City of Fallon New Year’s Fireworks Better than Ever

Author: Denise Edgmon

The City of Fallon has put on a fireworks show on New Year’s Eve every year since 1999 when Mayor Ken Tedford hosted a year long celebration to usher in the new centennial, during 2000. Held at 6:00 p.m. so that community children can enjoy the show, the fireworks are held at the Churchill County Fairgrounds and can be seen from nearly every home in the community.

Traditionally, the fireworks show culminates in a bonfire celebration with hot chocolate and visiting, where the community’s Christmas trees can be burned. This year that part of the celebration was cancelled, however, popular opinion was that the Mayor and City Council outdid themselves this year with the fireworks show.

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.
