Many people living in areas affected by the drought are feeling guilty about participating in the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge, so organizers in South Lake Tahoe have given it a new twist.

On Sunday, August 31 at Lakeview Commons, there will be a community wide bucket challenge to raise money for both ALS and local charities. They are asking people to bring their own 5 gallon bucket and $10. At 3 p.m. participants will stand in the water at Lakeview Commons and fill their buckets up with water and have some fun.

250 senior team members of the resort "jumped in" on the challenge and Vail Resorts gave $100 for each of them to ALS.

Vail operates Heavenly Valley, Kirkwood and Northstar in Lake Tahoe.
