NEW! Lakeside Heritage Society invites you to "Be Our Guest" at a fun, new event during the Lighthouse Festival on Saturday, October 10. Take a step back in time at Hotel Lakeside. There will be bellhops, the piano keys will ti**le in the lobby, and you will be invited to visit with some of the most famous guests from the 1940s in their hotel rooms. Leave with a tasty food treat that they might have enjoyed during their stays in Lakeside Chautauqua.

Tickets are $10 per person, and reservations are limited. Stop by the Heritage Archives to purchase yours soon. You can also do so by phone: 419-798-5519.
