On Sat. June 23 Meyers will host a Summer Solstice Celebration from 2-6 pm at 3170 Highway 50. This family-centered event is designed to bring together the healing, artistic, and recreational cultures of the Lake Tahoe Basin in a community street fair. Activities will include a parade, live music, art cars, food, children’s recreation and booths featuring local artists and healers. The celebration is free and open to the public.

“Lake Tahoe has always been a destination for healing, and this is the vision for our summer solstice celebration,” says Dr. Joshua Welch, who with the support of the Meyers Business Group is heading up the inaugural event. The theme of the solstice celebration is “fire,” to commemorate the 5th anniversary of the Angora Fire and the community’s ability to unite. Costumes, bicycles, strollers and all non-motorized vehicles will be encouraged around this theme. Attendees are encouraged to come in costume and join the parade; those interested will meet at the stage at 4 p.m.

To become a sponsor of the event, contact Dr. Welch at (530) 577-5433 or go to www.meyerscommunity.com. Also, find Meyers Community at www.facebook.com/MeyersCommunity.
