Las Olas Association Elects New Board &
Expands Boundaries The Las Olas Association recently held their annual meeting and elected a new slate of officers, with many of the 2003 officers returning. In addition to the elections, President Chris Gaus announced that the Las Olas Association has expanded their boundaries, running from Andrews Avenue on the west to S.E. 16th Avenue on the east. "For the last few years, there has been an interest in changing the By-Laws to include our neighbors to the east and the west of our traditional boundaries, which were from U.S. 1 to the Himmarshee Canal," Chris told members of the Association. "It’s obvious that the renaissance of Las Olas has led to dynamic growth in new buildings and many new restaurants and retailers. We are keeping up with the times." Chris returns to the board as the president, Andrew Hillier as vice-president, Sharon Schwartz serving as secretary and Mark Whitney as treasurer. Other board members include Katie Adler, Colleen Sotire, Cynthia Kounaris, Howard Alan, Ben Liss, Patrick Manzella and Lucy Sterling. For more than 30 years, the Las Olas Association has been the driving force responsible for organizing the various special events that take place on the boulevard. Two popular events will be returning: The Las Olas Wine & Food Festival slated for Thursday, March 18th and Clueless on Las Olas on Thursday, April 22nd. Chris also noted that Tangled Spider has been transforming the Las Olas web site and these changes should help promote the various businesses on the Boulevard. "Tangled Spider Design Group has also designed a new site we invite you to visit at www.lasolasassociation.com."
