Discount lift tickets for Squaw Valley & Alpine Meadows
Discount lift tickets for Squaw Valley & Alpine Meadows
It does not look like we will have a White Christmas this year at Tahoe. The 2011-2012 season started out full of promises with a snowstorm in early October that gave us 10-14 inches of snow. Sadly we have not had much precipitation since and now I look out into my yard & see just a few patches of snow here and there.
However I am optimistic that we will have epic snow coming up and there will be awesome skiing days ahead. Speaking about great skiing, I have some amazing discount lift tickets for you at Alpine Meadows and Squaw Valley. Instead of the normal daily rate of $92-96, you can now purchase $50 discount lift tickets to be used for the week of January 29-February 3 (Sunday-Friday). All proceeds from the sale of these tickets will go toward funding Arts For The School. Arts For The School is a non profit organization that brings professional artists to the community & students in the Lake Tahoe Truckee area.
There are only 200 discount lift tickets for Squaw Valley & Alpine Meadows available so if you would like to purchase some, please contact Ann immediately.

Arts For the Schools, Truckee CA
Arts For the Schools in Truckee CA is a community based non profit organization founded by Terry Yagura in 1984. It was formed with the purpose of raising funds to bring professional artists to the students and community at large. Over the past 25 years, students and adults in the Tahoe Truckee Incline Village areas have benefited from performances of both local & world renown artists. Arts For the School has been instrumental in providing students with hands-on experience and interaction with these professional artists.
Recent performances include Alpin Hong, a classical pianist with stunning techniques and rare humor & Falla Guitar Trio, a top guitar ensemble with a repertoire ranging from classical pieces to original work and improvised jazz.
Most recently Arts For the School invited Judson Laipply who is famous for creating the YouTube video “Evolution of the Dance”, one of the most watched video on the internet.

Future performance features Kevin Johnson who is a master ventriloquist. Kevin has appeared on American Got Talent and The Late Show with David Letterman. His show is a hit with all age groups. Expect magic with Kevin’s amazing skills in bringing his puppets characters to life.
In addition to the School & Public Performance Series, Arts For the Schools also has an Artist-In-Residence program which provides 3rd-5th grade students access to professional arts instruction in the classroom. All our three children brought home beautiful painted eggs taught by artist-in-residence Cathee St. Clair that we still treasure today.
Raine Howe is the current executive director. She is passionate about arts & commits to continue in Terry Yagura’s footstep to promote the growth for Arts For the School in the years to come.
We had the honor of hosting two private receptions for Alpin Hong & Falla Guitar Trio in appreciation of the donors & supporters for Arts For the School. It was a fun event filled with good food, great company, laughter and music. We feel blessed to live in a community that cares about arts & supports this program through generous funding & donations. We expect many more great performances in the next season & hope to see all of you at the next event.
