Rossmoor Graduation Parade!

What started in 2020 as a creative workaround to a pandemic-canceled graduation has become one of Rossmoor’s most beloved traditions — and on Saturday, May 31, the 6th Annual Rossmoor Graduation Parade made it clear: this event isn’t going anywhere.

More than 675 graduates, friends, and family packed into nearly 140 decorated vehicles for the five-mile journey through Rossmoor’s tree-lined streets. Lawn chairs, handmade signs, pom-poms, ezups, picnics, and plenty of cowbells greeted the Class of 2025 at every turn. The vibe? Part pep rally, part neighborhood block party — with a dose of cheers and car horns for good measure.

This year’s theme, “Ready to Launch,” was fitting for both the graduates and the parade itself, which has grown into a community-wide rite of passage. The parade included everything from classic convertibles and SUVs decked out in school colors, to a military LMTV carrying 18 cadets from Sunburst Youth Academy — a standout moment that brought cheers all along the route. Retiring teachers from the Los Alamitos Unified School District even made their final lap aboard a decorated boat.. 

Graduation Event Photos

If you have some graduation or parade shots you'd like included in the gallery on to share with the neighborhood, please do upload them here. These can be photos or videos from the parade, family graduation events or the formal graduation itself. The more the merrier! Thanks!

Shakespeare By The Sea Returns to Rush Park

Coming to Rush Park on June 28th and 29th, Shakespeare By The Sea presents Julius Caesar and As You Like It. Both the play begin at 7:00 p.m. and there is no admission charge to enjoy these performances. Family friendly and skillfully presented, these plays are amazing and are modeled after the live Shakespeare events in New York's Central Park. 

Grab a chair and maybe a picnic dinner and allow yourself to be transported to another time and place - though still applicable to today.

Shakespeare By The Sea is a professional acting Troupe that believes these plays should be available for everyone to enjoy. They do accept contributions to help offset the performance costs. You can find out more here on their website

Come on out to the Rossmoor Farmers Market from 4 to 7 on Thursday. You'll find all sorts of treasures in the way of food and crafts. Plus the always popular fresh produce. Don't miss out!

Griffin Gazette: 
From ‘Descendants’ dreaming to national teams: Amalia Berthon’s lacrosse journey 

Jaya Eapen, Audience Editor with the LAHS Griffin Gazette talks with Amalia Berthon about her "tourney" focus and her lacrosse journey.  Read the full article here.

As any Gen Z youth who grew up on Disney Channel movies knows, in the 2015 cinematic adventure film “Descendants,” many of the main characters bond over the fictional game “tourney,” modeled after lacrosse. While the movie’s plot focuses on the children of classic Disney villains, a young Amalia Berthon had eyes for only one thing: tourney. 

Longing to be like her beloved characters, Berthon, a junior at Los Alamitos High School,  set out to experience the next closest thing. She began her athletic career in sixth grade after experimenting with different sports to discover her true passion, but she eventually decided on lacrosse. 

“Before lacrosse, I played basketball and softball, but I just didn’t enjoy playing those sports that much,” Berthon said. 

Currently on the LAHS girls varsity lacrosse team, Berthon has immensely grown her lacrosse talents, leading her to come across a spot on the Orange County national lacrosse team. Berthon explained how she joined the team and her upcoming position. 

Berthon was spotlighted by her LAHS varsity team after making the OC national team. “For the OC national team, coaches nominate their players to try out,” Berthon said. “I will also be playing midfield.” 

The official USA Lacrosse National Tournament itself was hosted from May 24-25 at the University of Massachusetts, where high school girls from across the country competed..... Read the rest of the story here....
