Due to COVID-19, your pool experience at the Grindley Aquatic & Wellness Campus will look much different this year. Please read about our online reservation process, hours of operation, check-in procedures and more. Any new announcements are bolded and italicized.

Capacity: The pool has traditionally held 300 swimmers at a time in the past. However, the capacity this summer has

been reduced to 60 swimmers per timeslot for safe social distancing. Chairs and tables are available for use but are not to be moved as they are placed 6 feet apart for safe social distancing. Please note that we have purposely placed more chairs on the pool deck than capacity to make it easier for family groups to find spaces together and maintain distance from others.

In response to recent updates regar-ding COVID-19, Lakeside has decided to modify this year’s 5k Raccoon Run and One-Mile Fun Run to virtual only races.

A virtual race allows participants to complete their 5k or One-Mile Fun Run from any location. You can run from your house or lake cottage, from a treadmill in the Lakeside Fitness Room, from a neighborhood park, state park or anywhere in the world.

Because of the varied courses, unfor-tunately, there will be no trophies and no award ceremony this year. However, all participants will receive a T-shirt. (Extra shirts may be ordered for $10 each.) The-se will be mailed or can be picked up at the Lakeside Administration Office once they become available.

All runs must be completed between July 26-August 1. Registration has been extended through August 1 and inclu-des the price of a T-shirt; $30/person for 5k Raccoon Run and $20/person for One-Mile Fun Run. Register online at la-

kesideohio.com/raccoonrun. You may still register on-site on Sun-

day, July 26, outside Hoover Auditorium from 7-10 a.m. However, there will be no set race course and no start time. If you choose to run that day in Lakeside, you must heed all COVID-19 protocols and practice safe social distancing.

Even though this isn’t a competitive race, you may still share your run time as early as July 26 up through August 1. To submit your time, visit runsignup.com and search “Raccoon Run.”

We regret not having the run in-per-son, particularly since this would have been our 40th Anniversary. Rest assured, we will properly celebrate our run’s 40th anniversary next year and look forward to seeing you then!

We encourage you to share photos of yourself and your family running near your homes, neighborhood parks and home treadmills. We want to spread your love of healthy exercise with the entire Lakeside family on Facebook.

VIRTUAL 5k Raccoon Run & Fun Run

Lakeside welcomes Fr. Michael A. Renninger as Preacher of the Week from July 26-30. This week’s preacher is sup-ported by the Knobel Family Endowment.

He will serve as guest preacher of Lakeside’s live-streamed Commun- ity Worship Service at 10:30 a.m. Sun-day, July 26. A link to the livestream will be available at lakesideohio.com/calendar or facebook.com/lakesideohio on the day of the event.

Fr. Renninger’s sermon, titled “What Does Love Look Like?,” is based on 1 Corinthians 12:31-13:8.

Although we cannot yet worship in-person, you can still make a special gift to the worship service through a vir-tual giving plate at lakesideohio.com/to-day. We’re so grateful for your meaning-ful contributions to our community.

Fr. Renninger has served as guest preacher at Bay View Association in Michigan during 2017 and 2019. His ser-mons have also been heard through wid-er audiences via conferences and online platforms.

Fr. Renninger has been featured at the Festival of Homiletics and is a regular con-tributor to “A Sermon for Every Sunday,” an online resource that features video sermons by America’s best preachers for

use in worship, Bible study, small groups, Sunday school classes or individual use.

His passion for preaching may have been born from his love of music and complex contempla-tion. Born and raised in Pennsylvania, he studied piano, voice and guitar while in high school.

He attended Ursi-nus College in Penn-sylvania and received

degrees in philosophy and music history.He later attended The Catholic Univer-

sity of America, where he received grad-uate degrees in theology and liturgy. In 1993, Fr. Renninger was ordained a priest for the Diocese of Richmond and served as Vicar for Vocations and Rector of the Cathedral.

Today, Fr. Renninger is a priest of the Catholic Diocese of Richmond and serves as pastor of St. Mary’s Church in Rich-mond, Va.

Preacher of the Week:Fr. Michael A. Renninger

Supported by the Knobel Family Endowment

Through raising their five children, who are between the ages of 9 and 17, Bob and Jennifer Schuler have witnessed the importance of Lakeside’s seasonal employment firsthand.

“Our kids’ seasonal jobs at Lakeside gave them opportunities to learn respon-sibility, service and how to be part of a team,” said Jennifer. “Their jobs have taught them the value of working for something that you want and have in-stilled in them a strong work ethic.”

Bob and Jennifer love the family-ori-ented nature of Lakeside, as well as the community’s focus on mind, body and

spirit. These reasons have led the Schuler

family to choose Lakeside as their sea-sonal vacation destination. During the summer months, their children work as seasonal employees.

The Schulers’ children have worked at local businesses, such as Bluebird Café and at the pool and lakefront as life-guards. Bob and Jennifer understand the importance of these positions to both the employees and to Lakeside and decided to give a donation to underwrite a student seasonal employee at Lakeside this sum-mer.

In this Wellness Seminar, Certified Yoga Instructor and Soul Stretch Yoga studio owner, Rose Sabin, discusses the importance of self-love and self-care as it relates to stress management and achieving a more balanced life.

This seminar will be livestreamed to Lakeside’s website at lakesideohio.com/cal-endar and official Facebook page at facebook.com/lakesideohio.

The goal of yoga is not the pose, becoming flexible or standing on your head. The goal is to create space where you once were stuck; to unveil the layers of protection you’ve built around your heart; to appreciate your body as it is; to become aware of your mind and the noise it creates; and to make peace with your past, be in love with your present and be excited about the future. The goal of yoga is self-love and self-care.

Sabin will lead a simple breathing technique to help calm and center you whenever faced with a stressful situation.

10:30 a.m.- 12 p.m. Chautauqua Lecture Series: Toni Morrison in Memoriam: Art for Art’s Sake or Something Akin, VIRTUAL: Zoom link on Lakeside websiteAlthough omitted from the printed version of her Nobel Lecture, Toni Morrison began her Nobel speech with a reflection on the significance of storytelling.

Morrison believed narrative allows people to acquire and digest information. She

also believed that literature resists the demand to be like a political tract or finite an-swer to life’s questions. Yet, according to Morrison, because the U.S. has done such a terrible job teaching about Black life, we have often turned to stories by Black writers to do this social work.

This last lecture by Philathia Bolton, PhD, seeks to remember Morrison through reflecting on what she leaves for consideration as we think about a continued engage-ment with Black American literature. Visit lakesideohio.com/calendar and click on the event for Zoom link.

Bolton teaches undergraduate and graduate courses in African American literature and culture at the University of Akron.

10:30 a.m. Vearl Smith Historic Preservation Workshop: Rethinking Our Preservation Perspective, VIRTUAL: Zoom link on Lakeside websiteThe history of recreational communities and the Chautauqua Movement extends beyond Lakeside’s borders. The development of these communities correlates with larger trends in American history, such as historic preservation. Both movements sought to foster a greater understanding of culture, but both historic preservation and the Chautauqua Movement excluded the histories/perspectives of larger America.

Communities were segregated, and the history of people of color was largely un-protected by historic preservationists. Exploring the development of these wonderful places - why they were created and who they were created for, in addition to the his-tory of historic preservation - this lecture will explore how both the well-known and hidden histories of these places can and should be preserved today.

The lecture will conclude with a quick advocacy workshop on how to maximize the effectiveness of your communications with local/state/federal officials who make preservation decisions. Visit lakesideohio.com/calendar and click on the event for Zoom link.

Sarah Marsom has been an active part of the preservation and cultural resources field for more than a decade. Her work has included the creation of workshops and tours, as well as the successful completion of historic designations and specialty re-search projects. Marsom was recognized in 2018 by the National Trust for Historic Preservation as the recipient of the American Express Aspire Award and as an honor-ee on the inaugural “40 Under 40: People Saving Places” list.

Her work has been featured in Curbed, Traditional Building Magazine and the National Parks Service’s LGBTQ America Theme Study.

COMMUNITY NEWS

SARAH BRUNOTLAKESIDE CHAUTAUQUA ENVIRONMENTAL INTERN

The Hotel Lakeside Dining Room is recycling and composting for the first time in its history, part of a new initia-tive to improve Lakeside’s sustainability efforts. The restaurant is going through major changes this year, including new management, menus and sustainability goals.

Jim Switzer, Lakeside’s Senior V.P. of Municipal Services, explains that, “When Lakeside decided to manage the dining room, we felt it was a good fit and in line with our Board’s directives toward zero waste initiatives to include not only recy-cling of packaging but also food wastes.”

Switzer added that numerous restau-rants within Lakeside already have been making an effort to recycle cardboard and now the Hotel Lakeside Dining Room is becoming a part of the recycling commu-nity. The restaurant goes through count-less paper menus (a precaution taken due to COVID-19), glass bottles, aluminum cans, cardboard boxes and much more.

Throughout the month of July, the din-ing room has been measuring the amount of waste produced, an effort that will likely continue into early August. Every day, the Maintenance Crew comes by to pick up the recyclables and they are taken to the bins by the South Gate. There are many things to consider when taking on the task of recycling, however, it is still one of the most accessible ways to reduce your environmental impact.

The EPA estimates that 75% of Amer-ican waste stream is recyclable, yet only about 30% of it is recycled. In addition, 20% of landfill waste is food. All over the country, habits must change in order to eliminate these inefficiencies, and Lake-side wants to do its part.

According to the EPA, there are many benefits to recycling, including slowing the depletion of natural resources and

saving money during the manufacturing process. However, in order for these ef-ficiencies to reach their full potential, it is important that the recyclables are not contaminated. Contamination can in-clude some plastics/garbage that cannot be processed, or recyclable objects that do not have extra food rinsed off.

To avoid recycling contamination, the Hotel Lakeside Dining Room employees were trained to know the list of recycla-ble objects provided by Ottawa, San-dusky, Seneca Solid Waste Management District (recycleoss.org).

While recycling is important and has many benefits, there’s still a significant amount of other waste in the Dining Room. Composting offers an opportunity for some of this waste to be disposed of in a way that’s more beneficial and sus-tainable than a landfill.

Composting is the process of organic waste being broken down into a nutrient rich soil conditioner. Composting is fairly easy to implement within one household on a smaller scale, however, it becomes more complex within the restaurant in-dustry. In order to avoid pests and save some space, the Hotel Lakeside Dining Room has partnered with Barnes Nurs-ery, headquartered in Huron, to pick up the compostable materials every Tues-day and they take care of the composting from there.

Another benefit to working with Barnes (aside from the ease, and the saved space) is the ability for the dining room to compost more materials. Small-er/ personal composts are slightly more finicky and often cannot handle meat and most dairy products without generating horrible smells and a pest problem. How-ever, Barnes and its more industrial facil-ities can handle some of these products that can be intense on other compost bins.

For more information about compost-ing in your home, visit tinyurl.com/LKS-Dcompost.

Join the Lakeside Volunteer CorpsThe Lakeside Chautauqua Volunteer

Corps, a new initiative organized by the Lakeside Chautauqua Foundation Board, has been hard at work.

The Volunteer Corps, co-directed by Sally DePerro and Jack Allen, is an op-portunity for Lakesiders of all ages to help fill the gap of decreased labor in Lakeside by volunteering.

“Since it’s been founded nearly 150 years ago, Lakeside has always had ded-icated volunteers,” says Allen. “The goal of this effort, driven by the budget diffi-culties this year, is to make the volunteer process simpler and to attract new friends and families to help out.”

If you’re interested in joining the Lakeside Chautauqua Volunteer Corps, download a volunteer application at lakesideohio.com/volunteer and return it to [email protected] or the Lakeside Chautauqua Foundation (LCF) Office, located at 217 Walnut Ave, or call (419) 798-4461, ext. 246.

Cleanup of the Dock Needed: Volun-teers are needed to pick up garbage and debris along the dock and waterfront, led by Ron and Mary Ann Janke. Please meet Ron and Mary Ann at the entrance of the dock at 9 a.m. Wednesdays. Wear gloves and bring a bag for collection.

Mulching Help Needed: We still have a variety of mulching projects around the grounds for those who are interested in tending to garden beds. To help Lake-side’s Gardening & Grounds Crew, con-

tact the Lakeside Chautauqua Foundation Office at [email protected], (419) 798-4461 ext. 246 or by stop by 217 Walnut Ave.

Thank you! Hoover Auditorium Doors Painted:Even though we aren’t able to enjoy Lakeside’s wonderful arts programming at Hoover Auditorium this summer, we still want to share our appreciation for the volunteers who are dedicating their time to refurbish its exterior.

“The Lakeside staff is extremely grateful to the many Lakesiders who have stepped up to volunteer for special projects this summer. And I’m particu-larly thankful for the Men’s Bible Study group for taking on the job of painting the exterior doors of Hoover Auditorium. We appreciate their assistance in caring for this important historic structure. The doors look great - way to go! Thank you, Men’s Bible Study!” - Shirley Stary, Vice President of Arts Programming.

Thank you! Wellness Campus En-trance Power Washed: We would like to give a special thanks to Lakeside Volun-teer Corps member Darrell Waite. Darrell power washed and cleaned the entrance of the Grindley Aquatic & Wellness Campus over the weekend. Thank you, Darrell, for making sure this beloved and well-used space is clean for Lakeside friends, families and guests!

Tennis Clinic, July 23-26Lakeside welcomes JoAnne Russell and

Steve Vaughan to lead a Tennis Clinic from July 23-26.

Russell is an American former professional tennis player who, with her playing partner He-len Gourley Cawley, won the 1977 Wimbledon Ladies’ Doubles title by defeating Chris Evert and Rosie Casals in the first round and the top-ranked team of Martina Navratilova and Betty Stöve.

Russell played on the pro circuit until 1988, winning three Grand Slam Masters crowns in doubles, six Women’s Tennis Association titles and a World Cup Singles title. Now retired, she is a tennis pro at Grey Oaks Country Club in Naples, Fla.

Vaughan is an elite professional tennis

player. After college, he served as a tennis pro at several country clubs in Columbus, Ohio and Naples. In 2015, Vaughan was hired as Director of Tennis at The Player Club & Spa.

Clinic sessions will be set up in 75-minute timeslots organized according to skill level; 15 players per session. Players should arrive 10 minutes prior to the start of their clinic session. Register online at lakesideohio.com/tenniscli-nic. Registration is $20 per person, per clinic, payable by cash or credit at the Williams Tennis Campus prior to clinics. Admission to Lakeside and parking are not included in the registration fee.

Please note: All adult and youth tennis programs are cancelled at the Williams Tennis Campus during the clinic.

“It’s so important to support Lakeside financially so that Lakeside can uphold its mission,” said Bob. “And one of the best ways we can ensure that Lakeside can uphold its mission is by ensuring that there’s sufficient staff to help carry out the events, programs, operations and maintenance.”

Seasonal positions are vital to ensur-ing that the Chautauqua experience runs smoothly and efficiently. However, due to COVID-19-related budget cuts, Lakeside is not able to hire many of our vital high school and college-aged seasonal em-ployees this summer.

By giving a gift of $4,000 (or $333 per month), you can underwrite the salary of one of the 60 high school and college stu-dents who are employed at Lakeside this Chautauqua season.

“Bob and I were inspired to underwrite

a student seasonal employee because we can see that the COVID-19 pandemic is really affecting Lakeside, and we want to help Lakeside in a meaningful way,” said Jennifer.

Join the Schulers and give a gift to un-derwrite a seasonal student employee.

For more information, contact the Lakeside Chautauqua Foundation Of-fice at (419) 798-4461, ext. 246 or mail checks payable to the Lakeside Chautau-qua Foundation, 236 Walnut Ave., Lake-side, OH 43440. You can also make an in-person donation at the Lakeside Chau-tauqua Foundation Office, located at 217 Walnut Ave.

For questions about underwriting a seasonal staff member, contact Director of Development Alana Tarry at [email protected] or (330) 608-6291.

Hotel Lakeside Dining Room takes on sustainability

Faith Walk Devotional bookletAs a gift from Lakeside’s Religious

Life pillar, complimentary Faith Walk Devotional booklets are available at the Administration Office, Waterfront/Infor-mation Center, hotels, Welcome Center and Fifth Street/South Gates.

Lakeside is a special place. It has be-come sacred ground for many through the years. We invite you to make a “spiritual pilgrimage” through Lakeside, stopping at the 16 places identified in the booklet.

Read the printed Scripture passages

and reflections, and spend as much time as you choose in meditation and prayer. You may choose to go from place to place all at once, or go to one or more of these places each day. “Journey” alone, or take someone with you.

We hope this booklet will help you enjoy the beauty and tranquility of Lake-side, and that these meditations will en-hance your spiritual life and energize you for the future.

Virtual Photography ShowThe 45th Annual Lakeside Photogra-

phy Show will take place virtually from July 26-Sept. 7. The online exhibit will display work by amateur photographers from Lakeside and beyond.

This year’s judge is Pam Johnston-Ke-mer, a photographer based in Sandusky, Ohio who specializes in wedding, family

and senior photography. Award winners will be listed at lakesideohio.com/pho-tographyshow.

As part of Lakeside’s commitment to nurturing mind, body and spirit, we are pleased to offer a program in Spiritual Direction. Spiritual Direction is a minis-try that focuses on caring for the soul and helping searching souls to find their way.

Spiritual Direction is not therapy, and it’s not problem solving. But through Spiritual Direction, we offer compassion-ate listening and we seek to help people find their way to their spiritual home.

The Rev. Sharon Seyfarth Garner, Ginny Pippin and the Rev. Tom Frost have agreed to serve as Lakeside’s Spiri-tual Directors this season. All three have been specially trained in the art of spiri-tual listening and direction.

The Spiritual Direction program con-tinues through the entire season.

Because of the specialized character of this ministry, a fee ordinarily would be charged for this service. Due to a spe-cial donation that has been made, we are pleased to offer the first session of Spiri-tual Direction at no cost.

Are you interested in learning more about this ministry? Contact (419) 798-4461, ext. 214 to request a confidential appointment. Let us provide a companion for your journey and help you find your way.

Lakeside Heritage Society eventsEVAN ENGELHART LAKESIDE HERITAGE SOCIETY MANAGER OF OPERATIONS

The Lakeside Heritage Society (LHS) is dedicated to collecting, preserving and exhibiting the history of Lakeside, Marblehead, Danbury and the American Chautauqua Movement.

The museum, archives and educational programs are supported through membership dues, donations and proceeds from special projects.

Anyone interested in preserving Lakeside’s history is welcome to join LHS: $25 (single), $40 (family), $75 (contributing) and $150 (patron). Membership forms are available at the museum or visit lakesideheritagesociety.org for details.

LHS offers Lakeside Historic House Markers and customized brick pavers. Contact [email protected] for more information.

Discover new and renovated exhibits at Heritage Hall Museum, 238 Maple Ave., with curator Carolyn Beears. Children of all ages are also invited to take part in history treasure hunts and puzzles. The gift shop sells books, toys and maps.

The museum is free and open from 10 a.m.-12 p.m. and 1-4:30 p.m. Tuesday-Saturday and 1-430 p.m. Sunday. The museum will shut down daily from 12-1 p.m. for sanitation and cleaning.

Explore historic documents, photographs and newspapers at the LHS Archives, 324 W. Third St. To research a specific topic, the Archives

is open by appointment only; contact Evan Engelhart at [email protected].

The LHS is creating a digital database containing info about each cottage. Renters, owners and Lakesiders are invited to visit the Archives or contact [email protected].

Together we can help our world by making one change each week. Always carry reusable containers with you to restaurants for carrying home leftovers. This will help reduce the amount of Styrofoam and other single-use containers going into the landfill. Several restaurants in Lakeside welcome those who bring their own containers for carry-out orders, ice cream, etc.

2020 Lakeside Chautauqua Foundation Board of Directors

As a reminder and to keep our community healthy and safe, we ask that you review Lakeside’s safety protocols and increase your diligence in taking precautions.

If you feel you have any symptoms at all, please refrain from visiting Lakeside Chautauqua.

If you are already in Lakeside and have symptoms, please contact your doc-tor, quarantine for up to 14 days, wear a mask/face covering at all times, maintain 6 feet of distance between you and oth-ers and use hand sanitizer and wash hands frequently with soap and water. If your doctor recommends that you be tested for COVID-19, tests are performed nearby at Magruder Hospital.

As a reminder, if you have tested pos-itive for COVID-19 during or after your visit to Lakeside, immediately notify the Ottawa County Health Department at (419) 734-6800 and Lakeside Chau-tauqua at (419) 798-4461. The Ottawa County Health Department can assist you with proper quarantine procedures and access to health care in the area, to pro-tect you and others in the community.

As of right now, there have not been any COVID-19 cases reported to Lake-side Chautauqua. We remain in close contact with our local health officials to learn of any reported cases in the sur-rounding area and at Lakeside.

Here’s what Lakeside Chautauqua is doing to increase hygiene and infec-tion prevention during COVID-19:

• Conducting daily employee health-checks/taking temperatures prior to each shift

• Employees will be wearing masks at venues and public spaces

• Emphasizing employees to have good hygiene, wash hands frequently and clean workspaces before, during and after shifts

• Programming will be moved out-doors whenever possible to reduce the likelihood of transmission and to practice safe social distancing

• Plexiglass barriers will separate em-ployees and guests in areas of inter-action whenever possible

• Hand sanitizer will be available in public restrooms and in other select locations throughout Lakeside

• Cleaning of shared equipment at shuffleboard, miniature golf, tennis, pickleball and sailing

• Extra cleaning of high-traffic indoor areas: hotel lobbies, Hotel Lakeside porch and Administration Office

• Additional cleaning of children’s ar-eas like playground

Here’s what Lakeside Chautauqua is not able to do to minimize COVID-19 risks:

• We are not cleaning large public areas like the dock, beach, Pavilion decks and streets

• We are not cleaning the numerous benches and picnic tables that are placed throughout Lakeside

• There is no way that Safety Services and other Lakeside employees can constantly enforce COVID-19 rec-ommendations, such as social dis-tancing and wearing of masks. The State of Ohio and Ottawa County are not able to police it, and neither is our security team and Lakeside staff. It will take everyone in Lakeside do-ing their part and abiding by the rules this summer

Here’s what we expect from you and your guests during your visit to Lake-side Chautauqua:

• Protect you and your family as need-ed through the use of personal pro-tective equipment, such as masks, social distancing and abiding by the recommendations and executive or-ders set forth by Government entities

• To protect yourself and others, Lake-side recommends that guests wear masks in public spaces. There may be independently owned businesses (shops, restaurants, services, rentals, bed & breakfasts, etc.) that require customers to wear masks

• Adhere to safe social distancing practices. Respect 6 feet of physical distance between you and others at all times

• Bring and use hand sanitizer and wash hands frequently with soap and water

• Bring/use sanitizing spray or wipes to sanitize benches and seating

• Bring/use sanitizing spray or wipes to wipe down picnic tables before and after eating

• Obey “safe play” procedures out-lined at each recreation venue

• When in line at businesses, events and public restrooms, please follow the procedures for entering and exit-ing and proper social distancing

• If you feel you have any symptoms at all, do not leave your cottage until all symptoms are cleared, or return home to quarantine

• Immediately notify the Ottawa County Health Department at (419) 734-6800 and Lakeside at (419) 798-4461 if you have tested positive for COVID-19 during or after your visit to Lakeside

Thank you for your cooperation. Lakeside is selling branded masks for $11 at the Administration Office, located at 236 Walnut Ave.

HP&DRB As one of the remaining Chautauqua

communities in the U.S., Lakeside has a rich history and range of architectural styles that create a unique sense of place.

Designated in 1983 as a Historic Dis-trict on the National Register of Historic Places, Lakeside is guided by the Sec-retary of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties, in ad-dition to our Rules & Regulations and Gaede Serne Guidelines.

The Historic Preservation & Design Review Board (HP&DRB) manages change to Lakeside properties to preserve the character of the historic district.

There are many benefits of a historic district, some being economic, environ-mental and cultural. A huge benefit is that historic preservation demonstrates a commitment to sustainability by reduc-ing environmental impacts.

Stewardship ensures that future gen-erations will enjoy Lakeside’s historic character and heritage, and Lakeside property owners are secure in the knowl-edge that their long-term investment will be protected.

Property owners who wish to make external physical changes to their Lake-side cottage must submit plans to the HP&DRB in order to receive a Certificate of Appropriateness before alterations are made.

The board meets monthly from March-November. Applications, regula-tions, meeting schedules and addition-al details are available at the Lakeside Chautauqua Administration Office or online at lakesideohio.com/ historic. Questions or comments may be directed to HP&DRB Chair Susan Mack at sr-mack916@gmail. com.
