Lakesider Pilots New Format
|
In the spirit of Chautauqua - that is, the spirit of learning, growing and trying new things Lakeside is piloting a new layout of the
Lakesider newspaper with this
2018 Week 9 issue.
In this new version we are piloting this week, the programs and events are listed chronologically. Each day of Week 9, Saturday-Friday, has its own two-page spread that consists of key stories and a comprehensive list of events for the day. On the days where it makes the most sense (Monday-Friday), events are also grouped by pillar, for those who are familiar with the separate programs and wish to search for events more quickly that way.
At the end of the summer and into the off-season, Lakeside will review and take into consideration all guests' and staff's feedback. The final result for next year may be to continue with this new layout, it may be to revisit the old layout, or it may be to come up with a hybrid version of the two. If, after reviewing this newspaper, you wish to submit your thoughts, please visit
www.lakesideohio.com/lakesider, and click on the button to take the survey.

Reflecting on Seven Years at Lakeside
|
 At the end of the summer, I will retire from my position as the Director of Religious Life & Church Outreach.This is a bittersweet moment for me. Lakeside has graciously received my wife Shirley and me, and we have come to love the spirit of Lakeside. We were privileged to see the idea of The Memorial Garden at Chautauqua Park become a reality and I am thrilled to now see a portable labyrinth at Lakeside, with a more permanent one coming soon. And of course, we cannot forget to mention the life-long friends we have found here.
Within the past decade, both at Lakeside and on a more national scale, the understanding and nature of religion has changed significantly. Within American society, there is a dramatic decrease in attendance at 'main line churches,' or churches at all for that matter.
