Snippets about Lake Tahoe
• Heavenly Mountain Resort is offering a summer pass to ride the gondola for $52.
• Tahoe Center for Orthopedics and Barton Health are offering free student sports physicals to South Tahoe and Whittell high school, and Pop Warner athletes playing fall, winter and spring sports. The event will take place on June 8 from 4-6pm at Barton Family Medicine. For more information, call (530) 543.5660.
• South Tahoe Public Utility District board members have a special meeting May 24 at 10am at the district office to discuss and take action on the possibility of raising water rates effective July 1.
• Tom Davis, board member of Christmas Cheer, says the shelves are bare. The nonprofit is providing food to about 1,000 families a month, whereas a couple years ago it was closer to 200 or 300 a month. To donate, call (530) 542.4934.
• In June, Delta Air Lines’ Sky magazine will publish a 30-page feature on Nevada, including information and articles on the state’s business climate, the healthcare industry, higher education, lifestyle and entertainment.
I think the Summer gondola pass is a good idea, with the price of 1 trip, you might as well pay a little more, and keep your options open, and the thing will be spinning regardless if it’s full or empty.
