On a beautiful brisk Saturday morning, April 30, 2011, Kiwanis of Sierra Nevada members picked up trash, dog deposits and painted at Blackwell’s Pond Park. They were the first service club last year to adopt a Carson City Park.

“Our club has a positive attitude, things are always picking up,” said President elect John Ryals. “Kiwanis is a global organization of volunteers dedicated to changing the world, one child and one community at a time.”

The Silver City Community Partners, formerly known as the Silver City Task Force, has announced a full summer schedule of community events and programs. The tightknit community of Silver City works together to offer a free summer youth program, monthly community dinners, cultural events, a volunteer library, cooking lessons, and a community garden.

The annual student exhibits fill all three galleries at the Carson City campus, spreads throughout the Fallon campus, and includes student and faculty creations from the Douglas campus and rural teaching centers.
Works are as diverse as the college's course offerings - from painting and drawing to multimedia art, electronic arts, printmaking, photography, sculpture and pottery.

The following obituary was submitted by Jeff Cowen, community liaison for the Tahoe Regional Planning Agency on the passing of spokesman Dennis Oliver:

Almost immediately a movement began to help Vikki and her family with this struggle. The response was immediate and overwhelming. People from all over the city began to ask what they could do to help, so a benefit fundraiser was arranged.
