Happy 5 year Anniversary to FITNESS EDGE. Owner, Marty Velasco offers many new program options for every level of fitness … Happy 2 Year Anniversary to PUMA YOGA offering beginner classes through advanced, yoga for kids and even Mom & baby classes! … Speaking of kids, it was already time for the New Teacher’s Luncheon held by the CHAMBER OF COMMERCE where each of the 15 new teachers in Lakewood received a gift donated by our local businesses … THE HEIRLOOM HOME will be opening soon in the building at the SW corner of West Clifton and Detroit.  This building owner’s dream is to open a shop that will accept household donations for resale and then donate 100% of the profits to scholarships for children’s classes in the arts.  Watch for more details soon! … Starting in September also watch for more Business and Chamber news when TheLO starts our new LAKEWOOD BUSINESS PAGE  …  A bit of non-profit news is  THE TRINITY LAKEWOOD COMMUNITY OUTREACH (TLCO)- “Pastor Paula” Maeder Connor shares some of their current projects such as the backpack and school supply collection,  youth theatre group,  and an ongoing fundraiser at 56 WEST. Yes! Another good cause that Don Farrone, one of the owners, is supporting! Enjoy a delicious and unique 56 West menu item on Sunday and 15% of your bill will go to support the many fine projects of TLCO.  Also, see what other non-profits will benefit each month from regular fundraisers on Mondays … And if you’re interested in another style of delicious food in our ever-diverse Lakewood, why not visit NIKO’S - reopened on Detroit- for authentic Greek cuisine.  Variety and community involvement in both non and for-profit businesses make Lakewood a delightful place to think globally and support our business neighbors locally!
