Please join your Lakewood Trails neighbors for a Cinco de Mayo celebration on Sunday, May 5th at 4pm. 
A taco bar will be set up on the West block of Bob O Link where it dead-ends by 7105 Lyre Lane.
Food tickets must be purchased prior to the event!
 
There will be an extensive taco bar catered by Mexico Lindo. Your ticket will give you three tacos, rice, beans, queso and guacamole, plus chips and a full condiment bar consisting of salsas, jalapenos, cilantro and onions, sour cream, shredded cheeses, pico de gallo and lettuce.
 
The price per plate is $13. Tickets for food must be pre-purchased either through our website using PayPal, Venmo @LakewoodTrailsNA (please put Tacos in the comments), or scan the QR code below. The cutoff date to purchase tickets is Wednesday, May 1st. 
 
No day-of tickets will be available for purchase. PREPAY only!
 
There will be a check-in when you arrive to confirm your ticket purchase, and give you your plates and utensils for the taco bar.
 
Margaritas will be provided by Amy Malooley with Compass Real Estate. If you would like something else to drink, please feel free to BYOB. Waters will be provided by the Lakewood Trails Neighborhood Association.
 
Please bring chairs or blankets to sit and hang out with all your favorite neighbors. The street will NOT be closed, so please be mindful of traffic and respectful of neighbors yards.
 
The truck will arrive at 3:30pm to set up and we will start serving around 4:30pm. We will be asking for volunteers to help for an hour shift at the drink or food station. A sign up genius will be circulated closer to May 5th.

 

Our clean up team picks up litter on the SoPac Trail adjacent to our neighborhood on the second Saturday of each month, starting at 8:30am. Our clean up site begins under the Mockingbird Bridge continuing to the Trestle Bridge near White Rock Park. The clean up takes about an hour.   

 

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.

Join us to help maintain the Blackland Prairie Remnant we adopted in 2017 by planting new seeds and removing weeds and invasive plants. Lakewood Trails volunteers will join TCA volunteers in continuing to remove the invasive species from the prairie. We will have extra tools and gloves and water available.
 
Exotic plants can escape from yards into the wild, disrupting natural communities and ecological processes. Invasive species often outcompete native plants by overgrowing spaces and decreasing biodiversity. They serve little use for native wildlife because they have not coevolved together. We need your help at Lakewood Park to remove invasive plants from one of Dallas' few remaining prairies. You'll help restore this prairie toward ecological health and rewild it to benefit bees, butterflies, bats, beetles, birds, and other pollinators. Please join us!

Interactive and educational activities for all included Sidewalk chalk art, garden kids crafts, Master Gardeners' advice, getting the buzz from local beekeepers, and free lemonade and refreshments. More information.

The Dallas County Master Gardener Tour will feature 5 private home gardens and a public demonstration garden, as well as a new concept to the tour this year – two “bonus” gardens that are just too packed full of native and adaptive botanical marvels to leave out. The SoPac Pollinator Garden will be featured on the tour. More information. Tickets are available for $18 in advance or $22 at the door. Purchase tickets.
