The Local Lens – Easter Weekend in Incline Village
April 16, 2025 | Linda Offerdahl
Incline churches are active in our community in many ways, helping the needy and lending support to individuals and nonprofits. Many people have found a church home here. But, if you are one of those who only attend on the big religious holidays, this weekend is IT! Brave the cold for the traditional sunrise service at Burnt Cedar with Pastor Jeff Ogden and the Village Church. St. Francis has a sunrise service too, but in the sanctuary at 7 am. St. Patrick’s and Cornerstone also have Easter services. Most have an Easter egg hunt, or breakfast (St. Francis), and Village Church also has a traditional Easter brunch. And of course, check websites for other services during Easter week.
The Hyatt Easter dinner is a great reason to head over to Osteria Sierra after the Easter Egg Hunt at the Hyatt.
If you are looking for something special for a sweet gift, check out the Tandem chocolates (handcrafted and hand-painted!) at Tahoe Gifting Company.
PREPARING FOR WILD-FIRE SEASON
What can we do to protect our property against fires and help to keep our insurance? Attend the vegetation management and home hardening workshop at Prim Library on the UNR campus. It is one of a series of workshops throughout April.
YARD CLEAN-UP is important too. IVGID starts its yard waste pick-up on May 5. Look for the stickers (96 free!) in the mail; the yard waste bags must have the stickers in order to be picked up. NLTFPD starts its defensible space appointments and curbside chipping in mid-May as well.
