Lakeside Chautauqua Named 'Best of
Lake Erie'
|
|
The magazine's 'Best of Lake Erie' issue includes both editors' and readers' picks of the best dining, shopping, lodging and attractions in Ohio, Ontario, New York, Pennsylvania and Michigan.
"Lakeside is one of our favorite places on the lake,' said
Lake Erie Living Editor Colleen Smitek, who makes a point of visiting with her family at least once a summer. "There is truly no place like it."
She recently spent the afternoon in Lakeside for the annual Garden Tour with her mother, two daughters and their friends.
In her 'From the Editor' section of the 'Best of Lake Erie' issue, she notes, "It seems to me that the best outings are the ones that launch you completely into the moment, washing away any cares or concerns you may have had before leaving home. Sometimes, that happens as far away as the Caribbean or California. But, just as often, it's on quick getaways only an hour or two from home. A good example is the day I recently spent at Ohio's Lakeside Chautauqua."

| Wellness Advisory Team Learns about Blue Zones Project |
 Over Labor Day weekend, the
Wellness Advisory Team gathered in Chautauqua Park for a private dinner with Tony Buettner, Senior Vice President of Business Development with the Blue Zones Project, and his wife, Tammy.
Tony and his brother, Dan, have led teams of researches across the globe to uncover the secrets of Blue Zones, geographic regions where high percentages of centenarians are enjoying remarkably long, full lives.
After identifying five Blue Zones, the teams of researchers identified lifestyle characteristics that might explain longevity. They found that the lifestyles of all Blue Zone residents shared nine specific characteristics. They call these characteristics the Power 9®.
Tony shared his Blue Zones Project research to a crowd of 480 Lakesiders on Friday in Hoover Auditorium. At the Wellness Advisory Team dinner the following evening, team members asked follow-up questions to Tony's lecture.

Clergy Renewal Scholarship Deadline Approaching
|
In the biblical tradition, keeping Sabbath is essential to maintaining a relationship with God. A time of renewal for clergy is energizing and an important part of maintaining the commitment, passion and skills to focus on ministry.
Lakeside believes that this scholarship will deepen the spiritual lives of clergy, encouraging reflection, rest, renewal and clarity for life and work. The scholarship provides up to three overnight stays at the Fountain Inn. The scholarship can't be used between Memorial Day through Labor Day each year.
A clergyperson who is a member of the East or West Ohio United Methodist Church Conference is eligible to apply. The scholarship will be applied directly to Fountain Inn accommodations at Lakeside Chautauqua.
