Please join us in recognizing Ken Martin as the latest recipient of the Lakewood Good Neighbor award. Ken has lived in Lakewood most of his life and has been assisting neighbors while also keeping our neighborhood looking nice for decades. He’s been one of the first to aid many neighbors cut up fallen limbs, insulate water pipes, mow yards and help with various home repairs. Ken worked with the Sea Scouts to trench and install the irrigation system for our new Lakewood sign and takes care of the landscaping. He is on the Board of the Lakewood Neighborhood Watch and his volunteer efforts have made Neighborhood Night Out a successful event for many years. His outgoing and friendly attitude has made our neighborhood the best place to live.

Please help us congratulate Jennifer Simpson for being recognized as latest recipient of the Lakewood Good Neighbor Award. Jennifer goes out of her way to make a positive impact on our community. Last year she worked with the City to ‘Adopt’ a section of Bayway Drive from Pin Oak Drive to Baker Road to keep it clean. Jennifer has been coordinating the quarterly clean-ups along Bayway Drive, which presents a much nicer view coming into our neighborhood.
