South Lake Tahoe to light holiday tree, menorah
Lake Tahoe Visitors Authority winter tree lighting is Dec. 2 from 5-7pm at the South Lake Tahoe Senior Center (3050 Lake Tahoe Blvd.).
Instead of standing outside the cold like years past, people will be able to take refuge inside the senior center and Tahoe Art League Gallery.
Free sleigh rides will be offered by Borges Sleigh Rides.
Disc jockey Derek Tarpey will spin holiday tunes, while the South Lake Tahoe Children’s Choral Society provides live music.
Tours of the Lake Tahoe Historical Society Museum and 1930s Log Cabin will be available.
The community menorah will also be lighted.
Bring a camera to take photos with Santa inside the South Lake Tahoe Senior Citizens Center or in front of the Lake Tahoe Historical Society Museum’s Victorian Tree.
Food and toy donations will be collected for Christmas Cheer and Caps For Kids.
For more information, call (530) 541.5255 or email info@LTVA.org.
This holiday season will finally have a community tree lighting to look forward to! Thanks to Bob Dodds , our current Liberty energy president and GM , Carol Chaplain and Pat Ronan of the LTVA . No offense to previous efforts but now there should actually be lights that stay lit for much of the season ! I saw a crew stringing lights at the big tree on the corner where the factory outlets are as well.
Already several commercial buildings have installed white lights along their roof lines to stand out from the rest.
Now if only the other buildings that line 50 would have some fun and do something to welcome customers we might actually stand out as a attractive welcoming community along our main corridor!
This means of marketing is “101” and requires little investment and time. People might sense some community if everyone does a little more . Gaming numbers are down and so the big dogs downtown did little to participate last year and unlike years past made a huge statement that they just dont care ? Since the Y is being revived how about Less Schwab tires and DIY make the effort to thank Tahoe for supporting them? Anyone else feel the same?
