As excitement builds for VanWood Tahoe, we were thrilled to see the festival featured on local news. On March 31, Mallory Mahon, Special Events Coordinator for the Boys & Girls Club of Lake Tahoe, joined Rebecca Kitchen of KOLO 8 for a live interview to share what makes this inaugural event so special.
The segment offered a glimpse into what attendees can expect April 10–12 at Kirkwood Mountain Resort, where VanWood Tahoe will bring together skiing and snowboarding, live music, camping, and community in one unforgettable spring weekend.
Bringing Mountain Culture to Life
During the interview, Mallory highlighted the vision behind VanWood Tahoe: creating a space where outdoor adventure and community connection come together. From van lifers and weekend warriors to families and first-time campers, the event is designed to welcome everyone who shares a love for the mountains.
Viewers got a preview of the festival’s unique blend of activities, including:
On-mountain skiing and riding
Live music performances throughout the weekend
Camping under the Sierra stars
Community-driven experiences in the village
More Than Just a Festival
At its core, VanWood Tahoe is about impact. Proceeds from the event directly support programs at the Boys & Girls Club of Lake Tahoe, helping provide a safe, supportive environment for local youth.
Mallory spoke to how important events like this are—not just for bringing people together, but for strengthening the community and supporting the next generation.
