LVCC LogoGreetings!

    

Summer is winding down and there are many events coming up to celebrate fall in Lake View. Come the LVCC Wine Tasting on September 19th at Captain Morgan's Club at Wrigley Field. (See below).

 
Attend the Lake View East Chamber of Commerce Art Fair on September 11-12, 2010 on Broadway from Belmont to Roscoe with over 150 juried artists, local food, beverages, music, family activities and a sculpture garden. A donation is suggested for the event which runs 10-6 p.m. on Saturday and 10-5 p.m. on Sunday. For more information see www.lakevieweast.com or call 773-348-8608.

East Lake View Neighbors (ELVN) Octoberfest on October 3rd at Murphy's Bleachers.  
 
Thanks to all the volunteers for the Lake View Citizen's Council Music Fest last weekend. We truly appreciate your time and effort. We had great weather, good bands and an expanded area for the fest. Volunteers make this event successfully whether it is working a gate or bartending. All local charities that bartended kept their tips as a way of LVCC helping local charities and giving back to the neighborhood.
 
Also thanks to Jim Lourgas of 3639 Wrigley Rooftop for donating the rooftop to LVCC and ELVN for the Third Annual Neighborhood Appreciation Night on Monday August 30, 2010. The rooftop offered a fabulous view of the City and the Cubs game. The newly renovated 3639 N. Sheffield rooftop provided great food, beverages, an upscale club room, stadium seats on the roof and the staff was very accommodating. Thanks to Manager Steve Alexander and all the staff for making the night perfect. Thanks to everyone who attended and helped support LVCC and ELVN.  More details about the rooftop can be found at http://www.3639wrigleyrooftopcom/.
