- Another feather in Lakewood's art cap: The City of Lakewood scores the ultra-funky Camp Christmas- and it's set to make its debut on November 18 at Heritage Lakewood Belmar Park. The holiday extravaganza will take full advantage of the park's six acres and five buildings. (Westword)
- Green Mountain Water and Sewer District is in the middle of a recall election, and one of the members that is being recalled, is well-known for his foul-mouthed screeds. If this is how elected officials act at public meetings, maybe they should just quit instead of forcing Green Mountain voters to recall them? Totally Lakewood. (Vimeo)
