Cantaloupe Queen Running for County Commission District 3
Sumbitted by the Kelli Kelly for Commissioner campaign -- Kelli Kelly, 2018 Cantaloupe Festival and Country Fair Queen, reminisced about her first memories in Fallon. “The Cantaloupe Festival was the first Fallon adventure that we had after moving to town on August 26, 2009.  We met our neighbors, watched cantaloupe trebuchets, drank cantaloupe daiquiris, and generally had a great time. Since then, the Cantaloupe Festival marks the anniversary of our moving to Fallon.” The Kelly’s have made Fallon their home, and Kelli has becomes a tremendous advocate for her community.  Kelli is the Executive Director of the Fallon Food Hub, working to support local agricultural producers. She serves on the Nevada Farms Conference Board and Planning committee, NevadaGrown Board of Directors, and Western Nevada College, Specialty Crop Institute Advisory Committee. “Churchill County is the bread basket of West Central Nevada. Our farmers, ranchers, and dairymen work tirelessly to raise food for people, and feed for livestock--I love promoting products raised in Churchill County and encouraging people to source their food from within our foodshed.”  Said Kelly. Additionally Kelli serves on the Board of Directors for the Fallon Youth Club, the Career and Technical Education Advisory Committee - Churchill County School District and the Churchill County Library Board of Trustees. "When I first moved to Churchill County with my husband Neil, I fell fast-and-hard in love with this amazing community. I am delighted to live in a place where it is so easy to get involved and to make a difference--which is exactly what I sought to do through involvement with non-profits focused on youth, education, and local food.  It is my hope to continue to grow my support and involvement in our community by running for Churchill County Commissioner representing District 3.” The general election will be held in November of 2020, filing dates and dates of the primary election will be announced as they become available.

Comment author: Jeff goings Comment text: September 11, article Civics 101 I would like to commend Rachael Dahl and the Fallon post for their article. Civics 101. This is a reminder that we as citizens live in a representative form of government and why it is so important that we vote as voting is our way of making our voice heard.

When we bought our land in Kingston, Sis regaled us with her stories of gatherings at the old restaurant & bar on the way to Groves lake. Sis often said, 'What happens in Kingston stays in Kingston!' Fun & funny lady. Comment publication date: 9/8/26, 5:58 PM Comment source: Marilyn J. “Sis” Banovich Comment author: Ruth Fiege Comment text: So sorry for the pain your family is suffering. She is in comfort of Jesus arms. This is Ruth Fiege, Gary's cousin from WI. I can't begin to imagine the pain your family is suffering. So much comfort in knowing she and baby are with Jesus. God Bless you all during this tragedy.
