Lake Tahoe Travel’s social series, The Deep Dive, is looking for stories that celebrate what makes your business uniquely Tahoe. July's theme highlights the history and culture of Lake Tahoe's iconic wooden boats, while August focuses on the tradition of taking a dip in the lake.
Does your restaurant have a cocktail or dinner special inspired by wooden boats? Are you offering a special for guests attending the Lake Tahoe Concours d'Elegance? Or do you have a refreshing summer menu item or experience perfect after a day at the lake? Retail shops, restaurants, breweries, wineries, and other local businesses are invited to share signature offerings, behind-the-scenes stories, and seasonal experiences that bring these themes to life.
