Wishing Tree Applications Now Available

Due back by Oct. 20 at 5 p.m.
Wishing Tree Applications Now Available

The 2020 Wishing Tree program is now accepting applications from families meeting income and residency requirements who want help in providing for their kids this holiday season.

The Wishing Tree program is possible due to the combined volunteer efforts of the CC Communications Independent Telecommunications Pioneer Association, Churchill County Social Services and community members wanting to lend a helping hand.

Applications can be picked-up in person from the Social Services Office, 485 West B Street, Suite 105 in Fallon during normal business hours. Please ring the bell on the counter and someone will be out to help you.

Applications are due back to the Social Services Office no later than Tuesday, October 20 at 5 p.m. Late applications cannot be accepted.

Wishing trees will be placed in various locations around the community closer to the holidays. Those wanting to help should pull a child’s “ornament” from the tree for basic information like age, gender and clothing size to aid in their shopping.

More details will be posted as they are finalized in the coming months.

They strung them along for years until they had no financial choice but to accept and get out. My Dad even hauled water for the Snow ranch trying to stay afloat. May God bless you all. I truly pray it works out for you.Comment publication date: 3/28/26, 9:22 PMComment source: Local Rancher Says Navy Land Expansion is Devastating His Family RanchComment author: Lynn JohnsonComment text: I remember your mother well; she was a lovely and kind woman.

I see glimpses of your face in the years worn onto my dad. It makes me feel more connected to you in some way. I remember the familiar kindness from you that I know in my dad. I would’ve really liked to have a good conversation. I only have a handful of memories with you, but you were loving, and you were kind. I wish I was able to say more. If I am someone to you, I hope I make you proud. Thank you Aunt for this sweet post.Comment publication date: 3/27/26, 12:11 AMComment source: Obituary -- Randolph Floris Banovich C Comment author: RBCComment text: The Navy should reimburse the market cost of replacing the grazing land they are taking.
