Lake Tahoe Summit 2015

A shuttle and bike valet will be available for the large crowd expected to attend the 19th annual Lake Tahoe Summit on Monday, August 24 at the Round Hill Pines Beach Resort in Zephyr Cove.

This year, U.S. Senator Dean Heller (R-Nevada) is hosting the free event.

The theme of this year’s Lake Tahoe Summit is “Connecting Lake Tahoe’s Environment and Economy through Innovation and Transportation.” The keynote speaker is Chris Bently, Chief Executive Officer of Bently Enterprises.

Since the Presidential Forum at Lake Tahoe in 1997, the Lake Tahoe Summit has become a yearly gathering of local, state, and federal leaders who are working to preserve and restore the Lake as one of our country’s most precious environmental treasures. The summit is free and open to the public and offers a unique opportunity to highlight the successes and challenges in restoring Lake Tahoe’s unique environment.

Held outdoors on the South Shore of Lake Tahoe, the 2015 Lake Tahoe Summit will also feature remarks from:

Nevada Governor Brian Sandoval
California Governor Jerry Brown
Nevada Lieutenant Governor Mark Hutchison
Congressman Mark Amodei (R-Nev.)
Congressman John Garamendi (D-Calif.)
