Greetings from Reno-Tahoe!

We are kicking off the New Year with great intentions – to have more fun! Our team has so much gratitude for this place that we call home and all of the wonderful recreation that it provides. We are just getting into the winter season and wanted to share with you some of our favorite local activities – you can even enjoy them with social distancing!

 

Ice Skating

Either way, there are plenty of places in Reno and around Lake Tahoe to lace up your skates. Ice skating is great for the kids and grandkids too! Most places have gear available to help the

As we are all adjusting to a temporary "new normal" with COVID-19, our team thought it would be fun to do a light-hearted interview. Nestle in, grab your favorite snack, and join us for a little Q&A. 

What is the best silver lining with the additional time at home?

 

Brooke Sullivan: Spending time with my family. Getting to enjoy my daughters without being in a rush to fit it all in. 

Rob Wonhof: Time for continuing education and it can all be done virtually (instead of half live classes).  I am going to start any minute now!

Monica Gore: Being able to spend quality time with my children without distraction. They really love the additional attention I'm giving them and that makes us all happy.

Parents of middle schoolers rejoice! The opening of the new Marce Herz Middle School (MHMS) will be a huge boon for our community.

Students from the South Reno neighborhoods of ArrowCreek, Montreux, Saddlehorn, Fieldcreek, Mount Rose, Galena Forest and St. James Estates currently have to make the trek 10+ miles to Pine Middle School, which is located near Meadowood Mall off Neil Road. With the first bell at 7:20am, those students taking district transportation often have to hop on the bus as early as 6:30am. In the winter months, this means waiting for the bus before the sun even comes up.  

When MHMS opens this August 2020, it’ll be in a much better centralized location. Situated at 13455 Thomas

Thanksgiving is a time to express gratitude, so it’s the perfect opportunity to share why we cherish our Montrêux Golf & Country Club. Conveniently located between Reno and Lake Tahoe, Montrêux is a private, 726-acre golf course community with approximately 550 luxury home sites. The centerpiece is the renowned 18-hole, Jack Nicklaus Signature Championship Course.

Here are 15 reasons why we are thankful for Montrêux:
