Lake Tahoe East Shore Cleanup on Saturday
Submitted by Editor on Thu, 08/16/2012 - 12:52pm
The League to Save Lake Tahoe is partnering with the U.S. Forest Service and the Washoe Tribe for a volunteer beach clean-up of Tahoe's East Shore beaches, including Skunk Harbor and Chimney Beach. Volunteers will be helping to clean-up these secluded and beautiful Lake Tahoe beaches. Keeping Tahoe clean and blue is a collaborative effort where local residents and visitors alike can make a difference.
The East Shore Beach Cleanup Day is on Saturday, August 18th from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Volunteers should report for orientation starting at 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. at the Secret Harbor main parking lot along NV SR 88 on the east shore of Lake Tahoe. The parking lot is about 2.3 miles south of Sand Harbor or 5 miles north of the intersection of U.S. 50 & NV SR 88. We encourage volunteers to cover the beaches from Chimney Beach to Skunk Harbor. Volunteers of all ages and abilities are welcome to attend the event. Bags and gloves will be provided.
If you would like more information on volunteering for this volunteer event please call 530-541-5388, or email events@keeptahoeblue.org. Thank you for your support toward keeping Tahoe blue and clean!
