Lake Cares Needs Donations!
We especially need donations during the summer when children are out of school -- and many parents are hard pressed to afford lunches. Saint Philip's Lutheran Church of Mount Dora will have a Peanut Butter and Jelly Drive in June, and the Vacation Bible School at First Presbyterian will hold a Macaroni and Cheese Drive June 28 to July 2 that will especially benefi t children in our area.

If your church, youth group, mission committee or Sunday School class is interested in collecting food for Lake Cares, give us a call at 383-0100 and we can help you with information, posters, and even a truck to help you deliver food to the pantry! Similarly, we need continuing help from individuals and local businesses, so that our out-of-school children continue to eat healthily on a regular basis. Don't forget that dropoff boxes for Lake Cares Gets RESULTS!

Tavares Chamber Preparing New Map
If you want to reach newcomers and visitors in the Tavares area, then you want to be in the new Tavares Chamber of Commerce Map.

The bulk of the folks who visit our Chamber are here because they want information. The ? rst thing they look for is a map. They want to know where to eat, where to shop and about professional services. This map helps them ? nd their way around town, and if you advertise they will see your business ? rst. An added bonus for advertisers will be an electronic version that will be linked to our Chamber website at no additional charge.

This map brochure helps newcomers and visitors. It includes points of interest, landmarks, boat ramps, and important to know facts and phone numbers. Your company will receive tremendous visibility due to the utility of this highly requested map. Best of all, itis distributed for two years.
