The Sierra State Parks Foundation is partnering with California State Parks to offer a unique kayak tour along the shore of Sugar Pine Point State Park in Lake Tahoe. The tour will take place between the highest elevation operational lighthouse in the U.S. to the park’s southern boundary overlooking Meeks Bay. State Park staff will provide insight into the region’s cultural and natural history under the radiating light of the alpenglow.

The cost of the tour is $55, which includes parking, the kayak rental, mandatory life jackets, and safety training. No experience is necessary. Attendees should arrive at 6:30 p.m. at the restrooms on the Day Use parking lot (lakeside, not campground side of the park), and from there we will walk together to the boat house to pick up rentals. The tour begins at 7:00 p.m. and lasts an hour and a half, plus. Recommended for ages 12 and up. Space is very limited!

Can't attend this one? We have another kayak tour August 12th.

Dauber Up For The Kids!

On Sunday, August 24, 2025, at 10 AM, the Reno Rodeo Foundation invites you to Bingo Brunch at Bighorn Tavern - West Seventh Street for a lively day of laughs, friendly competition, and community impact. This isn't your average bingo game. With bottomless mimosas, Bloody Marys, Irish coffees, and delicious brunch bites, we're raising our glasses--and vital funds--for the Reno Rodeo Foundation's programs benefiting children across 14 Northern Nevada counties.

The stakes? Fabulous prizes, serious bragging rights, and that unbeatable feeling of doing good while having a great time.

By joining us, you're supporting programs like:

Denim Drive: Providing new clothing and hygiene items to abused and neglected children across Northern Nevada.

Reading Rooms: Creating comforting spaces for children in family court with new books and stuffed animals to ease stress and bring joy.

Rodeo Wish: Granting special experiences to children facing serious medical conditions, from dream adventures to essential medical equipment.

Scholarships: Helping students pursue higher education and vocational training with over $2 million awarded to date.

Whether you're a Bingo boss or just here for brunch and fun with friends, your participation ensures these programs continue to thrive and support those who need them most.

All aboard the luxurious Tahoe Serenity for an elegant night where two incredible historical icons recount the Tahoe glory days of their youth. This cruise is a benefit supporting our Tahoe CA State Parks!

The Tahoe Serenity leaves from the Round Hill Pines Beach Resort in Zephyr Cove, NV. It leaves at 5 pm and returns by 7:30 pm. We highly recommend arriving by 4:45 pm to avoid missing the boat! Appetizers and drinks sponsored by the Tahoe Serenity will be served.
