Hi Lake Desire Area Residents
Special Guest Santa for this year’s
Christmas Party!
- Lake Desire Christmas Party – Friday, Dec. 18th, 5:30-7:30pm – We have a special guest Santa for our Christmas Party this year. He has been the Macy's Santa for 10 years and at South Center and Super Mall before that for a total of 15 years. He has a real beard. So bring your kids and your cameras. Lake Desire children and their families are invited to the annual Christmas Party. Santa Claus will be making his appearance. Hot dogs, punch and dessert will be served. There will also be crafts, gifts and time to meet your neighbors. This year, we are asking for donations of canned food for those in need. If you would like to volunteer for this event, please contact Heather Smith, Heather@smith.net, Tammie Cook, Codsky@aol.com or Heather Stafford, Heather.Stafford@comcast.net.
- Gang Tagging in Fairwood - This note is to provide you with information about growing incidences of gang tagging occurring in our area. To keep this insidious crime from growing in our area, our local citizens need to become involved with watchful eyes. Please take a look at our current story on this topic, and please pass along the information to your network. To view this story, please CLICK HERE. Unless we do something about this, it's only a matter of time before they hit your neighborhood. Help us to keep this criminal activity out of Fairwood.
