Inaugural Lake Tahoe Color Themed 5k Run a "Blast"

Bursts of color surrounded the over 100 runners as they participated in the inaugural Tahoe Youth and Family Service's Color Blast Run on Saturday, September 14. The 5k course meandered through the Lake Tahoe Community College parking lot, streets and bike paths.

Once the runners came across the finish line there was a celebration of dancing and lots more color being tossed.

Lake Tahoe Wildlife Care Update: Bobcats, 'Chips' plus a Golden Eagle release on Sunday

As ‘some’ of you may be aware, Lake Tahoe Wildlife Care now has a total of FIVE (5) bobcats in house. We have had a total of six this year, which is the most we have EVER had, but the one we got in about a month ago, was just with us for about 3 days, after being hit by a car in the Woodfords, Calif., area. We got ‘her’ back so she could - hopefully – take care of her babies.

For 30 years, the Christmas Cheer food bank has helped families celebrate Christmas with a traditional dinner of turkey and all the trimmings.
