First Ice Cream Sundae Social a Big Success!

The Waluga Neighborhood Association’s First Ice Cream Sundae Social was a big success. Dozens of neighbors were served ice cream by some of Lake Oswego City Hall’s finest, including Mayor Kent Studebaker, Fire Chief Larry Goff, Police Chief Don Johnson, Planning Commisioner Bill Ward, and City Council Member, Skip O’Neill. Even Chase the K9 stopped by for a lick!

Most of the neighbors won great raffle prizes donated by area businesses. The weather even cooperated, as it wasn’t too hot to enjoy an ice cream sundae.
