SoPac Trail Clean Up
Saturday, December 10th, 2022, 8:30am at SoPac Trail
In January 2020, our clean up team began picking up litter on the SoPac Trail adjacent to our neighborhood.  The previous seven years our clean up team maintained an area near the spillway and Winsted Road at White Rock Lake. Our new clean up site begins under the Mockingbird Bridge continuing to the Trestle Bridge near White Rock Park. The clean up takes about an hour. We meet the 2nd Saturday of every month at 8:30am.
 
Singles, couples and families are welcome. Kids love using the grabbers and take pride in picking up litter. Teens may earn community service hours and may flex their hours.  If you are interested in joining our team or need more information please email Chairperson Pat Watson, Neighbors@LakewoodTrails.net or call her at
214 531 1299.

CHRISTMAS MEAL DELIVERY TO NE DALLAS POLICE
Sunday, December 25th, 2022, 11am at NE DPD Police Station, 9915 Northwest Hwy
Lakewood Trails is providing a Christmas meal for the Dallas Police Department Northeast Substation, both 2nd and 3rd shifts. For over 10 years, our LTNA neighbors have generously contributed either food or cash donations to help make these efforts a great success and have helped deliver the meals. Needless to say, our support has been much appreciated by our local police personnel who work during the holidays.
 
If you would like to help deliver the meal (kids are welcome!), we will meet at the Northeast DPD substation, 9915 Northwest Hwy, at 11:00am on Christmas morning. We are delivering catered food from Central Market.
