The League to Save Lake Tahoe will host its annual Keep Tahoe Red, White & Blue Beach Cleanups at five locations throughout Lake Tahoe on July 5.

Volunteers of all ages and abilities are invited to join the effort from Tahoe City to Nevada Beach and South Shore.

Last year, the League’s July 5 beach cleanup volunteers removed 370 pounds of trash and 60 pounds of recyclables. The most common items were cigarette butts and beer bottles.

The League will provide reusable bags and buckets. Volunteers are invited to bring reusable water bottles and gloves.

The League is partnering this year with the U.S. Forest Service, Tahoe City Public Utility District, and South Lake Tahoe. Businesses sponsoring beach locations are: Ridge Resort, Lake of the Sky Outfitters, North Face, Grass Roots Natural Foods, SUP Tahoe, and Willard’s Sport Shop.

Locations: Commons Beach, Tahoe City; Taylor Creek, Kiva and Tallac Historic Site, South Shore; Regan Beach, El Dorado Beach and Timber Cove, South Lake Tahoe; Nevada Beach, Zephyr Shoals, East Shore.
