LakeVille offers safe recreational space for the community
The track located at the main campus of LakeVille Community Schools in Otisville, is now re-open to the public. Access to the complex had been limited to school related sports and practices for several years, but Superintendent Dr. James Yake told the Tribune that it is now available to the community once more. “We want the district to be a place where the community is welcome. I know in a community like ours, there are limited places for residents to safely exercise. As long as we can continue to maintain a safe environment for our students, we would like to explore other opportunities to support the community. We want to be a place where the community feels like they belong,” Yake expressed.
