Windsor Beach Renovation

Posted: Friday, August 14 2009 at 05:49PM

The renovation for Windsor Beach has begun, thanks to the efforts of the Lake Havasu City Marine Association.  A $600,000 renovation is planned for Windsor Beach.  The renovations not only improve existing docks at Windsor Beach, but will also add three new ones.  The new docks will be placed at Windsor Beach 4, another at the personal watercraft ramp on the west and a third one west of the south ramp.

The new aluminum docks were delivered near the Triple Axle parking lot on August 3rd.  The Lake Havasu City Marine Association hopes to have them all in place by Labor Day.  The planned work schedule is posted at the beach entrance.  Other planned renovations include new sidewalks and asphalt repair at the north ramp.

The Lake Havasu City Marine Association began raising funds last year to replace the existing floating docks at Windsor Beach.  Due to their efforts, the federal funds (not part of the stimulus package), grants and private donations have made the planned renovation possible.  According to Ron Christofferson of the Arizona Game and Fish Department, "This is the first private and government partnership that I know of in the state to get docks installed like this."

The Lake Havasu City Marine Association is still looking for volunteers to help with the dock placement and other renovations.  If you are interested in helping out, call Les John at 928-854-2590.

Thank you to the Lake Havasu City Marine Association and to all that have contributed to keeping Windsor Beach beautiful.

Lake Havasu Unified School District Offers More in Education

Posted: Friday, August 07 2009 at 12:55PM

Lake Havasu Unified School District is offering parents and students more choices in education.
The reasons that parents would choose a non-traditional school setting are many and varied.  Lake Havasu Unified is offering parents an outstanding tuition-free alternative.  Choices in education are important to Lake Havasu parents.  Many are opting for homeschooling.  Now, Arizona is offering parents another great alternative: it is tuition-free IQ Academy.

IQ Academy is a fully accredited school for grades K-12 which brings education into a student's home via the internet.  The virtual classroom is structured and yet adaptable to each student's particular needs and schedules. Like regular school, tests are given and passing or failing classes is determined by taking them.  Students who consistently do well, gathering enough points through the semester, are going to be prepared for their tests.  This is why attendance is critical.  Students interact with other students who are not only in Lake Havasu and the state of Arizona, but with other virtual students and teachers across the nation.

Lake Havasu students enrolled in IQ Academy will receive their diploma from Lake Havasu High School upon graduation.

Parents interested in learning more can go to the IQ Academy website or attend an open house online or offline.  In addition, you can talk to a live person to answer questions or concerns you may have.
