Hello again
We are so excited about our PAINT AND SIP NIGHT on Friday, July 11th at 5:00-7:00 at the Club House.
We have 20 residents who have sent RSVPs and that is our maximum for this, our first event. If you have any reason not to attend, please let us know right away because there is a wait list of eager creatives who will fill your spot.
Reminder to bring $10 that day and what ever you would like to sip on.
If you would like to plan our next event, join us at our PLANNING MEETING on Wednesday, August 6th at 4:00pm in the clubhouse.
We are drumming up new ideas for our next event with our fellow residents, fueled by Helen's vibrant enthusiasm and Carolyn's experience and hard work!
Thanks to all of you who are showing so much interest! We cant wait to see your painted flower pots .
If you have any questions please call Carolyn Lewis 530-306-2439 or Jolene Tompkins 415-305-5410.
Marcia Baron’s granddaughter, Elena, did a recycle program for school and would like to thank all the people here in Lake Park Estates that contributed. She earned $87.00 and donated the money to Foothill Dog Rescue.
(Editor’s addition: Elena is a very sweet young lady. If you attend any of the dinners, you will probably see her helping out in many different ways. She is gracious and kind! Be sure to say “hi” to her.)
Here’s a public service announcement that you might not know about: Our clubhouse has an upper room for storage of strange and wonderful things. Among them are some things that you can borrow for as long as you need them: two wheelchairs, four metal walkers, and 3 bath chairs, sized small, medium and large. If you would like to see them, check in the office between 1:00 pm and 6:00 pm on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday or Friday and they will unlock the door for you. (We also have several pair of crutches to give away, if you know anybody that needs them).
This brings me to another thought that I’d like to share with you. I recently embarked on a course of therapy to work on some unnecessary stress thinking of mine that I don’t really need to carry with me. I met with the therapist for our first meeting and I think we will have a productive, fun relationship. She even gave me homework, which I love! (I know – who likes homework? It turns out that I do!)
One of my activities is to sit down every morning before I do anything else and write down 5 things I am grateful for. It’s interesting that once you start to think about gratitude, you find lots of things that make you happy. I know that I’m grateful for my home here in the park (23 years and still happy) and I’m really grateful for every one of you who takes the time to read our monthly magazine!
I don’t know where my journey will take me, but I’m eager to follow the path. Imagine, an 83 year old, card playing, chip and dip eating, slightly anxious old gal – learning something new!!!
Love, Mikki (the Pigs in a Blanket lady) P.S. It’s not cold now but the pigs really need blankets…
Things to Remember…
Glenys Pabst will take names for the memorial garden plaques. Please be aware that we have to have several names before the engraver makes the plaque. We remember residents who have passed on or moved out of the park by putting their names on those plaques. Give her a call at 916-790-7019 to get more details or to ask for more information. She’s anxious to talk to you!

PLEASE TEXT or CALL MIKKI AT 916-806-3025 IF I MISS YOU OR ONE OF YOUR NEIGHBORS OR EVEN IF I MISSPELL YOUR NAME
TEXT ME IF SOMEONE SHOULD BE REMOVED FROM OR ADDED TO THE LIST FOR NEXT YEAR. I DON’T ALWAYS KNOW IF SOMEONE LEAVES OR MOVES IN. I REALLY NEED YOUR HELP WITH THIS. THANK YOU!!!
As homeowners in the Lake Park Estates Mobile Home Park, all of us value our residency here, whether you have lived here for years, or perhaps you just recently moved to our Park. As owners, we all share a vital interest in the smooth operation of our Park and continued residency here far into the future. To that end, our Homeowner’s Association (HOA) is known formally as the Lake Park Estates Association, Inc., and has been a registered non-profit with the State of California since our inception in 1991. We are asking each non-member to please consider joining – the lifetime fee is only $25 (or sliding scale)!
None of us wants to even entertain the remote possibility of ownership change of our Park -- and we put emphasis on the fact that there is NO indication at present that there will be any change to the current ownership at any time in the future. An organized framework such as an established HOA simply supports assured continued residency should ownership of our Park ever change due to some unforeseen circumstances. The purpose of this pre-established HOA is to assist us in shifting into gear with our option to purchase our Park should that very distant possibility ever arise.
We are stronger together: of the nearly 190 total homes in our park, we currently have 82 HOA shareholders in our LPE non-profit corporation. Become a member of the HOA and have a say in the decision-making process. We need YOU, your energy, your ideas, and support!
If you are already a member, please know we greatly value your choice, and welcome your participation, suggestions, and feedback. If you are considering membership, we sincerely look forward to welcoming you as a new member – contact one of the Board members now!

MISSING and SADLY MISSED

His name is KIWI and his mom assured me that he is not out there making babies.
Please call 530-748-7176 if you have or have seen KIWI.
