Description:	The Nevada Conservation League is a non-profit organization incorporated for the purpose of building the power of Nevada's environmental community to involve citizens in the policy making process. Our mission is to maximize the participation of conservation minded voters in public policy decisions made at the national, state and local levels regarding Nevada's environment and natural resources. The need for Nevada Conservation League was identified in two "Nevada Strategic Planning Workshops" held in March 2000 and July 2001. The meeting was hosted by the Progressive Leadership Alliance of Nevada and the League of Conservation Voters Education Fund. Environmental leaders from throughout the state decided to pursue the idea of developing a more concrete entity that unites the diverse groups that make up Nevada's environmental movement. The Nevada Conservation League acquired initial funding from the Federation of State Conservation Voter Leagues. Since hiring a new full time Executive Director in February 2002 the Nevada Conservation League has been focusing on building its infrastructure, building its funding base, and expanding its board. Through the Nevada Conservation League programs to build the capacity of the state's environmental groups, we anticipate that the environmental community will become a more effective advocacy force. Goals: increase conservation voter education and activism in the political process; strengthen the state's environmental organizations capacity to edcuate and activate their members, build their institutions and influence decision-makers; increase the effectiveness of coalitions and foster collaborations; increase and broaden the public support for environmental policies and ideas; harness, educate and activate citizens on key environmental initiatives; increase environmental groups participation in the political process; promote accountability on the legislative, county and local level; increase voter registration and mobilize existing registered voters

Description:	Lake Tahoe is one of our Nation’s most prominent historical areas. Its dynamic geologic and natural history provide the backdrop for its rich cultural heritage, from Washoe camps on the banks of Emerald Bay, through the westward movement and mining age, and the establishment of the tourism industry, Lake Tahoe has been a cornerstone of American history. The North Lake Tahoe Historical Society was founded in 1969 and incorporated in 1971 by a group of concerned citizens who were passionate about this history, and its preservation. Their first major project was to preserve the historic Gatekeeper’s Cabin, then to rebuild the structure as a museum after it was destroyed by arson fire in 1978. The Gatekeeper’s Museum opened in 1981. In 1992, the collections were expanded by the donation of the Marion Steinbach Indian Basket collection. The mission of NLTHS is the preservation, presentation and interpretation of Lake Tahoe history. NLTHS comprises 3 museums with over 3,000 square feet of display space. The Gatekeeper’s Museum sits on the site of a known Washoe Indian campsite.
