Santa's elves visit the Children's Memorial Tree in South Lake Tahoe

The Elves did it again!! They visited the South Lake Tahoe Children's Memorial Tree in the park at Lake Tahoe Boulevard and Wildwood Avenue for the 11th straight year, leaving behind signs of Christmas with stockings and decorations.

There is a stocking at the tree for the over 250 children who are memorialized there.

The memorial was created 30 years ago when tragedy struck the local community when South Tahoe High students Rory Hrbacek, Sandy Haynes, and Casey Wells died in a single-vehicle accident on Pioneer Trail.
