This past January, the local Lake Forest Park Youth Council held their annual Christmas Tree Recycling Event. Donations were asked of people to help fund the Lake Forest Park Police Department’s Nurturing Trust Program. The event raised a total of $210.75, with all proceeds directly benefiting towards the program.

Other events the Lake Forest Park Youth Council is involved in range from volunteering at the Safety Fair, Halloween event at Third Place Commons, to creating holiday cards for members of the community.

Youth Council is also planning on assisting with the 14th Annual Earth Smart Green Fair March 11th.

The Lake Forest Park Youth Council is still currently accepting new member applications for the 2016 - 2017 school year.

Members should be an active member of the Lake Forest Park community. Students from Shorecrest High School and 8th graders specifically from Kellogg Middle School are highly encouraged to apply.

Meetings are held at the Lake Forest Park City Hall once a month. Students are also able to earn community service hours though membership.
