Description:
The Tahoe Daily Tribune in beautiful South Lake Tahoe, Calif., is looking for a community editor to write features and manage press releases, stories, photos and other content submitted by our active readership — both in print and online.

We're looking for someone who sees intriguing story possibilities in pancake breakfasts, kids fishing derbies or a new burger place opening in town. The ideal candidate will be a well-organized, detail-oriented editor who would enjoy working with community members to make their submissions shine. Some photography skills desired.

Thorough knowledge of AP style is required. The selected applicant must be Web-savvy and enthusiastic about learning new Internet applications.

Familiarity with Lake Tahoe's South Shore is a plus.

Interested? E-mail a resume and three to five published writing samples to Managing Editor Elaine Goodman, egoodman@tahoedailytribune.com, or mail to Tahoe Daily Tribune, 3079 Harrison Ave., South Lake Tahoe, CA 96150.

Include a cover letter explaining how you would handle dozens of contributors who all think their event is the most important. EOE.

 

*Rim shot*

 

Amen. That pretty much prepares you for anything.

 

Buckshot?

 

How far is this place from Tahoe?

 

Six blocks.

 

It would take you 15 minutes if you crawled it.

 

And I'm sure it's been done that way, Football_Bat.

 

Tahoe is beautful, obviously, but you had better be able to handle snow if interested in this one. Probably won't pay tons, either, and it's not cheap to live there.

 

Yeah. Pay will be low, rent will be high, and if you're in South Lake Tahoe, it can be fun. I used to live in Truckee and if I ever came back, it would still on the north side of the lake, but in Kings Beach. Best get some chains as well.

 

How far is it from Fresno?
