Our print magazine gives your business a lasting presence, while our digital channels help readers find, contact, and remember you throughout the month.
Together, these platforms help your business stay visible, relevant, and connected with the Lakeside community.
Lakeside’s new people’s choir is firing up for a memory-making debut this December. Kids from local charity homes join Freedom Chorale adults to make it happen this upcoming Christmas season. The concert, “One Starry Night,” will light up your heart in an unforgettable way.
After rehearsing the two choirs separately, director Cindy Paul brought the adults and kids together in September. It’s not too late to join!
The 2026 Ajijic Balloon Regatta brought together families, participating teams, residents, and visitors at Campo Cruz Azul to enjoy one of the community’s most colorful traditions.
Throughout the event, people watched handmade paper balloons of different sizes, shapes, and designs being prepared and launched using hot air.
More than a visual spectacle, the Balloon Regatta represents creativity, teamwork, and community spirit. Each launch reflects many hours of preparation and continues a tradition that has been part of Ajijic for decades, making it a distinctive September celebration and an important part of the cultural identity of the Lake Chapala area.
