11th Annual Lakeside Garden Tour
|
 The Lakeside in Bloom Beautification Awards Program honors those who have worked to promote the overall aesthetic appearance of the grounds. Guests and residents are invited to experience these landscapes on a self-guided Garden Tour. This year, the 11th Annual Garden Tour will take place from 9 a.m.-4 p.m. Wednesday, July 13 at winning gardens across the Lakeside grounds. |
 The Plein Air Art Festival will begin on Friday, July 15 when more than 30 plein air artists across the Midwest will arrive to paint outdoor landscapes until Sunday, July 17.
The term "en plein air" means painting "in the open air." Plein air artists will be painting scenes throughout Lakeside, especially lakefront landscapes. Lakesiders are invited to watch them paint throughout the weekend.
This three-day event ends on Sunday, July 17 with a collaborative effort blending the artistic expression of the Plein Air Art Festival and the craftsmanship of the Lakeside Wooden Boat Society (LWBS) at the Lakeside Wooden Boat Show. Read more... |

Planting Seeds & Pulling Weeds: Hilty Succeeds
|
 Jan Hilty has been a Lakesider since she was a kid, participating in church camps and visiting her great aunt and uncle's cottage with her family.
After a few years of hiatus from Lakeside, she came back with her husband for a wedding. Already on the search for a summer getaway, the rediscovery of Lakeside was just what they needed.
Not long afterwards, they purchased a cottage on Cherry Avenue. Sixteen years later, Hilty is not only happy, but thriving, just like the garden she tends to near the Pavilion.
"I became a Master Gardener through the Ohio State University in 2007 for Delaware County," she says. "While I was primarily self-taught, I received a lot of education through my involvement with the two units of the Herb Society of America." |
