While not officially part of the IVCB Local Heroes Celebration, plan to participate in the 11th Annual Keep Tahoe Red, White and Blue Beach Clean Up on July 5. After Tahoe’s celebrated July 4th festivities, our beaches and surrounding areas can become covered with trash, endangering wildlife and the Lake’s clarity. Each year on July 5th, Tahoe residents and visitors turn out for the largest cleanup of the year to remove litter from Lake Tahoe’s shores. You can help Keep Tahoe Blue by volunteering at beach cleanup sites around the Lake!
