Lake Elsinore City Council

A Message from Mayor Johnson

Its hard to believe that November has arrived already. November is a month dedicated to giving thanks, and there is so much to be thankful for.

This month, we come together to honor our veterans on November 11th for veterans day. These brave men and women have selflessly served our nation and we invite you to the Diamond Stadium on November 11, 2023 at 9:00 AM to pay tribute to our veterans and express our heartfelt appreciation for their contributions.

With Thanksgiving just around the corner, we are grateful for the opportunity to reflect on what makes us thankful. It's a time to cherish our community, come together with our loved ones, and celebrate Thanksgiving. This November, let's celebrate the spirit of thankfulness and togetherness that defines our community.

Sincerely,

Natasha Johnson, Mayor
