On Monday October 14th the Club held the 26th Annual Golf Classic at Edgewood Tahoe. The event sold out weeks in advance and players were greeted with bright blue skies and perfect greens for a great day of golf.
Good news for anyone that has had to wade through deep water and ice to pick up their child from the Club or any of the pre-schools based at Al Tahoe - the parking lot is getting a face lift. Thomas Hain and Company are currently employed by LTUSD to expand the drainage capacity for the parking lot and prevent the large water build up we have seen over past winters. The parking lot will also be regraded to create a downhill slope towards the drain that will help with water run-off. However, they will not be able to eradicate the big dip in the far side of the lot as that is caused by tree roots.
The beginning of the school year and the beginning of summer are always heart wrenching for the Club's admin team as we are forced to set parameters for what is a safe and manageable number of children at our program. Unfortunately, due to our growth in popularity and need for the program, this means that some families - some who have been with us for years - end up on the wait list.
For 86 of our Club members who also happen to be Sierra House students. For those who have missed the news, unfortunately Sierra House renovations have run over by two weeks and that school will now reopen on Monday 9th September. The Club is very proud to once again be able to step up to the plate and assist our families and community by offering an extended summer to all Sierra House students. The extended program will run from 8:30am to 3:30pm Monday through Friday (excluding Labor Day) and will follow our summer schedule of brain gain, art, games, sports and lots of fun. At 3:30pm we will transition to our after-school program and Club Members will be able to stay on for an additional 3 hours if they wish.
