Leadership Lake Tahoe will be holding a silent auction at the 2008 Business Expo, whose focus is on sustaining business and community in Lake Tahoe. Leadership Lake Tahoe believes that the best way to sustain our community is to start with our youth. In that vein, all proceeds from the silent auction will be donated to Tahoe Youth and Family Services.

Since 1971, Tahoe Youth and Family Services has provided counseling to youth and families in South Lake Tahoe. Over the years, services have expanded to include street outreach to runaway and homeless youth and mentoring programs. Tahoe Youth and Family Services believes in providing opportunities that change lives and create the productive, caring citizens and leaders of tomorrow.

Supporting Tahoe Youth and Family Services is an investment in our community, and we invite our local businesses and community members to donate items to the silent auction to help invest in South Lake Tahoe’s future. To make a donation please contact the Lake Tahoe South Shore Chamber of Commerce. You’re invited to attend the 2008 Business Expo and make a purchase at the silent auction.

A special thank you to South Tahoe Express, Tahoe Telephone Directories, Charter Media, Barton University, and the Barton University Resource Center for their very generous donations.
