Coordinating service projects in South Tahoe
To the community,
I am compiling a list of service projects that South Lake Tahoe area nonprofits and other groups would like to see done this summer.
Is there a lot that needs weeding? A building that needs painting? Seniors in need of some assistance in their homes? Low-income families in need of their house painted or defensible space incorporated? A fence fixed? What do you need done?
Once this list is accumulated I’ll be contacting local clubs and the community in general to try and have a community-wide service day, called “Tahoe Cares.” Please call me your list(s) with location and contact person’s name and phone number. Please also mention if you have some supplies already to get the job done. Also, if you’d like to help organize this day, please let me know.
Thank you,
Paula Peterson, Tahoe Douglas Rotary and Tahoe Youth &Family Services BOD

Great job Paula! It’s about time our efforts are more coordinated. We’ll be able to get a lot more accomplished.
Paula- Bravo- Let’s coordiante this with the Lake Tahoe South Shore Chamber’s efforts and data base. It will be a good fit on our web site too.
The South Tahoe Chamber of Commerce (the one IN South Lake Tahoe)and the Ski Run District have already started an effort to this effect.The more the community does to help each other out – the better!
It’s too bad the Chamber IN South Lake Tahoe takes an opportunity jab someone’s good idea, but then again it proves how their standard attitude, taking jabs at others. It’s what’s wrong IN south lake tahoe, the constant complaining jabbing pointing out why one is better than the other, any Chamber no matter where you are should be focused on the whole community, doing what it takes to help businesses. Everyone’s success is all of our success. South Lake Tahoe reaches across California and Nevada statelines, both of which are IN south lake tahoe, you can see now why I joined the chamber that promotes cooperation and business development, not the one full of people who draw distinctions between who has been here how long and where exactly my business address is. we’re in this together, or so we should be.
