AC company helps cool down athletes
Lakeside Heating and Cooling has donated new air-conditioning units to the LOLHS Touchdown Club, which is the booster club for the high school football program. The units are being used to cool the field house at Land O’ Lakes High School.
Besides benefiting the high school athletes, the gift also benefits athletes from Pine View Middle School, who use the field house, too.
“Lakeside is a true supporter of our community and we are very grateful,” said Krissie Marsh, in a note to The Laker/Lutz News. Marsh, the social media director for the booster club, also pointed out that the field house has been without air-conditioning since it was built.
Ron Ierna, owner of Lakeside Heating and Cooling, is a 1994 graduate of Land O’ Lakes High School.
