Meeting Matters

Thanks to everyone who rowed, skied or swam to get to the LAPS meeting tonight. It was a pretty good turnout despite the weather. And it was worth it to find out that LAPS members get 30% off at The Cedar River Club (formerly the Duck Pond). Sweet!

Some of the upcoming events to put on your calendar are:

  • Spruce up Bayview Park September 18th 10 am to 2 pm
  • Neighborhood/LAPS Rally October 3 3pm (our highway cleanup at the half bridge will be earlier that day)
  • Yearly planning meeting at Cedar River Club November 7th 3 pm
Stay tuned for more info on the great things that are happening in your community!

Great Wikipedia Entry

I don't know who is responsible for it but I came across a really good wikipedia article on our community while looking for Lake Shore history on the internet. It even mentions lapsjax.org so it's pretty current. You can read it yourself by going here.

A Good Time...

... was had by all who attended our last Outdoor Movie Night of the summer. We thought we might get rained out at first but our luck held out once again. It was a great swashbuckler of a movie and it was so nice to be out with the neighbors. Thanks so much to Carla and Paul for all their hard work in putting these movie nights together.

Don't forget about Monday night's meeting. We are planning lots of good stuff through the end of the year and we need everyone's ideas and input to help make our community the best in the Westside!

Friday Night Movie THIS Week!

Since the public voting for the movie of choice has been less than decisive, some of the Board members have gone completely off script and have chosen an entirely different movie to be shown this Friday. We have chosen Leonardo DiCaprio's "Man in the Iron Mask" We feel since this movie is PG13 it will have greater appeal for everyone.


We sure hope to see you up at the gates this Friday evening. Bring a chair, a snack and a neighbor for a fun (and free!) night out! What could be better?

Here's Your Sign...




Our sign for our adopted bit of highway (the old half bridge off of Lakeshore Blvd that runs down to the river next to the railroad tracks) that is.





Thanks for the pictures Melanie!
