Outpouring of love by South Shore community for Camp Fire victims
Submitted by paula on Wed, 11/21/2018 - 11:47am
SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. - It takes a tragedy to bring people together, no matter their politics, their income or twitter handle.
Many in the South Lake Tahoe and Meyers community remember where they were at 2:15 p.m. on Sunday, June 24, 2007 and what happened in the days that followed. The Angora Fire quickly tore through neighborhoods, destroying 251 homes and burning 3,100 acres. While it seems small in comparison with the monster fires of 2017 and 2018, it took everything from so many local families.
The community came together to help their friends and neighbors.

Letter: Remember this as fear and bitterness attempt to drive us apart
Submitted by paula on Sat, 10/20/2018 - 8:48am
Dear South Shore Tahoe,
I attended a forum of City Council candidates this week. As I listened to the candidates, I realized, this is America the beautiful.
Each candidate spoke with integrity, well-founded opinions, intelligence, and (above all else) commitment to our city. Their views were all over the map, each represented different groups across town, defended their positions, advertised their experience. But ‒ most importantly ‒ they were there, giving themselves, in discussion and listening, for our community.
Let’s hold onto this America: E Pluribus Unum ‒ Of Many, One.

On Monday I boarded the South Shore Water Shuttle at Lakeside Marina for a round trip to all four of its regular stops, Timber Cove Marina, Camp Richardson Resort & Marina and Round Hill Pines Beach Resort & Marina, and then back to Lakeside.
