Board of Directors’ Meeting
Actions taken July 8, 2021
I have always perceived Lakewood as a “Family Friendly” association. However, some of the pictures, texts, and phone calls I received regarding the 4th of July might indicate otherwise. We are a multigenerational community with a vibrant spirit and active lifestyle but we need to be respectful to each other.

Lakewood’s lakes are hardly like the Lake of the Ozarks with 54,000 acres where you can find a cove and party 24/7 with adults who want to party. Lakewood’s lakes have roughly 365 acres without the privilege of finding private coves to party. Boaters are exposed to all the residents living around the lake and people on the lake with families.

We want everyone to have fun on the lake but it sure seems like some lines are being crossed. Our association does not have any rules to enforce or define “Family Friendly” but we would hope all residents would use common sense in regards to what our families and guests are seeing and hearing on the lake.
I would like to acknowledge the Activities Committee for planning “Family Friendly” activities for our association. Your time, talents, and selfless ways are appreciated and noticed. I realize you took time from your families to volunteer your precious time to help Lakewood residents have a great 4th of July. I know we also appreciate the countless hours Community Services, Maintenance, pool staff, office staff, and supporting staff, took from their families to ensure a safe, fun, environment for our residents. Safety is our number one priority on our lake. I continue to hear about boating violations probably due to a lack of knowledge. I would suggest you go to our website, LPOA.com, login, click on Lakes, and review the rules on Boater Safety and take the Lake Education course. It doesn’t take long and it’s important information.
