Yolanda Martinez is the most recently selected member of the Lake Chapala Society (LCS) board of directors.
When Martinez returned to Mexico from Chicago 20 years ago, she built and opened Yoly’s, a full-service salon in Bugambilias Plaza. In the past two decades she has given generously to the community of her time and talents, serving on the boards of several organizations, including the Chamber of Commerce, the Cruz Roja and an organization of businesswomen.
Her goal at LCS is to help develop more programs and events for the Mexican community. As a move toward bringing more interaction between expats and Mexicans, Martinez will coordinate the Lake Chapala Society’s 60th anniversary party in November.
