Community invited to celebrate City of South Lake Tahoe's 50th

The City of South Lake Tahoe has been celebrating its 50th anniversary all year long with a parade, gala and different events to highlight the successes of the city's first five decades. The actual incorporation day was November 30, 1965 and the City will commemorate that with a free community open house in the Council Chambers at the South Lake Tahoe Airport on November 30, 2015 at 3 p.m.

Fifty years ago, community members throughout South Lake Tahoe came together and determined the best course of action for their future was self-governance. After many years of preparing, planning, neighborhood meetings and door-to-door conversations, on November 30, 1965 individual neighborhoods became one city: The City of South Lake Tahoe.
