Community Holiday Tree & Menorah lighting a success

Thank you South Lake Tahoe!

The Community Holiday Tree & Menorah lighting, hosted by the Lake Tahoe Visitors Authority last Friday, was a big success (despite the fact that more than half of the tree lights did not turn on). The event was attended by over 400 locals and visitors and was enjoyed by all.

The LTVA would like to thank Mayor Jerry Birdwell for his heartfelt welcome, and the following for their contribution and support: Sierra Pacific Power, Lake DJ/Derek Tarpey, Temple Bat Yam, Tahoe Schools Choir, Borges Sleigh Rides, Sierra-at-Tahoe, Aramark/Lake Tahoe Cruises, Riva Grill, Safeway Bijou & Round Hill, Raleys, Grocery Outlet, Lakeside Inn, MontBleu, Sierra Tahoe Wood Products, Leadership Lake Tahoe and the City of SLT Parks & Recreation Department.

Very special thanks to Santa Claus and all his elves and helpers. We look forward to seeing you on the first Friday of December next year for this annual community event.

Sue Barton, deputy director Lake Tahoe Visitors Authority
