Volunteers at the Spooner Summit sled hill
To celebrate #EarthWeekTahoe, volunteers came out in force to clean up winter litter that had been buried under snow until the recent spring melt. Ninety-six volunteers removed more than 700 pounds of trash from Heavenly Village and the litter-plagued, unofficial sledding hill near Spooner Summit during events on April 22, 23, and 24.
While Earth Week is a fitting occasion to combat pollution in Tahoe, litter is a year-round problem that requires constant action to avoid harm to wildlife, the Lake’s delicate ecology, and the Basin’s scenic beauty.
“It might be Friday afternoon, but it doesn’t matter what day of the week it is. I’m out here taking care of the place I love most,” noted Geoff Miller, a cleanup volunteer and leader of one of the League to Save Lake Tahoe’s Tahoe Blue Crews. “I don’t mind devoting my time and energy to bringing this place back to how beautiful it is naturally.”
The 32nd annual Elegant Evening 2021 on-line Auction and Show was a huge success and that was due to the generosity of businesses and friends near and far. We are beyond thrilled that our Service Committee donations were met with such enthusiasm!
Soroptimist International of Tahoe Sierra especially thanks Tahoe Production House for their professionalism in developing our show and everyone who participated in this exciting and worthwhile event. Our gratitude goes to those who donated to enable our support of the many programs and organizations we assist. As always, all money raised is invested into schools, scholarships, projects, and youth both locally and globally. Please support the following businesses and friends who were patrons of our 2021 Elegant Evening:
