Lakewood 101
Lakewood city government is bringing back the popular "Lakewood 101" class, a shorter version of "Lakewood University." Citizens can get firsthand information about the important issues of the day with detailed handouts and clear explanations. These courses have been popular because there's time to talk specifics as well as the context of important subjects. I've yet to meet anyone who didn't rave about these classes because the classes offer all the specific information you ever wanted, without filters.
Previous sessions included an introduction to several aspects of public policy and ran over a couple of evenings. The latest version of Lakewood 101 demands less time, but should still be very informative. This year’s focus will be on public safety and economic development. Because of that specialized focus, and because it's been awhile since the last classes, previous Lakewood University students are welcome to attend and should certainly benefit.
It's all on one evening, 5:30 p.m. on Wednesday, June 3. The class will be at the new police station, 9401 Lakewood Drive SW.
RSVPS are requested at 589-2489 or citymanager@cityoflakewood.us. Doors will open at 5 p.m. with refreshments.
