SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. – The Tahoe Chamber is proud to reflect on a successful summer season and share a robust lineup of fall events designed to connect, celebrate, and strengthen the South Shore community. From culinary festivals and leadership luncheons to networking mixers, the Chamber continues its mission to foster economic vitality and meaningful connections throughout the region.

A Delicious Thank You: Sample the Sierra 2025

On Saturday, September 6, more than 1,300 attendees gathered under the pines at Bijou Community Park for the 2025 Sample the Sierra festival. With 65% of attendees visiting from out of the area and 35% residents, the festival once again highlighted its dual purpose: showcasing local talent and driving tourism-related revenue to South Lake Tahoe.

The Tahoe Chamber extends its sincere thanks to this year’s sponsors: Tourism Improvement District, Camelot Party Rentals, Sierra Sotheby’s, Tahoe Cruises, Lake Tahoe Visitors Authority, Nomadix, and Folsom Times — as well as the exceptional food and beverage vendors, participating artisans, and dedicated volunteers. Your contributions helped celebrate the region’s creativity, hospitality, and flavor in a truly memorable way.

Cheers to a Successful Season on the South Tahoe Brewery Trail

The South Tahoe Brewery Trail & Passport enjoyed a strong summer, thanks in part to the seasonal shuttle provided by Camp Richardson. While the shuttle has concluded for the season, the passport program continues through the end of the year. Beer lovers are encouraged to keep collecting stamps at participating breweries to redeem a custom South Tahoe Brewery Trail pint glass. More info: tahoechamber.org/south-tahoe-beer-trail
