SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. – If the American Legion can get 25 volunteers for a two-hour cleanup on Tuesday, November 10, Tito’s Vodka will donate $1,500 to the local post, #795. The Volunteer Clean Up Day will be from 10 a.m. – 12 p.m. It is sponsored by ‘Keep California Beautiful’ (KCB) and co-sponsored by Tito’s Vodka. KCB called Post 795 to see if they would be interested in having them ‘help’ clean up the area around the American Legion.
Since the Post is always looking for volunteers to help with clean-up, and donations are always more than welcome, Commander Tom Millham says, “How could we say no?”
They are looking for anyone to come and help with the effort. South Tahoe Refuse is donating a 25-yard dumpster, and they are expecting about 10 – 12 Legion members along with some members of the California. Conversation Corps (CCC), but more will be needed to reach that 25 number.
“The Post has had our troubles recently in raising funds to keep our doors open, so all help will be greatly appreciated, even if it is just picking up pine cones, of which there are a lot,” said Millham.
Bring gloves, rakes, shovels and brooms.
“Thanking our South Lake Tahoe community in advance,” added Millham.
