LAKELAND PARK NEWS Carole Humann 385-1605 REPORT LAKE COMPLETELY SAFE FOR SWIMMING Several people have asked about the cleanliness of the water in the lake and I am most happy to report that the water is completely safe for swim­ ming. According to the state con^>ci"Y5i£i'w-n ft*** lake is in better condition than for many years. They have been taking water samples su that a fish stocking program can be started in the fall. There are no septic fields draining into the lake at this time. In the spring leakage was found en­ tering the lake from a system in West Shore Beach, but this was repaired and further test show that no leakage is pres­ ent. As every one knows there has been an abnormal amount of rain this year so far and this does much to keep the lake stirred up so that it doesn't appear to be -clear.So happy swimming and enjoy the new raft which has been installed at Herzog Beach. P rom the crowds that are found every day at the beaches they are probably the most popular spots in the sub­ division.

Each year the festivities start earlier and last longer and more planning and hard work are put into the weekend affair which becomes more exciting all the time. Sorry about the lack of a col­ umn last week. We went camp­ ing with Pat and Jack Slaughter and due to such things like a blown out tire didn't make it «*• back on schedule. We sure had a good time and enjoyed sun­ shine while McHenry was drowning. We also enjoyed sev­ eral fish dinners cooked over the Icampfire and best of all cooked by the guys. We smelted like Smokey the Bear when we got home but a little soap and water/and a good solid mattress jhtened out the kinks in this ancient back and when can we go again, Dad?

They were given VIP treatment in Washington and visited many of the government buildings while they were there. Clare came home just in time to get the ball rolling for the annual Moose tournament for which he was the chairman. This is really turning into a Lakeland Park affair.

This is the week of the moon- shot and all the old romantic songs about the moon seem to have had a revival. I wonder if all the little kiddies who have been threatened with being sent to the moon are getting a little nervous around the edges. Reservations anyone? The regular Little League season has come to an end with a few All-Star games to be played. As we get news of them we'll put it here.

The moms and the minor league All-Stars played the second game and through lots of perseverence and a few blind umpires (who understand control of the cookie jar!) the moms won that game. Umpires were major league All-Stars. Casting no asper­ sions on their; veracity of course, but in their position with your mom sliding into base and breaking her fingernails for the good of the cause, what would you do? ; Our very deepest sympathy is extended to Shirley Koch and her family on the recent passing of her father, Arnst Meilahn.
