Tahoe Donner

Are you interested in making a difference in your own neighborhood and helping to improve the Tahoe Donner trail system? Tahoe Donner will host a handful of volunteer Trail Work Days and will be seeking volunteers. We hope you will consider getting involved! Contact Sarah Collamer, Trail Steward, at scollamer@tahoedonner.com to sign up.

Saturday, June 23
9 a.m. – 3 p.m.
Improve access to the trail network from Hillside Drive. We will be constructing a new trail to connect Hillside Drive with trail section 6A-7A. There is an existing trail that will decommission and rerouted on to higher ground. This project will require digging, heavy lifting and use of hand tools. We will also be doing trash removal and vegetation trimming along the Nature Loop near Northwoods Boulevard. The Nature Loop needs a spruce up; it is one of the most heavily used trails in TD and receives a lot of trash from the road. This project will be better for families with small kids or anyone requiring lighter duty. We hope to cover the length of the Nature Loop from the Northwoods Clubhouse to the driving range.

Sunday, July 29
9 a.m. – 3 p.m.
Meet at the the Forestry Office, 14514 Northwoods Blvd.
Trails day will include work on the trail #27-28 which is located just off of Teton Way. We recommend that you wear work gloves, long pants, sturdy shoes, sunglasses and a hat. Bring sunscreen, bagged lunch/snacks and water bottle. Volunteer work crew along with Forestry staff will be park at the new forestry property near the Teton trailhead (off of Skislope Way).  It is a short walk to the trail we are working on, so volunteers will have access to their cars.

Saturday, August 25
9 a.m. – 3 p.m.

Believe it or not you still have about two weeks left to become a Tahoe Donner Trooper. This summer we introduced this new program to everyone who visits Tahoe Donner.

The Tahoe Donner Trooper Guide is full of challenges - from building sandcastles at the Beach Club Marina, to stopping in at Bikeworks to say hello to the friendly staff.

It’s really simple to join in the fun! Pick-up your Tahoe Donner Trooper Guide at the Trout Creek Recreation Center, the Recreation Information Hut or Member Services office at Northwoods Clubhouse. Everyone who collects stamps at five of the eight challenges will become 2012 Tahoe Donner Trooper! Winners will get a cool hat and be entered to win the grand prize. Guides must be completed by September 3 and the grand prize winner will be announced at Fall Festival on October 13.

Get outside, explore, try something new, and have fun with the entire family before the summer is over!

Does the term Stored Value mean anything to you while you’re at Tahoe Donner? Did you know you can put money on your Tahoe Donner Membership ID cards? It is called Stored Value. You no longer have to carry money or your credit card with you when you visit Tahoe Donner’s amenities. It’s very easy to put value (money) on your card. You can come into the Member Services office with your credit card and Tahoe Donner staff can put the money on your card for you. Or you can call them at (530) 587-9400 ext. 0.

To redeem your stored value, simply tell the Tahoe Donner staff that you have Stored Value on your Tahoe Donner Member or Guest ID card. Your receipt will display the balance left on the ID card.

Remember to always take your Tahoe Donner Member or Guest ID card with you to use stored value at the amenities. This program was introduced last summer and received rave reviews and participation. So, don’t worry about carrying your wallet, stored value and your membership ID or Guest card is all you need this summer at your personal resort.

Everyone loves live music in the summer! From the Summer Concert Series, to Music in the Grotto, Tahoe Donner’s events will have you singing and dancing all summer long!
