INCLINE VILLAGE, Nev. – The Incline Village/Crystal Bay Community Forum recently held its bi-monthly meeting, which brought together residents and community leaders to discuss pressing issues and hear from candidates for Washoe County Commission, Incline Village General Improvement District (IVGID) Board of Trustees, and Washoe County School District Board.

North Lake Tahoe Fire Protection District Chief Ryan Sommers started the meeting with updates on wildfire awareness, defensible space evaluations, and filing complaints with the Nevada State Insurance Commissioner regarding homeowner’s insurance issues.

“We absolutely know there’s an issue (with wildfire insurance),” Sommers said. “It is statewide. California is going through it. Nevada is now definitely going through it. I’ve been in contact with our delegates in Washington D.C., a local lobbyist, and a national lobbyist. We are definitely doing our due diligence. We’ve also met with the Nevada State Insurance Commissioner.

LAKE TAHOE, Calif. And Nev. – Mother’s Day is just around the corner on May 12, and there’s no better place to honor the special mom in your life than the breathtaking Lake Tahoe region. Lake Tahoe has something to delight every mother, from rejuvenating spa retreats to mouthwatering brunch feasts and outdoor adventures amid incredible natural scenery.

Treat mom to pampering at world-class spas

An awesome way to say “thanks” is with a luxurious spa day experience on May 11 in Incline Village. The Hyatt Regency Lake Tahoe Resort, Spa, and Casino offers the ultimate wellness experience with their Elemental Immersion package.

It begins with a breath-work session and intention-setting cold plunge in the lake led by expert practitioner Brooke Haley. Then mom can nourish her body with a healthy lakeside meal at Lone Eagle Grille before participating in sound healing meditation surrounded by ethereal flutes, gongs, and Tibetan singing bowls. The experience concludes with a symbolic “letting go” fire ceremony. At $495, it’s a splurge, but an unforgettable one.
