Tahoe Institute for Natural Science’s biggest fundraiser of the year, the 11th annual Guitar Strings vs Chicken Wings, took place at Palisades Tahoe on Sept. 6. The event is a local favorite, blending culinary excellence with musical talent for a great cause. PlumpJack claimed the top spot for the second year in a row with its innovative pickleback recipe in the Chicken Wings Competition. Auld Dubliner secured the second-place honors, with Tremigo coming in third.
In the Guitar Strings Competition, Tim High and the Mighty came in first place, Vice Grip secured the second place and No Deal the third. The funds raised will support TINS’ environmental education programming and free community nature outings. | tinsweb.org
