We'd like to extend a heartfelt Thank You and express our gratitude to Clare Kaminski and Babe (Anna Marie Gray) for their many, many years of service to the LPECA and our community. Both of these amazing ladies recently decided to  "retire" from the LPECA Board that they have been serving on for many decades. Please take a moment to thank them for their service and welcome our newest board members.

LPE Civic Association held their biennial elections held last month.  We'd like to welcome and announce the Newest Members of the LPE Board of Directors who will be joining Sonia Carr, President (Stillwood Dr) and Peggy Crowley, President-Elect (Lake Joyce Dr) in February to begin their 2 year term :

We'd like to recognize and thank Clare Kaminski for her many, many years of serving as a member of the LPECA Board of Directors and her longtime commitment and dedication to our community as our Treasurer.  Clare will be staying on as a volunteer and through the transition to the new board.  Please welcome all our 2022-2024 Board Members. 

The November regular Monthly Meeting & Elections of the LPE Civic Association 

Has BEEN POSTPONED  UNTIL EARLY 2022

Due to circumstances beyond of our control the LPECA  Biennial Elections of our volunteer Board of Directors is being postponed until early 2022.  The elections are open to residents of the LPE that are current members of the LPE Civic Association. 

If you are interested in running for a Director position please contact the LPECA by email at info@lpeca.org with your name, address, email, and phone and we will contact you. Interested candidates should make sure they can make the commitment to the minimum 2-year term, be available to attend monthly meetings, attend and support as a volunteer at our  planned quarterly events, and understand the basic requirements and legal responsibilities of serving as a board member for a nonprofit corporation. This is 100% a volunteer position. 

REMINDER:  This is NOT the elections for the LPE Independent Special District Board of Supervisors.  That election is handled via the Pasco County Supervisor of Elections Office and requires a Candidate to complete the State of Florida Election Pre-qualifying Process to be on the November General Election Ballot in 2022.  

Due to recent LPEISD policy changes and additional legal agreements now being  required by the LPEISD for the Civic Association's Appreciation Day the LPE Civic Association will be postponing our Civic Association Appreciation Day until the spring of 2022.  Thank you to all of our sponsors and volunteers and we'll be looking forward to seeing everyone this spring at Laird Park! 

November's regular monthly meeting of the LPE Civic Association will include the biennial elections of the volunteer Board of Directors. This election is open to residents of the LPE and current members of the LPE Civic Association.
