International Shuffleboard Champion
|
 A lifelong Lakesider represented the classic Lakeside pastime well last month when he became the 36th International Shuffleboard Association (ISA) World Singles Championship winner. On July 28, after a week of tournament play, Michael Hirsch claimed the sought-after golden cue in Niteroi, a city in Rio, Brazil. According to the ISA, "Michael is one of the wunderkinds who learned to play shuffleboard on the storied courts of Lakeside Chautauqua in northern Ohio." |
 On July 22, a Master Planning Presentation & Workshop, titled "Planning Principles & Preliminary Concepts," was held in Hoover Auditorium. Here is a summary and draft of the ideas collected this summer. To view the entire PowerPoint presentation and find more ways to get involved, visit www.lakesidemasterplan.com/community-workshop.
