LSPR contributes to your quality of life with economic environmental

Did You Know an average house that sells for $150K would sell for $30K more if located near a safe well maintained park like Lowenstein Park. Did You Know LSPR irrigates the athletic fields at Legacy Park with water out of Legacy Lake rather than purchasing public water – saving over $160,000 in water costs annually and saving over 20 million gallons of potable water.

health

Did You Know fitness programs such those at LPCC and the Gamber Community Center reduce healthcare costs by as much as 55%.

community development

Did You Know the cost to incarcerate a juvenile offender for 1 year is $71K. With that money, LSPR could employ 5 part time staff at LPCC, provide 100 youth passes to Summit Waves & 100 fitness memberships annually.

educational

Did You Know CPR and early defibrillation according to training provided by LSPR to over 300 residents annually can result in long-term increased survival rates as high as 40 percent.
