Homewood Mountain Resort

Description.

New Monsoon will be performing at “Homewood Days” the weekend of August 16th-18th, 2013. Join friends and bring the family for the inaugural Homewood Days, a 3-day festival featuring fun activities, music, and events. Food and drink specials will be offered up by the new outdoor Grill at Homewood’s North Lodge, and rentals (bikes, SUP’s, kayaks, & canoes) will also be available. No cost for entry, but some activities may have a nominal fee.

Homewood Days is a celebration of the West Shore and the event is Homewood Mountain Resort’s way of giving back to the people of Tahoe. We will host a free sunset concert, featuring New Monsoon and Lonesome Locomotive; guide a free group paddleboard expedition; and have a Bear League appearance complete with porcupines. We’ve also got plenty more Homewood Days events up our sleeve, including local live music; a cornhole tournament; a historian presentation; and a naturalist hike. Activities for the kids will include everything from a climbing wall and obstacle course to a bounce house and face painting.

Food and drink specials will be offered by the new outdoor Grill at Homewood’s North Lodge, and rentals (bikes, SUP’s, kayaks) will also be available.
