Fiesta Day Grand Marshal

We are delighted to announce Joe Kamashian as this year's Fiesta Day Grand Marshal! Joe is renowned for his volunteer experience in Canyon Lake clubs and committees, serving several years on the Green Committee, where he was Chairman for two terms, and the Facilities Planning Committee, as well as working closely with the Tuesday Work Group on multiple projects to beautify and maintain the golf course. Joe is a proud member of the Men's Golf Club, the Yacht Club, the Canyon Lake Association of Men (C.L.A.M.S.), the Pickleball Club, and the Canyon Lake Association of Past Presidents (CLAPPS), the latter of which has successfully raised over $100,000 for golf course improvements. This year marks the end of Joe's final term on the Canyon Lake POA Board of Directors. Please join us in congratulating Joe on his vital service to our beautiful community!

April Member of the Month

The Member of the Month for April is Maxine Whalen. Maxine has been an integral part of Canyon Lake since moving here in 1996. Maxine quickly joined several clubs, including the Women's Golf Club, for which she became president in 2006. In 2010 and again in 2016 — at 84 years old — she won the President's Cup and was also awarded the Women's Golf Club Above and Beyond Award in 2015. Maxine brought the Meals on Wheels program to Canyon Lake from 2010 to 2013 to provide meals to the senior citizens of our community, and in 2020, she founded the Friends of the Lighthouse group. Each month, this group meets at the Lighthouse Restaurant to increase the restaurant's patronage. Not only is she active in the community, but she is also an active person; she is still seen playing on the golf course 2 to 3 times a week. Her strong support for the community makes her an invaluable member of Canyon Lake.
