The Rock-n-River Marathon seeks individuals 18 years old and older for race crew traffic positions for the May 3 race. The race crew secures and monitors the race, including road closure support, directing runners, detouring traffic and calling for support for participants if needed.
Volunteers check-in at the Harrah’s Plaza at 5:30 a.m. and are expected to work between one to four and a half hours depending on assignments. To volunteer call Catherine McFeely at (775) 846-0706 or e-mail CateMcF14@aol.com.
The 2008-2009 ski and board season is coming to an end, so get up to Lake Tahoe this weekend at all costs! Sunny weather and great (fresh) snow is on the menu. Check out this video from Alpine Meadows if you need to get pumped up:
This week is feeling a little more like winter than spring in the Sierra Nevada, with several inches of new snowfall, and powder conditions. That means great conditions for skiers looking to get a last-gasp trip in before the season winds to an end.
Resorts have marked their calendars preparing to close up for summer, so be sure to get to the mountain before its too late.
A sample of Tahoe-area closing dates for the 2008-2009 season:
Mt. Rose Ski Tahoe: April 19 for daily operation; the resort will be open for weekend operation April 24-26 and May 1-3
