Cedar Lake Heart & Soul
“DRAFT” Heart & Soul Statements
Recreational Opportunities
We value the uniqueness of living in a community like no other in our region. It feels like being on vacation because of the atmosphere created by the activities around the lake, the opportunities for contact with nature, and the chance to enjoy them with others.
FOCUS AREA:
Public Experiences
We enjoy creating lasting memories and cherished moments, and value the opportunity to play and celebrate at the variety of accessible, low or no cost experiences in our community such as Summerfest, farmer’s market, concerts, sports leagues, parades and museum events.
FOCUS AREA:
Our Shared History
We value preserving our town’s unique identity as a great source of Cedar Lake pride and the culture presented at our museum because our shared history unites us, strengthens connections across the entire community, and bridges neighborhoods, school districts, and the many parts of our town.
FOCUS AREA:
Community Connectedness
The people of Cedar Lake value the family-friendly connectedness of the community. Our citizens put down roots, make memories, volunteer together, and are committed to raising their families here for many generations.
FOCUS AREA:
Enthusiastic Organizations
We appreciate and support our schools, churches, nonprofits, and locally-owned businesses because of the quality, variety, and dedication they bring to the community.
FOCUS AREA:
Small Town Living
We take pride in living in a community with a small-town feel as we grow to welcome new families. We are peacefully set apart but still in close proximity to larger cities and amenities, with affordable housing and a safe environment that we call home.
