ISLAND CLUBHOUSE GRAND OPENING |
|
The Lakes of Mount Dora moved a big step forward during the week of April 14, 2008. The event was the Grand Opening of the Island Clubhouse, which was received with much enthusiasm.
On April 15th, the residents enjoyed a pre-grand opening party where they had an opportunity to meet their neighbors and tour their beautiful new Clubhouse. The Grand Opening for the public was held on Saturday and visitors were welcomed to explore the multi-purpose facility. The clubhouse has a Ballroom for large gatherings, such as dinners, stage entertainment and other events. In addition, everyone was awed by the large designer walk-in pool attached to a four lane competition lap pool. Other rooms in this six million dollar complex are a high-tech computer room with high-speed internet; large library and reading room; fitness and exercise room overlooking the pool area; billiards and game room with a separate card room; and men's and women's locker rooms and shower facilities.

CANOEING AND KAYAKING ACTIVITIES |

How many of you remember going on one of those canoe trips, sponsored by the Boy/Girl Scouts, when you were a kid? We were more daring to jump into a canoe and expected to meet at the end of a run without getting soaked.
At Legacy of Leesburg, canoeing and kayaking is an activity that involves more than 50 residents. On any one of the monthly trips, there are 20 or 25 members who have much more experience than when they were kids years ago.

CHARIOT RACES IN CENTRAL FLORIDA |
|
When you hear about Chariot races, one thinks about the movies that show Greek and Roman chariot races and the movie Ben-Hur. Hold on…there’s competition racing right here in Central Florida!
Modern competition began in 1970, called combined carriage driving – an ancient sport dating back to the Greeks and Romans, when Prince Philip of Britain turned to the sport after an injury that ended his polo days. It has evolved into a three-part sport which includes dressage, a cross-country marathon and a “cones” obstacle course.
