June photo contest winner: This great story about family night at the renovated Glennon Height's pool shows that the city's work really means something to our residents. (See the previous monthly winners by scrolling below or visiting the photo contest winners.)

Answer to May's trivia question: Porter Park was named for the family who once owned the land. Daniel Porter was a master gardener, and he and his wife, Phyllis, grew vegetables, fruits and flowers, in what was known as an “urban truck farm,” which populated the area in the years before Lakewood became a city. The city plans to carry on the farming tradition in the new Porter Park.
