At 1st Lake Properties, we encourage all of our residents to support local businesses. Through our Resident Rewards program, businesses are given the opportunity to promote their brand by offering special discounts that are only available to our residents. An initiative through JEDCO and Jefferson Parish called #SPENDLOCALJP was created in wake of COVID-19. According to JEDCO, “the campaign is to remind residents that when they spend their money on a local business, they’re investing in brands they love while keeping friends, neighbors and family members employed.”
Now that Louisiana is in Phase Two of re-opening, you’re probably wondering which restaurants, stores and parks are finally open! See our list below and let us know if you have any spots to add!

Let’s talk about how you can keep from catching the quarantine crazies.
1. Garden: Make your own personal forest or herb garden. Even if you don’t have anywhere exterior to grow your green thumb, there are plenty of house plants you can add to your space. Check out our houseplant guide here.

2. Learn Something New: Maybe you can’t head to the library to grab a new book, but you can still access all of our local libraries’ resources through great apps like Hoopla, RBdigital, Libby, and more!
3. Sharpen Your Skills: Want to learn how to start your own podcast? Watch a Youtube video about it. Want to get an edge on your competition in the job market? Gain some in-demand skills via LinkedIn Learning!
4. Deep Clean: The easiest way to tackle this is to organize your cleaning schedule room by room. For more on that, visit our deep clean blog post!
5. Stay Connected: Catch up with a friend or family member. Give them a call or video chat with them. Have a fun virtual movie night by putting on your favorite film. You can even share the same snacks by planning to both pop some popcorn or candy! There are also some super fun apps out their like HouseParty that let you play virtual games while seeing your favorite people face-to-face.
