LAKE ARROWHEAD AIRPORT--fly up for air!

Lake Arrowhead really is close to "everything!" We're only an hour from Palm Springs and a little over an hour to Los Angeles or Orange County---and that is by automobile. But what about by plane? Lake Arrowhead ALSO has an airport and some folks can "FLY UP FOR AIR." However, the airport is private and, at this time, you need to have permission from the owner, MARK BAYLEY.
LAKE ARROWHEAD AIRPORT has hopes of becoming a premier transportation provider for the Lake Arrowhead Resort area, eventually. The runway is perfect for most general aircrafts and currently provides private business and recreation travel for firefighting, air evacuation and emergency landing for all public agencies in our local mountains. The airport is located 2.5 miles north of the Lake Arrowhead. This private airport has been in use for over 50 years and has plenty of historical significance (check out that link, it is an awesome tour).
The link is for Airport data and addiontal information.
Other Southern California Airports:
BIG BEAR CITY AIRPORT
JOHN WAYNE INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT, Orange County
ONTARIO INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT
LOS ANGELES INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT (LAX)
BURBANK AIRPORT (Bob Hope Airport)

SHAKE ROOFS TO BE REPLACED IN LAKE ARROWHEAD BY 2014

Image via WikipediaThis is a topic that people don't want to think about, but not talking or thinking about it, doesn't make it disappear. The topic is FIRE.
By the year 2014, old, wood shake roofs MUST be replaced. Gone. History. As everyone in the nation knows, Lake Arrowhead and all of the San Bernardino Mountains have had their share of fires; the last being OCTOBER 2007, The Grass Fire. Though that fire, or prior fires during the last decade, may not have been caused by shake roofs, old shake-roofs are like matchsticks waiting to ignite. When most of our charming mountain cabins (homes) were constructed way-back-when, these shakes roofs fit the "mountain style." However, there's no style worth risking your house being in harms way during a blazing, Southern California fire.
On September 23, 2008, The SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS' meeting addressed the shake roof issue. They proposed that by the 2014, home owners within the FIRE OVERLAY SAFETY AREA must have their old, shake roofs replaced by roofs with a minimum Class A fire rating roof. Sellers of homes with shake roofs must have this done during escrow and before closing.
This ORDINANCE WILL become effective by January 2009. If you'd like to attend future meetings regarding this issue or others, CLICK HERE for dates and times.

LAKE ARROWHEAD VILLAGE... Lakeside shopping and dining--in The San Bernardino Mts.

LAKE ARROWHEAD VILLAGE something for everyone. Rides for the kiddies, ducks to feed, eateries that cater to every single taste-bud: Mexican, American, from Waffles to Sushi, and more. Much more. There's shopping galore or benches to sit on...relax, kick back and watch people stroll by (that's my favorite thing to do). Supposedly (and I haven't actually counted) there are 50 plus shops, restaurants and attractions at The Village. You can even get your hair done. AND all of this is on the lower level of The Village.

When I first moved here, one day while shopping at LAKE ARROWHEAD's VILLAGE, I saw a very young Michelle Quan dancing around the sidewalks, pretending to be ice skating...I had no idea at the time, who this tiny person was or what she was about to become.

Almost every weekend during the year--even in the winter--there is some special event taking place at The Village. For instance, in summer months, we have SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA'S LARGEST FREE SUMMER CONCERTS. Also, every Friday, there is a FARMER'S MARKET. One of the most enjoyable events for me this summer was the ANTIQUE CARS AND WOODEN BOAT SHOW. That was too much fun! Then as fall nears, we have the OCTOBER FEST, and the list goes on and on.

But back to shopping.... Stores at The Village range from Tattle-Tails, a cutsie store that carries "special" items for children, including clothing and toys (I bought my new grandson his "favorite" stuffed horsie there) to Outlet stores: shoes, purses, clothing, etc. You need it, there's a shop with it.

To get a feel, and loads of information, about Lake Arrowhead, take a ride on THE QUEEN. The captain at the helm will take you around the lake all the while explaining the history, the depth, pointing out celebrities (older, now moved) homes, just to name a few. Kids and adults alike love taking this approx. hour voyage.

OCTOBER FEST begins in September and runs through October. Every weekend, all weekend, this event starts at noon. Come enjoy the music and yummy German food provided by Papagayos (my FAV Mexican eatery!).

So... take a little tour of THE VILLAGE, in LAKE ARROWHEAD, and see for yourself why you need to come on down!

Things to do while visiting The San Bernardino Mountains

• ICE CASTLE INTERNATIONAL TRAINING CENTER: At an elevation of 5,400 feet, in the beautiful San Bernardino Mountains, we have the Ice Castle International Training Center. Michelle Kwan trained right here! I remember when I first moved to Lake Arrowhead in 1991, seeing Michelle and her family at Lake Arrowhead Village--lake side. Michelle was actually practicing her skating moves. In tennies... I had no idea at that moment who she was or what she would become! The training center is now open for public skating (certain times & days)...
  cont... But before Lake Arrowhead had the "training" center, there was the Ice Castle; a public ice-skating rink in Blue Jay, California, built back in 1934 (photo from Rim of the World Historical Society). The Ice Castle was an opened-air rink for decades, surrounded by towering pines and cedars. At some point, however, a roof was added. Then, in 2001, heavy snowfall caused the roof to cave-in. The owner decided not to rebuild. Today, WINDERMERE Fine Properties has their office here (photo above). A great setting to work in, isn't it?
• LAKE ARROWHEAD VILLAGE: There is always something to do or see at Lake Arrowhead Village. You can shop til you drop, walk til you drop and eat til you can't eay anymore. The Village has restaurants galore for all tastes; Mexican, Sushi, Waffles, seafood, smoothies or candyshops. But if you want to find out all about Lake Arrowhead and its history, take a ride on The Arrowhead Queen. A ride on this tour boat will give you a great lesson about the area, now and then. View homes of past celebrities (not so much today's celebrities, for privacy reasons), plus there are places on the lake that you can only see from a boat. FUN trip!
  For all events going on this summer, including Southern California's Largest, FREE Summer Concerts, check out the Lake Arrowhead Village link above.
• CAMPING, HIKING, FISHING, PICNICING!..oh my. San Bernardino Ranger Station/Lake Arrowhead is where to begin if you want to "get back to nature." At the ranger station you can buy your ADVENTURE PASS (you must have one), get maps of trails and campgrounds. You'll learn how to have a safe, mountain experience. You may WANT to reserve your camping spot SOON, especially in the summer!! I was driving thru "Dogwood Campground" near Blue Jay few days ago, andI noticed RESERVED tags on ALMOST all sites for this weekend. (call 909-382-2782).
• RIM OF THE WORLD SCENIC HIGHWAY... Is an eighty-seven-mile-long, drive that takes you from San Bernardino all through the forested San Bernardino Mountains. You'll wind along Rim of The World's Highways' 18 and 138, and through quaint mountain towns like Big Bear Lake, Running Springs, Sky Forest, Rim Forest, to name a few. You can access Lake Arrowhead by turning off Highway 18 and onto Highway 173. Rim of The World Highway, a National Scenic Byway, goes from an elevation of 1,000 feet at San Bernardino to over 8,000 feet. Makes for a great Sunday afternoon drive!
• TAVERN BAY BEACH CLUB: Beginning in July, every Thursday evening at Lake Arrowhead's Tavern Bay Beach Club, across from UCLA Conference Center, we have the Arrowhead Arts Music Festival. Concert dates are from July 10, thru August 7, 2008. It's easy to relax, have fun and enjoy Lake Arrowhead's cool evenings under clear, blue skies, as you listen to bands like the Hotel California (tribute to the Eagles) and the Fab Four, a tribute to the Beatles. For a list of all bands, dates, costs and times see Arrowhead Arts Association. Check out this TAVERN BAY BEACH CLUB map to for directions.
  'COME UP FOR AIR..." You won't be sorry.

Mountain Garage Sale Weekend--May 24, 25, 26 2008

MOUNTAIN GARAGE SALE WEEKEND--Memorial Weekend; May 24, 25, 26, 2008
Twice a year, Lake Arrowhead and the surrounding mountain areas, have "Garage Sale Weekend." We have one Memorial Weekend and Labor Day Weekend. This gives our full-time and part-time mountain residents a chance to clean out, clear out, de-clutter and make a few bucks. Since 50% of our home owners are "weekenders," this is PERFECT for them IF they are selling their cabin/home. Instead of packing up unwanted pieces of furniture and other household items, they can help someone else who has just pruschased a place and is looking to furnish it without buying a bunch of new stuff. DID I mention RECYCLING? Garage Sales really are the BEST way to recycle.
Since I've had my fair share of Garage Sales over the years, I thought I'd share a few of my tips.

1. ADVERTISE--in your local newspaper, YouTube, Craigslist


2. SIGNS directing people to your sale. Put on your creative hat : whatever you use (cardborad, etc)Write BIG, BOLD and CLEAR. Include: date, time and address. Use directional arrows >>>>. (Make sure it is okay to put up signs in your area)


3. CLEAN/WASH/WIPE DOWN items for sale. They'll look better and sell faster.


4. PRICE ITEMS THE NIGHT BEFORE; use stick-on labels, A bright COLOR is good.


5. SET UP ITEMS in some orderly fashion: Shoes in one spot, dishes is another, clothing in another, etc.


6. WAIST HIGH tables--Make it easy for YOUR customers to check out the goodies. Bending and crawling around on the ground, just isn't that much fun. Clothing should be on hangers and hanging at eye-level.


7. GO TO THE BANK and get $100 worth of change: ones, fives, tens and coins.


8. SET UP A TABLE where customers can come and pay for items. KEEP jewerly here and other small valuables.


9. WEAR a fanny pack; This can be your CASH REGISTER


10. THINK LIKE A STORE OWNER.


11. Most important...HAVE FUN!!!!
