Lakeside Wooden Boat Show community helps a dream come true

Bob Lewis’ interest in wooden boats began when he was a young boy. He cherishes childhood memories of spending time on his father’s 1957, 16 ft. Penn Yan wooden boat.

In 2010, Bob and his wife, Susan, were in the process of restoring a 1959, 16.5 ft. Lyman Runabout when they first attended the Lakeside Wooden Boat Show.

“We wanted to see the boats and talk with other boat enthusiasts about restoration and ask advice,” said Susan. “Everyone was very willing to share.”

With recommendations in mind and months of hard work, Bob and Susan launched their fully restored wooden boat for the first time in Lake Mosquito, in Ohio, on Sept. 5, 2010.

Beginning in early March and April, the Fountain Inn received several notable renovations and improvements.

One of the first groups to experience the upgrades was the Church Planting Assessment Center (CPAC), introduced by Lakesiders Tom and Debbie Jones.

The 45-person group filled 22 hotel rooms and stayed at Lakeside Chautauqua in early April.

Debbie said her group “rested well” on the new mattresses, linens and bedding that were replaced in all Fountain Inn rooms. Decorative pillows and down comforters were new additions as well.

In late April, the Advancement & Communications Department moved from the Lakeside Chautauqua Administration Office to the Legacy House.

The Legacy House is located at 217 Walnut Ave., across from Artists-N-Cahoots, the Lakeside store.

With the generous help of the Lakeside Spring Cleanup Day volunteers and the Lakeside Chautauqua Maintenance Department, the space was transformed into the Legacy House, including eight offices and a conference room.
