Shop Lake Forest is a Success

New mobile app introduced

Hundreds of people showed up on Sunday for "Shop Lake Forest". There were dozens of businesses as well as civic organizations present. There were rides for kids, face painting, and balloon animals.

This year the City moved the event from the Arbors Shopping Center to the Sports Park. The reason was to accommodate more businesses.

All 5 members of the City Council were present along with several staff members and Commission members Victor Sherr and Jim Rosenberg.

The City formally introduce our new Shop and Dine mobile app. It is not quite "finished" and has a little fine-tuning to be done, but it is certainly functional. You can download from the App Store or Click Here

The Shop and Dine App is the first phase of our transition to mobile communications. The second phase will allow even more communication between residents and the city. More about that in a future article.
