Heavenly Mountain Resort will be a flurry of activity during Labor Day weekend, as the resort hosts the 27th Annual Heavenly Sports Tent Sale, the Heavenly Mountain Run, and the Kiwanis Community Fair at the California Main Lodge.
“The ski and ride season is right around the corner, and Labor Day weekend is the perfect opportunity to take inventory of what gear and equipment you need and take advantage of the massive savings offered at the Tent Sale,” said Pete Sonntag, Heavenly general manager. “Combined with the mountain run and the fair, it’s an action- and value-packed weekend of fun for the whole family.”
The annual tent sale offers skiers and riders overstock of ski and snowboard gear, apparel and accessories with incredible deals for the whole family from top brands like Salomon, Atomic, Burton, Oakley, Lange, Volkl, Patagonia, The North Face and more. Those who purchase an Epic, Tahoe Value or Tahoe Local season pass at the tent sale will receive a $25 voucher to be used with any purchase of $250 or more. The voucher is only valid the day the pass is purchased and may not be combined with any other offer.
The hours for the tent sale are Saturday, August 31, 9:00 a.m.-6:00 p.m.; Sunday, September 1, 10:00 a.m.-5:00 p.m.; and Monday, September 2, 10:00 a.m.-2:00 p.m.
Runners will have a chance to reach new heights by participating in the second annual Heavenly Mountain Run, presented by Salomon and produced by Big Blue Adventure, on Sunday, September 1, at 10:00 a.m., with check-in from 8:00-9:45 a.m. Part of the Tahoe Trail Running Series, the 5.8-mile Heavenly Mountain Run begins at the California Base Lodge and ascends from 6,565 feet to 9,150 feet to finish at Tamarack Lodge at the top of the Gondola.

Heavenly’s lower parking lot at the California Main Lodge will also be the site of the inaugural Kiwanis Community Fair from Friday, August 30-Sunday, September 1. Free to guests, activities will include carnival rides, craft fair booths, cooking contest, jam contest, floral displays and more. The event is hosted by Kiwanis, Optimist, Boys & Girls Club, Choices for Children, Live Violence Free and Tahoe Turning Point to benefit local nonprofits that provide services to families and children in South Lake Tahoe.
Collection boxes will also be located at the Tent Sale and the Carnival entrance for guests to donate gently used books for children ages 7-18. Benefiting the Boys & Girls Club of Lake Tahoe and Gardnerville, Heavenly’s Book Drive will continue until September 15, with drop-off locations at the Heavenly California Lodge, Gondola, Heavenly Sports at the Village, Seattle’s Best, Accommodation Station and the South Lake Tahoe Library.
