Dear Lakeside Community,
Throughout the summer of 2015, Lakesiders were asked to imagine what Lakeside could and should be in the years to come. Input was gathered through multiple surveys, numerous roundtable discussions, interviews and social media.
All of this outreach and input is helping us build the necessary framework to develop a master plan and begin to prioritize specific projects and initiatives that support and enrich our Chautauqua programming.
Many needs were identified, but Lakesiders consistently noted two as short-term priorities: a community swimming pool and enhanced wellness programming.
Health and wellness are integral to our mission of nurturing mind, body and spirit. Following a community forum held last Labor Day weekend, a Pool & Wellness Community Taskforce was assembled to begin due diligence on what it would take to build a community swimming pool and adjoining classroom space for expanded wellness programming.
