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: BonnieComment text: Good Luck to all of you. I mean this sincerely. My family fought the Navy for years. My parents owned Horse Creek (Pat and Linda Dempsey). 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.
