Day On The Lake organizers recognized by County with commendation

The Santa Clara County Board of Supervisors officially recognized the Day on the Lake event with a commendation at its Mon., Aug. 13th meeting which was attended by several dozen individuals involved with the organizing of the successful June 2nd water-based activities event held at Vasona Park and Lake in Los Gatos.
