Normally held in October, organizers of Bubbles & Bowties decided to move the popular event for two reasons: Problems with their original venue and a desire to not do a fundraiser near any others in town.

How was your high-school prom experience? Do you look back at the photos and think "OMG. I can't even!"? Perhaps you went alone? Or perhaps that dude you went with...let's just say he should probably be in jail. Maybe the powder blue tux you wore wasn't quite your color. Whatever your prom experience was, bet you'd like a chance to do it again as an adult.

SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. - Imagine you're ten years old and have just been diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes. No other students in your school have this disease, nor do any of your friends or family members. Insulin, glucose, pumps, blood testing, counting carbs are new words you now need to grasp and understand.
Facing life with this chronic condition in which the pancreas produces little or no insulin is daunting, confusing, overwhelming.

Spotlight on You: Angela Zajic and Rah Hair Studio
Submitted by paula on Fri, 12/15/2017 - 1:47am
A South Lake Tahoe hair salon is gaining attention from around the country because of their specialized wedding hair services, and its all because of Rah Hair Salon's owner Angelia Zajic and her team of eight stylists.
Zajic, a South Lake Tahoe native and a graduate of Whittell High School, opened Rah in 2009 after working at New Wave and in the Aveda Salon at MontBleu. It was her experience with Aveda that led Angela to creating a spa-like atmosphere at the studio which is located at 2572 Lake Tahoe Blvd #4.

Get out that gaudy dress. Rent a tux. Get yourself a date (though not required). Schedule a baby-sitter. Group chat your besties. This is going to be a night you won't soon forget. Adult bonus: you don't have to hide your booze in 7-11 Big Gulps.
