A Dream Ten Years in the Making Comes True - Fallon On Ice

A Dream Ten Years in the Making Comes True - Fallon On Ice

The Fallon Chamber Ambassadors joined the Fallon City Council and the public works staff who have worked so hard to get the ice rink ready for the holiday season on Saturday, November 18 for an official ribbon cutting kicking off the ice-skating season that will run through January 6. 

Mayor Ken Tedford joked during his remarks that former Assemblyman Tom Grady reminded him recently at a meeting that Tedford has been talking about an ice-skating rink in Fallon for over ten years. This weekend that dream has come true, turning downtown Fallon into a real-life Hallmark Movie. 

Next week the annual Tree Lighting event and Holiday Open House will begin on Friday, December 1, at 4 p.m. at City Hall for the Open House and 6 p.m. for the Tree Lighting.

One of my most favorite stories Paul told dated back to the late 60s or early 70s and it revolved around him killing a deer way out in the mountains. Naturally the deer ran down into a deep canyon and died. Knowing that it would take him forever to haul it out he devised an awesome plan. After preparing the deer he drove back to NAS Fallon and rustled up a SAR crew and they flew out and picked up the deer. Of course it was labeled as a training flight but what the hell in those days you could do that sort of thing. Rest in Peace my friend until we meet again!!Comment publication date: 4/11/24, 1:15 PMComment source: Obituary - LCDR Paul N PflimlinComment author: THughesComment text: So sad to hear.
