Don't miss Billy Strings 2023 Fall Tour show at Tahoe Blue Events Center this Sunday, October 8th! Billy Strings Fall Tour features his latest release "Me/And/Dad."
The product of a longtime dream, the record features new versions of fourteen bluegrass and country classics that the two have been playing together since Strings was a young child. Released to overwhelming acclaim, NPR Music praises, “exuberant interplay…a match made tender by the familiar harmonies of these two lifelong picking partners,” while The Wall Street Journal declares, “Me/And/Dad works beautifully…the guitars from the principals along with mandolin, banjo, fiddle and bass are expertly played with joy and verve” and Billboard proclaims, “Top-notch, wooly bluegrass picking wraps around distinct, family harmonies throughout.” In celebration of the release, Strings and Barber were featured on NPR’s “All Things Considered” speaking with host Ailsa Chang, while Strings was also featured on “CBS Sunday Morning” speaking with correspondent Conor Knighton.

Headwaters Science Institute is currently accepting applications for our 2023 Winter Research Experience! This program is held every semester and guides high school students in developing a research question. They will design and execute an experiment, analyze data, and publish their manuscript in the Headwaters Student Journal. In addition to learning research skills that will serve students well in their careers, the publication of a manuscript and a recorded virtual presentation boost students’ college applications and enhance science communication skills. Students will have real-world experience, contacts in the scientific community, and a network of peers to prepare them for their college applications, research assistantships, and scholarship opportunities.

Connecting with locals in the Truckee Tahoe area would be a great way to engage with my own community. Students from across the area have thrived in our programming in the past and I would be excited to have more students participate in the future. I would love to have the opportunity to work with your students!

The program runs for 12 weeks, from January 15th - April 19th, and can be completed remotely from anywhere with internet access. High school students receive professional one-on-one scientific mentorship and skills in all aspects of research. This program costs $1,500 for each student. We hope to offer an affordable, accessible program to students from all backgrounds. At Headwaters, we encourage students from all socio-economic, ethnic, and cultural backgrounds to participate, no matter their scientific experience or expertise. Scholarships to be available to students who want to participate, but cannot afford the $1,500. The deadline to apply for a scholarship is December 1st.

I can't wait to have your students in class this January!

"As a young child, I wanted to be a City Garbage Truck worker because the workers were always friendly and nice to me…interesting how the behaviors and attitudes of people in public service unknowingly can have such an influence.” From Rob's responses, one can see Rob's passion for public lands and compassion for the public to make lifetime memories in those public spaces shine through. It's exciting to know our dedications are aligned -- what great work we'll accomplish together in the future! Welcome, new District Superintendent Rob Griffith!
