Camp Schedule (for both sessions)*
Sign up for Lake Tahoe Camp
Come to sunny South Lake Tahoe, CA, an amazing outdoor playground with a
huge variety of activities for outdoor enthusiasts, casinos for those
wishing to play a different type of game, and of course Weekend Warriors
Adult Hockey Academy!
The Rink
The camp will be held at the South Lake Tahoe Ice Arena. This is a
state of the art facility located in the heart of South Lake Tahoe.
It is one of the cleanest and brightest (there is a giant window that looks
out on the beautiful outdoor surroundings) ice facility we have ever seen,
and the staff goes out of their way to accommodate the needs of our staff
and players. It is a true pleasure to hold and attend a camp at this
rink. You may visit their website at:

Hotel Accommodations
(The hotel information is from the 2008 season, and
is only provided as a guide. 2009 info will be posted as soon as it is
finalized. Do not attempt to make a reservation until the 2009
information is posted)
Hotel: Best Western - Timber Cove Lodge
Rate: $68/night. This is an outstanding rate that we are able to get
because it is not yet peak season, and we have been coming here for several
years. Book rooms 30 days in advance to guarantee availability at
the negotiated rate. This rate is for non-view rooms. However, the
hotel has expressed that they can book rooms with views of the lake at a higher
rate with a similar discount applied.
Reservations: May be made directly with the hotel at 530-541-6722 or
toll-free at 800-972-8558. Be sure to let them know you are with the "Weekend Warriors Hockey"
group.
Because these numbers are answered by a national reservation line during off
hours, we recommend that you call for your reservations between 9 AM and 5 PM
Pacific time (7 days a week), and confirm that you are speaking with the local
property in Lake Tahoe. (Often times the personnel that answer the
national reservation lines are not aware of special group arrangements like the
ones we have negotiated with the property.)
Location: ½ mile from arena.
Wireless Internet: Hotel has free high speed wireless internet access
in the 100, 300 and 400 buildings. If you would like this access, be sure
to inform the reservationist when you book your room.

If you are coming alone and would like to share a room with another player,
please let us know, and we will try to make these arrangements for you, but
cannot guarantee that a roommate will be available. For best opportunity,
call early.
Alternative Accommodations for those that want
to rough it: Campground By The Lake
This campground is located adjacent to the arena.
You can roll out of bed and into your skates, but you'll need to bring your
bed. If you
choose this option, please call them directly to book a site at
530-542-6096. You can also view their website at
