Snippets about Lake Tahoe
• The Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges has fully accredited Lake Tahoe Community College. Next evaluation will be in six years.
• Here are the roadwork schedules for the week from Caltrans for Sierra and El Dorado-Tahoe.
• The spa at the Resort at Squaw Creek is No. 5 on Conde Nast Travelers’ readers’ poll of top spas in North America.
• Sens. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., and Harry Reid, D-Nev., in vain urged in this letter for the Sierra Club not to file a lawsuit challenging the Tahoe Regional Planning Agency’s Regional Plan.
• Assemblyman Harvey Munford, D-Las Vegas, has introduced a bill that would make it illegal for pedestrians to read, browse the Internet or enter data while crossing highways in the state. That would mean no texting while crossing Highway 50 between the Stateline casinos.
LTCC is such a wonderful and beautiful asset to our community! I wonder if they could ever get a partnership with UC Davis & offer extension classes in winemaking, high-tech & bio-tech, veterinary pre-med, and general pre-med classes? Maybe they could also establish a high-altitude sports training center?
Maybe I’m just dreaming…
