There will also be yard games, bubbles and other “kids” activities (that I may or may not also enjoy) and there are some other things as well. Feel free to bring your outdoor activity of choice as appropriate. (I brought my “big” camera last time.)** **Dog friendly, inclusive activity.** **I will attempt to arrive by 6 to pick a group spot (likely farther from the stage). I like the bubbles so so will probably be near the bubble station. 😁 Feel free to come and go as necessary. I will hopefully remember to bring both of my picnic blankets which I am happy to share. I recommend bringing your lawn chair if you have one!** **I usually park on the side by the kayaks, but it is more of a walk from there.** **This is the second of Live @ Lakeline 2026 concerts and this week is** **the band** [Capitol](https://thecapitoljam.com) **.**

Communication is everything in life You are only as successful as your ability to communicate. \- What if you could confidently talk to anyone? \- What if you had the ability to calmly control every conversation? \- What if you could close that sale\, ask for that date\, make new friends\, repair problematic relationships\, get that raise\, or effortlessly express any idea with confidence? You can! The secret to success relies on your ability or inability to effectively communicate. Attend a free seminar and gain a better ability to communicate.
