One of my very favorite fall events, The Annual Art Show, sponsored by the LOW Visual Arts Council, is fast approaching! Held October 15th and 16th, this fun annual event allows local artists, both professional and amateur, to showcase their work and gives you the opportunity to take it home! Get ready to view works from artists of past years: Pete Brown’s oil paintings, Bob Gibson’s photos, Helga Birdsong’s floral arrangements, and my friend, Patty Bell’s, watercolors. Patty is also a swan enthusiast and has been my partner in a few swan rescues. If you’ve never seen her swan watercolors, you simply must…They are stunning! Nate Smith, who amazed us with driftwood sailboats last year, plans to expand his exhibit for 2016. Martha Manigross, a new resident who will be participating for the first time, creates wearable art and wall hangings.
Forms are available in the Holcomb Building lower level foyer and at the Community Center if you would like to participate. Please contact Jan Moore at 972-9355 or Sallie Wallace at 972-0412 if you have questions.

By Pat Licata, REALTOR Just a friendly reminder to check out the newly remodeled Lake of the Woods’ Fareways Cafe. If you haven’t been there since the remodel, come on down and enjoy all-day breakfast, salads, burgers, and sandwiches, while enjoying a great view of the golf course from the porch before you’ll be “stuck” inside enjoying the cozy fireplace! New food, new drinks, and new atmosphere abound. My friend and client, Ginny, had breakfast and a great Bloody Mary there today!

The LOWA Board of Directors will join the LOW Civic Club in honoring the more than 200 members who serve on Lake of the Woods committees. A reception recognizing our committee members will be held at the Clubhouse, Wednesday, August 10, from 5-6 PM. All Lake of the Woods residents are cordially invited to show their appreciation to our neighbors who spend a substantial amount of time and effort making Lake of the Woods such a great place to live.
Volunteers serve on 21 separate committees, which all meet at least once per month. Most committees are comprised of seven voting members, plus alternates and advisors. The committees serve as advisors to the Board of Directors. Since committees reconstitute next month, this is the perfect opportunity for the community to say “thank you” to those people who have represented us so well during the past year.
“Be Concerned, Be Informed, Be Involved” is the motto of the LOW Civic Club, which hosts monthly speakers and provides an open forum where homeowners can learn about issues that affect their lives, interests, and investment in the LOW community. We hope to see you on Wednesday, August 10!
