Snapshot Day to monitor Lake Tahoe area water

Approximately a hundred community members will collect water quality samples from dozens of South Shore tributaries on May 20 as part of Snapshot Day, an annual citizen science monitoring event now in its 17th year.

Community members will gather at Lake Tahoe Community College at 9am to receive training before dispersing to assigned monitoring sites at South Tahoe locations at the lake, rivers and streams. Breakfast will be provided by Grass Roots and Starbucks, and a free lunch will be provided to all volunteers.

No prior experience is needed.
