ADULT POTLUCK!
<<Click here>> for Adult Potluck Images
Our Potluck evening at the beach was an awesome event with a big round of applause to our Social Director Lesley who organized and planned this special evening for all of us to enjoy.
The weather was perfect, food selection was so good, ambience top notch and our well chosen Mexican theme was enjoyed by all.
We had 52 registered guests with a good mix of new and existing residents who all mingled and I’m sure some new friendships were made.
A big shoutout to everyone who pitched in and helped with the takedown of the tents and tables. Can’t wait to see what next year brings!!
Regards,
Betty Gaudet
LECA President

Great afternoon at the Family Funday last Saturday, July 27, 2024.
Lesley Kazakoff/Social Director (and her group of volunteers-thank you) organized a great afternoon of fun and games at the beach for every one of all ages.
It was well attended with 60 participants, the weather was perfect, lots of giggles could be heard as games, rock painting, and water activities were being played. Attached are some pictures taken during the day.
Thanks again Lesley!

FIRE SMART
June 22, 2024
I would like to thank everyone who came out today to help with our Fire smart cleanup. We were able to fill three large dumpsters.
Every little bit that’s cleaned up helps us in making our homes safer in the event of a wildfire.
And thanks to Bill Crum and Mark Duncan for their continued involvement and support.
Also, thanks to Wes and Andrew from Vernon Firesmart, who brought refreshments from Tim Hortons, and helped out with some of the cleanup and information revolving around the Fire Smart program, and what the city is doing moving forward with detection devices, as well as other preventative measures to help improve our chances of surviving a major incident.
More to follow at a later date, as these systems are tested and placed in our neighborhood.

FireSmart Coordinator for Canadian lakeview

BEAR UPDATE:
August 28, 2023
Note received from Swallows Place.
During the evening of August 24. "our neighbourhood bear opened a lever handle door that was unlocked and spread garbage over two yards.
He is obviously addicted to garbage, but this takes it to a new level. He now knows how to open a lever handle door, and that food might be on the other side."
As always ensure your garbage is in a secured area and not placed on the street until the designated pick up day
LECA FIRE PATROLS
August 20, 2023
LECA’s FireSmart committee is building a database of volunteers to re-activate fire patrols. Should they be required. This was done 2 years ago during the Whiterock Lake Fire when patrol shifts in 1-hour blocks were conducted.
Patrols involve teams of two patrolling the neighborhood, looking for possible spot fires and reporting any observed fire to emergency services. Schedules to be determined at a later date and dependent on participation and need. Patrols will take place during the evenings/nights of greatest risk.
The purpose at this time is to create a database of interested Patrol volunteers, no immediate action is planned but should this be required, those who have registered will be contacted with next steps.
Should you have interest in participating, please contact Wilf Mulder – wilf at wilfmulder.com and you will be added to the list.

VOLUNTEER BEACH CLEAN UP
June 4, 2022
On behalf of the L.E.C.A Board of Directors we are so grateful to everyone who volunteered for our 1’st Beach Clean-Up this year held last Saturday (June 4th). Thank you to everyone who gifted LECA their “Free Time” and energy and making a difference by choosing to help.
It was deemed a success in a number of ways:
A) Beach weeded, raked and cleaned up. Over 5 truckloads of debris collected and delivered to our local land-fill.
B) Community camaraderie built and shared among new and existing LECA members.
Lots of friendly conversations (and laughter) over coffee & donuts.
C) This has certainly gone a long way to fulfill our obligation on the Easement Agreement.
We recognize not everyone could attend on Saturday ( but there will be other designated beach clean-up days) so hopefully you can sign up for one of those later dates. Also thank you to others who volunteer their times in other ways for our community ( certainly not meant to take away from any of those community members).
