Dear Lake Tahoe community members, business owners and visitors,

A tremendous amount of work and collaboration has been underway since the Lake Tahoe Destination Stewardship Plan was released last June. The Destination Stewardship Council was created, I stepped into the role of Managing Director of the Council seven months ago, “action teams” aligned with the plan’s strategic pillars were formed, and progress is already being made to address the plan priorities informed by your participation (and that of over 3,000 others!).

I’m also thrilled to share that the plan was recently recognized by the Society of Outdoor Recreation Professionals for its outstanding contributions to outdoor recreation and honored with a 2024 Project Excellence Award!

So that you can continue to follow the collaborative efforts of the now more than 30 partners from across the region who are focused on implementing the plan’s priorities, we are sending out a seasonal newsletter. Please check out the newsletter to learn about some of the great work already underway!

All my best,
Nettie Pardue
Managing Director, Lake Tahoe Destination Stewardship Council
