Friends of the West Shore is organizing a volunteer program for residents and visitors called Tahoe Nearshore Dippers.

The program provides a different way to spend some time on the beach this summer. It will involve collecting information that will help monitor the water clarity of near shore areas.

Tahoe Nearshore Dippers will help collect information for Lake Tahoe using an easy and fun method to take measurements, and on your schedule.
