Lake Tahoe Eco-Symposium



SiGBA Presents the Lake Tahoe Eco Symposium on the day before Tahoe Truckee Earth Day, at the beautiful Squaw Creek Resort in Squaw Valley on Friday April 23.

The mission of this event is to give our community members knowledge and stimulate thought on the importance of investing in our environment, communities and business, creating jobs and a sustainable future for the Sierra Nevada region. We will be covering the several topics, with presentations and then questions and answers sessions
