Happy New Year from a wintry Lakeside! All of us on the Lakeside staff hope that 2022 brings you great health, peace, spiritual renewal, and happiness.
I continue to be impressed by the work of the Lakeside team as they collaborate to plan the 2022 summer season with quality programs, religious and spiritual experiences, healthy recreational opportunities and extraordinary guest experiences, along with the tranquil Lakeside culture. It is a privilege to work with this talented team.
Special appreciation goes to the many who stepped forward in 2021 to support Lakeside financially and through hours of volunteer service. Click below for the full message.

Thank you to the hundreds who gathered for the first official Lakeside New Year's Eve Donut Drop! Members of the community helped to organize the event sponsored by Lakeside's Religious Life pillar. Lakesider Sean Gill entertained the crowd with music and lights from the Pavilion, Patio Restaurant donuts were served and Rev. Dr. Charlie Yoost offered a prayer of blessing for the new year.

Thank You!
As we kick off the new year, we are grateful for your support throughout 2021 and on#GivingTuesday. We raised a total of $350,000 on #GivingTuesday to directly support your favorite Chautauqua programs and experiences. Thank you for enhancing the lives of your friends and family through your generosity to Lakeside. The Chautauqua experience at Lakeside is only possible through the community’s dedicated philanthropic support.
Lakeside’s fiscal year ends on March 31, 2022. To date, approximately $845,000 has been raised out of the $1 million fiscal year goal, including funds raised on #GivingTuesday.
"The Chautauqua experience at Lakeside is not inexpensive, so every revenue stream, including charitable giving, is crucial to the overall operations and success of our community," said Cindy Mahl, homeowner and Lakeside Association Board, finance chair. "$1 million is the minimum amount needed just so our season can take place."
There is still time to make a difference and help Lakeside reach its $1 million goal. To make a charitable, tax-deductible contribution to enhance and maintain the area you love most at Lakeside, visit lakesideohio.com/today or call 419.798.4461, ext. 246. Together, let’s make Lakeside the best it can be!
