Rotary is proud to continue it's Annual Dictionary Project where Rotary Members will be preparing and delivering dictionaries to all 3rd-grade students within Churchill County.  As part of the club’s literacy program, the club deliveries dictionaries to all third-grade students each year and the kids' reactions are truly a great reward.  It is wonderful to see a young student excited over receiving his or her own personal dictionary and giving them the resource to become a creative thinker and writer.

The Rotary Club of Fallon's golf tournament was held last Saturday, June 25th.  It was a huge success!  The day started out being overcast, but by the afternoon, it turned out to be such a beautiful day.  We had amazing raffle prizes and 17 teams come out and pay a round of golf.  Congratulations to winning teams and the raffle prize winners.  A special thank you to the Event Sponsors, the Hole Sponsors, and everyone who donated a raffle item. 
 
Thank you so much for everyone who attended Rotary's end of the year celebration! We had a blast, raised some money, and showed our appreciation to Priscilla. 
President Baker was put on trial for the accusation of completing a successful presidential term. The Honorable Stu, inquisitor Zip, and defender Lane all put up a might fight- however, Priscilla was ultimately found guilty of all charges. This included the serious infraction of losing the bell! 
Donna and Glenn were gracious host who opened their beautiful patio for the event and served some delicious shrimp, steak, deviled eggs, stuffed mushrooms, cheesy potatoes, and salad. Wendell’s mom- Fred- also treated Rotary to some decadent brownies and a mixed fruit dessert. 
Rotary also held its first horse race competition at the party! Stu, Priscilla, Carol, Nancy, John, and Steve all sponsored horses for the race! The horses' names ranged from Donut Eater, Rapunzel, Cinderella, to '2 dudes with a horse get up'. Nancy's horse was the winner, and she took home over $700 in prize money. 
Thank you, Rotary, for being an amazing group of people. We are looking forward to another fantastic year of fun and doing positive things for our community and world.
Cailin Menius-Rash, accepted to Oregon State University in both science and video production,  our own Kyla Trotter, who will be proudly attending the University of Nevada at Reno, pursuing computer science as a major, James Cosman, who will be taking a double major in biotechnology in Texas, and our own Chloe Tanner, who will be happily attending Texas A & M University.  She has decided on business as a major.  Miss Tanner has studied in many DOD schools around the world, and is our soon-to-be newest member's daughter.  We welcome our military connected families from around the world, and are humbled to hear their stories of bravery and sacrifice.   We stand with them, and by them.
These amazing young people stand with Steve Endacott, a long time Fallon Rotary Club member.  "Endo" chaired the subcommittee to oversee the 17 essays submitted by our Churchill County High School and Oasis Academy seniors.  The Fallon Rotary Club traditionally awards each student a $1,000 college scholarship, based on grades, standardized test scores, volunteer service and much more. 
 The club thanks members Jeff Jorgenson, former manager of The Stockman's Casino, Zip Upham, a public relations manager at the Navy base, and of course, the students'  public school teachers and counselors.  It was a joyful event, and the club celebrates our local youth as May is Rotary Youth Month.
