30 volunteers picked up 6 yards (a dumpster) worth of litter from the Mount Rose Meadows to central Incline and Memorial Point. Our most common items found were sled pieces and beer cans. Our most unusual item was a set of crutches found in the bushes at Mt. Rose Meadows. Thankfully volunteers reported that all sites were generally clean and that they had to search to find litter. We hope to see you at our next Tahoe Blue Crew Clean Up.

The Tahoe Regional Planning Agency has awarded funding to seven critical transportation projects across the Tahoe Region that will reduce congestion, expand regional trails, provide free transit, support sustainable recreation and tourism, assist with Caldor Fire recovery work, improve lake clarity, and create climate resiliency, the agency announced Monday.

FLU VACCINES AVAILABLE
The North Lake Tahoe Fire Protection District (NLTFPD) will be offering flu vaccinations to individuals over the age of 8 beginning September 28, 2021, for as long as supplies last. Vaccines administered by NLTFPD will be offered at the Fire District’s main station located at 875 Tanager Street. Walk-ins are welcome. We ask that visitors please wear a face covering to receive a flu vaccination. Vaccines will not be available at the Crystal Bay or Mount Rose Stations. Each vaccine is $40.00, payable by cash, check or credit card. Please note, we do not take insurance. If you are a Medicare patient, consider visiting your primary healthcare provider, Incline Village Community Hospital, Village Pharmacy or Raley’s pharmacy as those locations accept insurance.
For your convenience, Fire District personnel are available to visit homes or businesses by appointment. There is no additional charge for this service; however, the $40.00 vaccine fee still applies. To make an appointment, please call 775-831-0351, ext. 0. Please note that the vaccines are only for individuals 8 years of age and older; we recommend younger children be taken to their pediatrician.

"Went here for the very 1st time last night. The staff were very friendly, and the people at the bar were amazing too! It was so enjoyable to sit and chat while waiting for the food. We ordered the specialties listed on their website, ahi salad- hands down fabulous! The ahi was perfectly cooked, the seaweed was refreshing and the Wasabi dressing puts the cherry right on top! We also ordered their South shore burger with tater tots. the burger was cooked to perfection and their tots are delicious with their ranch!
My daughter ordered the Tahoe Beef Dipper with Tater Tots and she loved it, we threw some cheese on it and made it even tastier, as if that were possible!

I am pleased to report that the Board of County Commissioners unanimously approved a lease extension for the Incline Village courts to remain in their location, 865 Tahoe Blvd. Suite 301(September 21, 2021).

If there are any proposed changes to the Incline Village Crystal Bay Township Justice Court in the future I will ensure that the Incline Village / Crystal Bay residents will have opportunities to comment and provide input.

Please let me know if you have any additional questions, thanks!

Dress your groovy best, throw on your love beads, and join Tahoe Family Solutions, the Incline Village-based non-profit Family Resource Center, for a “Groovy Night for Mental Health” at their annual Shabby Chic fundraiser. This fun and festive event is being postponed to September 28th at 5:oo pm, a change from the original date of August 31st. Shabby Chic promises to be a colorful medley of 60s and 70s art, music, and regalia. Set in the beautiful outdoor setting of Aspen Grove, the evening will include live music by the local favorite, Jacked Up, dinner, drinks, themed tables, specialty cocktails, and a fabulous art and wine silent auction. All proceeds from Shabby Chic benefit Tahoe Family Solutions free and sliding fee mental health services. “Shabby Chic truly is the signature event of Tahoe Family Solutions,” says Amy Guinan, development director of TFS. “Not only is it a really fun and whimsical opportunity for the community to come together for a great night together, it also provides critical funding for TFS Mental Health Services. The wonderful support we receive at Shabby Chic allows TFS to continually keep mental health services accessible and available to all community members and allows us to keep fees low or completely free of charge. It is our goal to remove all obstacles for community members to access the mental health support they need.” Since its inception in 2013, Shabby Chic has raised nearly $700,000 for our community mental health services that include children’s therapy, play therapy, adult and family counseling, psychiatry services, and medication management. Organizers of Shabby Chic 2021 are hoping to raise $150,000 for TFS mental health services to engage an additional Marriage and Family Therapist, initiate group therapy sessions, and expand community collaborations – particularly in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and the mental and emotional toll it has taken on the community. Tickets are selling fast for Shabby Chic and can be purchased at www.tahoefamily.org. Guests are encouraged to wear their 60s and 70s best and join TFS for a great night of live music, food, drinks, dancing – and mental health support.

Peace, love, rock and roll
