On Wednesday, August 7, the Fallon Youth Club (FYC) and the City of Fallon hosted the MIT Spokes team during their cross-country bike trip. The eight-member team arrived in Fallon on Tuesday evening after biking from Austin. After biking in 100-degree temperatures, they rode to the Fallon Youth Club and were transported to the City Pool for showers and cleanup. FYC Executive Director Shannon Goodrick served meals to the team through Thursday while they gave STEAM presentations on Wednesday. This is the third year FYC has hosted the MIT Spokes, a non-profit, student-run initiative from MIT aimed at rethinking Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math (STEAM) education.

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.
