capitalized format.  Why Lake Texoma Should Be Capitalized Everywhere? (Beyond Grammar 101) There are deeper reasons why we need to capitalize Lake Texoma. From the technical reasons of improving SEO practices to the more profound aspect of cultural identity, here is more about why capitalizing Lake Texoma is imperative. 1. SEO And Online Search Capitalization or casing does not directly impact how Google’s algorithm processes a keyword. However, when I capitalize Lake Texoma, it gives a positive signal about the readability, structure, and professionalism of my content.  However, there are more reasons why capitalizing Lake Texoma helps me.  • Adherence To Keyword Convention And Consistency All the tourism boards and travel sites used the spelling convention of Lake Texoma. Therefore, when I follow this convention, it enhances the relevance of the keyword and its adherence to the norm.  • Proper Capitalization Ensures Better Visibility On The Search Engine Result Page (SERP) When I capitalize Lake Texoma, which is the correct format, I improve the quality of my article. Also, proper capitalization helps me to win the confidence of the readers. Thus, it indirectly boosts the SEO performance of an article.  Informative and high-quality content always has better chances of having a higher ranking on the SERP, and it can even feature in the snippets, AI overview results, or voice search queries.  • Improving CTR Or Click-Through Rates When an SEO title or meta description has a good structure, it has better chances of getting clicked.
