The City of Lauderhill is set to host a series of free, family-friendly events over the next two weekends, offering residents opportunities to focus on wellness, unity, and community engagement.
On Saturday, September 13, Mayor Denise D. Grant, in partnership with Feeding South Florida and ICNA Relief, will lead the Mayor’s Day of Action from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Lauderhill City Hall, 5581 W. Oakland Park Blvd. The event, held in recognition of Hunger Action Month, will feature a free food distribution, access to health and wellness services, stress management workshops, and community resources. Both breakfast and lunch will be provided.
The day will begin earlier with a Peace Garden gathering hosted by Commissioner Melissa P. Dunn at Windermere Tree Gardens, 1818 NW 54 Terrace, from 8 a.m. to 11 a.m. The community gathering is open to residents of all ages and will provide a chance to relax in nature, enjoy free food, and connect with neighbors. Organizers say the event is designed to promote harmony, mindfulness, and togetherness.
“These two events offer a full day of enrichment this Saturday. Beginning with peace and reflection in the garden, then moving into action and empowerment at City Hall, Lauderhill is proud to provide opportunities that nurture both body and soul,” city officials said in a statement.
The following weekend, Vice Mayor S. “Ray” Martin will host a Community Food Distribution Drive Thru on Saturday, September 20, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at John Mullin Park, 2000 NW 55 Ave.
