SLT should stage a “Film Festival” (ala Maui Film Festival, where a “Celestial” film venue is set up on the grass at one of the Wailea golf courses.). The Maui Film Festival is held in June. A Tahoe Film Festival could be held early July or when the chance of rain or thunderstorms is least. Film Festivals are usually augmented with food-fests, wine tastings, etc. I don’t know of any of these Film Festivals that have failed…. check them out!
