After a busy Fourth of July weekend, The League to Save Lake Tahoe set out on their annual beach cleanup. The League has been hosting the lake cleanup since 2013.

This year, The League hosted the same cleanup but had to follow safety precautions by instituting a RSVP policy, volunteer cap, social distancing and reducing sites to three different cleanup locations: Kings Beach, Nevada Beach and Regan Beach. Twelve out of the 136 volunteers went to remote locations.
