Besides having a scholarship established in his name, retiring Parkland College art Professor Don Lake received a special gift from some of his students.

It was a collection of 35 watercolor paintings, all done in the same size by them and organized in a box specially made for the "Don Box Project' by Lincoln Bookbindery in Urbana. The chief organizer of the project was Margaret De Cardy, a perennial student of Lake's and a retired K-12 art teacher.
