Less than 3 Months till 2011 Tee Times

It's Easter Sunday - and Heavenly's chair lifts are closing down for the season. Not sure about your back yard - but it's been a looong winter here at Lake Tahoe. Excellent for winter sports and water run off from the Sierras to the fertile valleys of Central California. But now - it's time to think about warm temps and fun in the sun. Now it's time for world class pro bicycle races - and golf. Right now, the whole Tahoe Basin is pumped up about the forthcoming AMGEN Tour of California. The biggest bike race in the USA kicks off its 800 mile trek right here at South Lake Tahoe on May 15th. Check it out at TahoeSouth.com

The 23rd annual Tahoe Celebrity Golf Week starts on Tuesday, July 12th. This year's American Century Championship promises to be the biggest most exciting tournament ever. So plan your trip to the Super Bowl of Celebrity Sports at Edgewood Tahoe now. For information on online ticket sales go to TahoeCelebrityGolf.com/tickets.html

Reigning tournament champion - the personable Billy Joe Tolliver, returns to defend his title. Could a two-peat be in the works? BJ did set a new score record last year. But as in 2010 - the "Packetizer" will have the likes of Tony Romo, Jack Wagner, John Smoltz and Big John Elway breathing down his neck. Not to mention the serious threats from multi year winners Rick Rhoden and Dan Quinn.

NBA greats Michael Jordan and Charles Barkley are returning to Tahoe. And, you'll have the chance to welcome at least a Bakers Dozen brand new Celebrity Players to the American Century Championship - including the 2011 College Basketball Player of the Year - Jimmer Fredette.
