Freezing temperatures and snow are common for Lake Tahoe, but for those people not used to the elements they can cause problems including frostbite or even death.

Not wanting anyone to suffer and booth at Snow Globe is giving out gloves and scarves to anyone that needs protection from the weather. Nick and Kadi Alfield had what they thought to be plenty of outer gear to give away at their booth, Lighthouse, inside SnowGlobe. But that turned out to be not the case as their whole supply was given away on the opening night of the three day concert.

The year was 1914. Charlie Chaplin appears in his first movie. Ford Motor Company announces an 8 hour work day and a wage for employees of $5/day. Woodrow Wilson is President and Babe Ruth makes his major league debut. November 12th of that year was when Jean Dahlinger of South Lake Tahoe was born.

Today, 100 years later, Jean celebrated her 100th birthday at the Barton Mountain Cafe with family, friends and community members. Known as "The Dancing Machine," Jean was serenaded by the South Tahoe High Jazz Band as they played "Happy Birthday" and "America the Beautiful."

South Tahoe High Junior Mykala Muskovitz is spending Sunday participating in Tour de Tahoe, the annual bike ride around Lake Tahoe. The 16 year old doesn't just ride, which most of us would find as a big enough accomplishment, she raises money while doing so.

For the third year, Mykala is riding to raise money for a local charity.

In 2011 as an 8th grader, she made the 72 mile ride in 6 hours and raised over $2,000 for Boys and Girls Club and for winter hats and gloves for children at Live Violence Free.

How can you live a longer, healthier life? The answer is complicated and simple. “Experts” claim every conceivable option: cleanses, hormones, pills, exercises, diets, the list goes on. The options are dizzying, even to healthcare professionals.

Few authors are better known than Theodor Seuss Geisel, a.k.a. Dr. Seuss, yet, to this day, his Secret Art and his fantastical Hat Collection are virtually unknown to the general public. Throughout his lifetime, Ted Geisel created paintings and collected hats which he secreted away in a hidden closet at the Dr. Seuss Estate. This is the first time ever that Dr. Seuss’s hats have ever traveled outside his home.

The 2013-14 school year is off to a great start! We have had much excitement since August 19th with our first and hopefully, annual Round Hill Pines Beach Bash which was held on September 8th. Festivities included hot dogs and hamburgers, a raffle, and a silent auction. Families were able to get acquainted and re-acquainted and the kids were still enjoying the long summer sun. Thanks to our awesome Parent-Teacher Club, we are well on our way to funding many academic opportunities for enrichment and intervention as well as materials and resources for our teachers.

South Lake Tahoe teen Mykala Muskovitz completed Sunday's Tour de Tahoe's 72 mile course around Lake Tahoe in just 4.5 hours. While some riders were faster, Mykala's ride was filled with passion and compassion as she rode to raise money to sponsor under privileged dancers at Lake Tahoe's Shining Stars and to buy winter hats and gloves for the children at Live Violence Free.
