If you haven’t heard this yet, you’ve been spending too much time on the beach and not enough time on your social media! Natural Grocers had their grand opening this morning. It’s the first major building development along Tahoe Blvd. for a long time and it brings a sense of vitality to “main street”. The mural that will be on the front-facing wall, commissioned to local artist Sara Smith will add public art, including a portion that engages the public for completion. I had a “sneak peek” last night while shopping their amazing stock of ALL organic products! It’s guilt-free chocolate if it is dark and organic, right?
Kudos to Natural Grocer for donating $2500 to the Food Bank of Northern Nevada (and for joining IVCBA!). For a national chain, they are doing all the right things to fit into the community.
I need a vacation from my “staycation”. There’s too much to do! If that sounded like a complaint, it isn’t. I am bragging about all of the wonderful cultural and musical opportunities nearly every night of the week. What I am looking forward to the most next week: The Reno Phil’s tribute to Tina Turner on Monday at Sand Harbor. 80s dress-up opportunity everyone! I think I still have my Tina wig from my Dress The Party store days. Maybe I’ll wear the gold glitter pants I got from Panache on sale a couple of years ago. Don’t let me be the only one dressed up!
I am not a beach girl, but Chris Talbot and Around Tahoe Tours are going to treat me and my company like VIPs and set up tents and gear on the Sand Harbor beach on Saturday. No line, no schlepping? Priceless! His tours are awesome…check it out at https://www.aroundtahoe.com.
BEST KEPT SECRET…
This is to see if you read the Lens to the end. IVCBA has been all about beautification this spring and summer. My husband and I have built a sculpture park on Lariat Circle called Joyous Journey. It is our personal contribution to beautifying Incline and also a sanctuary where I can relax and recharge. Although it is not a public space per se, it is open to anyone who hears about it “word of mouth”, to walk through and enjoy the colorful art and landscaping respectfully. Enjoy!
Until the recent tech sell-off most broad market measures were near all-time highs. I’ve heard it called a buying panic, a melt up, or simply traders doing what traders do — chase strength. But no one should call it irrational exuberance, a term first used (quite prematurely) by Alan Greenspan in the late 1990s. Investors are not irrational at all. They have reasons to be increasingly bullish.
The U.S. economy rose at an annual rate of 2.8 percent for April through June.
Household spending, the main driver of the U.S. economy, increased at a quicker pace as Americans’ incomes continued to rise. There’s more good news: The personal consumption expenditures price index, the Fed’s favored inflation measure, cooled to 2.5 percent from a year ago. That’s not far from their 2 percent goal.
While the media are focused on politics financial markets are going their own way, as they always have in the past, no matter the election prospects. Investors were never so distracted that they forgot that investing isn’t a bet on the president, it’s a bet on Corporate America. It is all about future earnings and interest rates. Allow for large daily swings, as we keep seeing, but in the end it all comes down to earnings and interest rates.
The near certainty that rates will be cut in September, and likely soon thereafter, coupled with earnings growth and the impact of AI, is driving stocks higher. Reports still to come on second-quarter earnings will help too, except perhaps for some high-profile tech companies that are priced for perfection.
Over several articles I warned that a bull market driven only by a few technology stocks wasn’t sustainable. Since then, the broader market played catch-up. Over the last month the tech heavy Nasdaq 100 Index fell 3.4 percent while S&P Mid-Cap Index rose 5.3 percent and the S&P Small-Cap Index jumped 10.7 percent! I can’t recall such a quick and dramatic rotation.
For investors focused on growth with income, my focus remains on stocks in four sectors — energy, utility, healthcare, and financial services. Holdings include Williams Companies (WMB), Oneok (OKE), Merck (MRK), Amgen (AMGN) and Bank of America (BAC). My favorites all pay dividends and most if not all will raise them year after year. Add in Ares Capital (ARCC) and some exchange-traded debt and you have a recipe for rising total returns and better days no matter the election results. That is a winning strategy.

Star Follies Raises ~$70k for Incline Public Schools
The highly anticipated return of the Incline Star Follies made a spectacular return to Incline this past spring, captivating audiences with an unforgettable evening of talent and community spirit. Held at the Incline High School’s Duffield Theater, this year’s event marked a joyful reunion of performers, volunteers, and supporters, celebrating the resilience and creativity of the Incline Village community.
“We are thrilled to be back!,” said Katie Goldberg, one of the original Follies founders. “This event is not only a showcase of our community’s talent but also a testament to the hidden talent within our community. The commitment and hard work of the volunteer performers ensured that the Follies returned with a bang, rekindling the spirit of camaraderie and creativity in our town”.
The Follies also functions as a vital fundraising event for the Incline public schools. Thanks to a generous grant from the Dave & Cheryl Duffield Foundation, which covered production costs, the event successfully raised nearly $70,000. These funds will be directed towards supporting the diverse programs offered by the Incline Education Fund.
Set your calendars for next year’s event on May 2nd and 3rd 2025.
We have an annual Rotary Labor Day Duck Drop each year at the Aspen Grove lower green from 9-10:30am. The NLTFPD is our partner, and they bring out the ladder truck and help us drop hundreds of rubber ducks on a target to pick winners of cash prizes of several heats, a championship Finals drop and a high-roller’s Platinum Duck drop. Funds raised go to support local and global projects.
We are starting our Duck Ticket Sales tables on the next two Sunday Mornings from 8-12 at Incline Plaza near Drink Coffee Do Stuff. Then we will have tables as detailed on the flyer starting the first week in August.
Lu Sweeney Rotary Club of Incline Village Past President
The northeast shore’s newest booming summer music festival is back as the multi-day Gambler’s Run returns to the Crystal Bay Club Casino for its second year in a row.
For a while now, the staff at the Crystal Bay Club have been wanting to create an event where locals and visitors could gather at the Tahoe’s northern state line to enjoy the great music that the casino is known for, along with enjoying delicious food, drinks, and local arts & crafts vendors.
This is the second year of the Gambler’s Run, which will take place July 26-28, 2024, on Crystal Bay Club grounds.
Last year the CBC hosted 26 bands over three days, but this year the Gambler’s Run has been condensed down to include bigger names that will be playing longer sets. In its inaugural 2023 year, local-ish bands such as Six Mile Station and Hot Buttered Rum played while this summer California native favorites Donavon Frankenreiter, Jackie Greene, and The Mother Hips are on the bill. Pigeons Playing Ping Pong will also be back, headlining on Friday night with special guest Karl Denson and playing the afterparty on Saturday night.
Crystal Bay Club will have the same general setup as it did last year for the Gambler’s Run, with two stages outdoor and indoor with live music going 2pm-midnight for all three days. The casino also added a kickoff party this year with Grammy nominee Samantha Fish for Thursday night (July 25th).
“It’s a diverse group of musicians including funk, jam, bluegrass, americana,” says CBC General Manager Eric Roe. A lot of these bands have played at the Crown Room over the years as well.
When asked why musicians like playing at the CBC, Roe replies, “Our acoustics are amazing in the Crown Room. We have a rich music history and good energy here in the North Shore. We have a lot of passionate music lovers here.”
Along with a variety of food trucks and local artisan vendors that had already signed up by early May, Roe adds that they’re “collaborating with some big heavy hitter nonprofits” on the sustainability front this year, too. The Tahoe Fund, League to Save Lake Tahoe, Sierra Nevada Alliance, and Tahoe Environmental Research Center (TERC) are just a few organizations that will be giving educational talks between band sets. This year’s festival will be implementing sustainable practices and to be as waste-free as possible. “Zero waste, zero plastic” is what they’re shooting for, Roe reiterates.
Although there is no camping available at the Crystal Bay Club, the CBC has partnered with Incline Lodge to offer Gambler’s Run room packages.
“The majority of festivals offer camping so finding lodging partners was a big goal for us this year,” he says. When asked what his favorite part of the festival was last year, Roe replies, “The overall vibe out there was just incredible. And it looks like it will be well-attended this year.
“We’ve been collaborating with musicians [throughout the year] to give the people what they want. We want to make the Gambler’s Run about them [the audience], for them,” Roe says.
“It has been a goal of mine to get outdoor national acts on the North Shore for years now, so to finally see that come to fruition was incredible,” he adds.
2024 Gambler’s Run tickets are capped at a thousand people per day and as of early June, there were still a few 3-day passes available for purchase. “But I would get them sooner than later,” says Roe.

In The News – Final improvements to the Mount Rose Trailhead will affect public access to facilities

Originally published in the Tahoe Daily Tribune, 07/18/2024, Submitted
INCLINE VILLAGE, Nev. – Parts of the Mount Rose Trailhead, off Mt. Rose Highway (Nevada State Route 431) between Reno and Lake Tahoe, Nevada, will be closed at different times this summer to finish improvements to the Mount Rose Welcome Plaza and parking lot. The completion of this project has been long awaited and the public’s patience is much appreciated.
The Mount Rose Welcome Plaza is currently closed to allow the contractor, Ironwood Commercial Builders Inc. from Concord California, to place a coating on the concrete walkways in and around the plaza to preserve them. The contractor will also be finishing up the repair work on the plaza’s roof that was damaged by an avalanche in the winter of 2016-2017 sometime in September once the contractor’s proposal has been finalized.
“We apologize for having to close the Mount Rose Welcome Plaza’s restrooms again after just getting them reopened,” said Carson Ranger District Recreation Management Specialist Chris Eddy. “Portable toilets have been installed at the trailhead, while the restrooms are closed.”
