What’s in a name? You decide. Both Lakeside Village and Bonnet Springs Park have new additions, and now they’re calling on Lakelanders to help choose the names.
At Lakeside Village, you can help name the two swans featured in Gillian Fazio’s new breezeway mural, “Swan & Citrus.” Submit family-friendly entries by the end of October, and if you’re chosen as the winner, you’ll receive a $300 gift card to the Lakeside Village shop or restaurant of your choice.
If you want to name a real-life animal, meet Bonnet Springs Park’s new baby tortoise. Five names are on the shortlist for this tiny guy: Shellington, Bonbon, Sprout, Bowser, and Mr. T. Drop your choice in the Facebook comments.
Editor Connor here, and I can’t help but throw out my picks. I would name the swans Ja-cob and Penny (after cob and pen, the names for male and female swans), and I think Sprout is fitting for a park’s unofficial mascot.
