LCA Board Recruitment

by on Jan.10, 2026, under Association News

ARE YOU INTERESTED IN GETTING MORE INVOLVED WITH OUR NEIGHBORHOOD?

If so, please consider running for the Lakewood Civic Association Board. 

We’ve all been exposed to propaganda, misinformation and false rumors. The LCA is no different as falsehoods and inaccurate information about this organization are occasionally shared online. Being on the LCA Board of Directors is a great way to make a positive difference in our neighborhood while getting accurate information on what the LCA does (or doesn’t) do. And as a reminder our meetings are open to all Lakewood residents with the date of the next meeting posted on our website.

The LCA Board typically meets once a month so it’s a small investment of time with a potential for big community impact. If you are interested in running for the LCA Board please send in your name, address and phone number by using the ‘Contacts’ tab on this LCA website. You can also turn in a request to run for the LCA Board through the LCA Facebook site (https://www.facebook.com/LakewoodCivicAssociationBaytownTX/) Nominations will be open until February 28th.

Suggestions for Protecting Your Property

by on Dec.24, 2025, under Neighborhood Watch

from Lakewood Neighborhood Watch

*Turn your exterior lights on at night

*Lock up your vehicles and all of the exterior doors to your home, including your garage, storage shed or other structures

*Be discrete about what you share on social media, especially travel plans

*Don’t put out boxes from gifts or expensive purchases on the curb

*Create a spot on your porch to conceal delivered packages, behind a bench, an urn, or planter, so that they cannot be seen from the street

*Having a doorbell camera & security cameras do help deter crime

*Get to know your neighbors, this is the best security system there is

*If you’re leaving for more than a couple days ask a family member, neighbor or friend to pickup your mail, or contact the Post Office to hold your mail and the same with newspapers

All of these suggestions will not get rid of crime, but they sure will help!

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAVE AN AWESOME NEW YEAR !!!

Attention all Santa Helpers!
Santa and Mrs. Claus, along with the Lakewood community and Baytown youth programs, are excited to host the fourth annual Holiday Christmas Parade & Food Drive on Saturday, December 6th.  We will be collecting non-perishable food items for Hearts and Hands of Baytown from 5:30 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.

The Parade will run from 5:30 p.m. to 6:30/6:45 p.m. If you miss us, don’t worry—food donations can still be dropped off at Travis Elementary until 7:00 p.m.

How to Donate:

  • Along the Parade Route: Anyone who would like to donate non-perishable food items can flag down one of the golf carts in the parade. The carts will pick up your donations and deliver them to the food collection point at Travis Elementary.
  • At Travis Elementary: You can also drive to Travis Elementary School (100 Robin Rd, Baytown, TX 77520) to drop off their donations in person in the parking lot in front of the cafeteria, from 5:30 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.

Parade Details:

  • The parade will include a variety of vehicles, such as golf carts, ATVs, four-wheelers, bikes, motorcycles, cars, and trucks.
  • The parade will begin at 5:30 p.m. in front of Travis Elementary and end in the parking lot in front of the cafeteria (parade route attached).

We encourage all vehicles in the parade to be festively decorated for the holiday season! The LCA will award prizes to the top three decorated vehicles. We’d love for you to join in!

Important Parade Info:

  • Please arrive by 5:00 p.m. We will start the parade promptly at 5:30 p.m. (5:00 pm allows time to lineup and rollout).
  • Judging will begin at the conclusion of the parade, so all the lights and decorations can be fully appreciated during the judging.

We look forward to seeing our wonderful community come together for this festive and charitable event!
