Today is Memorial Day, a day of reflection and remembrance of those who died while serving in the U.S. military.  The holiday is observed in part by the National Moment of Remembrance, which encourages all Americans to pause at 3 pm for a moment of silence.  So while we enjoy the three day weekend, please pause and reflect on those who sacrificed their lives for our freedom.

 

Despite occasional distant thunder and a few sprinkles, club members attending the social on Friday had a great time at The Eddy.  Harvey's dog was especially pleased by the selection of food crumbs that occasionally hit the ground.  We had a great turnout and enjoyed food, drink and engaging conversation.  Thank you Nick Connell for arranging the evening!

 

 

 

Nine of our club members showed up at the Purple Parrot last Friday as their was no scheduled meeting.  We were "DARK" last Friday as we had a planned evening social.  You can always count on this group of stalwarts to keep the 7 am tradition going.

We will be hearing from Greg Nauman of the Trauma Intervention Program of Northern Nevada.  They provide well-trained citizen volunteers at emergency scenes to assist family members, witnesses, and other bystanders whom the emergency system often must leave behind.  See you then!

 

President Craig shared this photograph of a remote Nevada reservoir taken during one of his recent fly fishing trips.  We are so fortunate to have such beautiful pristine country in our own backyard.
