The Lahontan and Stillwater Conservation District announced the winners of their "One Water" poster contest. The creative competition engaged students from Oasis, Churchill County High School, and the Churchill County School District - Title VI Program.

This annual contest is organized by the National Association of Conservation Districts and NACD Auxiliary, who invited students from kindergarten through 12th grade to showcase their artwork in support of national conservation efforts. 

The contest theme, “One Water,” invites participants to examine watersheds – an area of land that channels rainfall and snowmelt to creeks, streams, and rivers, eventually leading to outflow points such as reservoirs, bays, and the ocean. Thus, those bodies of water are connected, so every drop that falls becomes part of “One Water.”

  • This year’s winners are:
    1st place in the 10-12 grade category, Elayne Ernst, from Churchill County High School winning $100. Elayne also earned 2nd place in the same category in the state competition, winning $30. 
  • 2nd place in the 10-12 grade category, Nateya Wiggins, from Churchill County High School winning $50.
  • 1st place in the 7-9 grade category, Haley Bowman (Flick), from Oasis Academy, winning $100.00.
  • 1st place in the 2-3 grade category, Zane Conway from Churchill County School District – Title VI Program, winning $100.

A cost analysis should be created so we can see what is reasonable cost for that pasture. 3.the tenants of that pasture Have not changed for years .I think they need to open it up for all eligible applicants in Churchill County!Comment publication date: 4/23/26, 9:25 AMComment source: Ranchers Push Back as NDOW Nearly Doubles Carson Pasture Grazing FeesComment author: David KittleComment text: I praise the Lord that you are now in your heavenly home and no longer in pain.

We are deeply saddened by the loss of Sophie. We still remember her from your visit to Edmonton when Sophie was just a little girl. I can still see her standing on the sidewalk beside your car and waving madly with a big smile as if she’d always known us and we were now best friends. We are so thankful to know a deep faith runs through your family and you know that Sophie is freed from her pain and is at home with her Lord and Saviour. May God grant all of you the peace and comfort that only God can give during this time of grief.Comment publication date: 4/20/26, 4:05 PMComment source: Sophia Katherine BehimerComment author: ThughesComment text: Thanks to all who came and stood up !
