Meeting to address concerns of Tahoe Ironman

A meeting on Aug. 6 will focus on community impacts of September’s Ironman Lake Tahoe.

The 5:30pm meeting will be at the North Tahoe Event Center in Kings Beach.

The sold-out triathlon is Sept. 22. More than 2,500 athletes will be competing.

Race director Keats McConigal, assistant director Todd Jackson and course director David Reid will be attending the meeting. The three will go over traffic concerns, race impacts, and the economic benefit the race will have on the area. Following the presentation there will be time for audience questions.

The course runs throughout most of North Lake Tahoe. It starts at Kings Beach State Recreation Area and cyclists will pedal through Truckee and over Brockway Summit before the event ends at Squaw Valley.
