About Lake Mary Life
Positive Community News since 2003.
Lake Mary Life has been sharing Positive Community News since 2003. Six times a year, we celebrate the people, schools, teams, nonprofits and businesses that make Lake Mary, Sanford and parts of Longwood such a wonderful place to call home.
Every issue is mailed free to more than 35,500 households and read online by thousands more. Lake Mary Life is published by Lake Mary Life Media, which also publishes Oviedo-Winter Springs Life, Longwood Life and J Life, together reaching more than 81,000 households across Central Florida.
