This Week's Official CLPOA News
What a 4th of July celebration!
When it comes to the 4th of July, there’s no place like home. Many proclaimed Monday’s fireworks “the best ever,” and Canyon Lake lived up to its reputation as a party town, where not even a summer thunderstorm of epic proportions could dampen the fun. According to Canyon Lake weatherman Pat Elliano, the Monday afternoon deluge dropped .79 inches of rain in about 20 minutes.
