Mystery Solved The Venue Launches in the Old Waterhole.

Mystery Solved The Venue Launches in the Old Waterhole.
L-R: Ava Case, Fallon Chamber of Commerce Manager, Greyson Fain, Rick Fain, Co-owners Erik and Whytnee Fain, Niki and Bill Mayer, Cindy McGarrah Second Row: Tom and Faith, Valerie and Scott Johnston Fallon Chamber Ambassadors, Willow and Tyler Carey, Judy Norcutt, Michelle Baysinger Back Row: Ester, BeAnn and Rick Lattin

For anyone wondering what caused the parking lot at the old Waterhole Restaurant—most recently Ana’s Café—to overflow last Friday night, wonder no more. The Venue, Fallon’s newest private event space is co-owned by Niki Mayer and Erik and Whytnee Fain, who bring over 40 years of combined experience from operating Troy's Double Shot Event Bar & Catering, a mobile bar and catering service. The business name pays tribute to Niki's parents, Troy and DeeDee Howell, who owned the original Troy's Double Shot Bar, which has served countless local venues over the years.

The Venue, who recently celebrated their ribbon cutting, is not just an eatery but also a versatile space for hosting events of all kinds. It can accommodate gatherings ranging from intimate baby showers to weddings with up to 220 guests. An upcoming wedding will feature a ceremony in one room followed by celebrations throughout the building. The Venue, located at 111 South Allen Road, also includes a patio area for guests to enjoy and a stage for music and entertainment.

With a full kitchen, The Venue can cater events with a range of options—from prime rib and salmon to more casual choices like a taco bar.

In collaboration with Canvas Creations NV and Delea Johnson, owner of Memory Lane Mercantile, The Venue will host a Paint Night event, with the date and time to be announced. The Venue will open only for special occasions, with the first event set for Cinco de Mayo, featuring specialty drinks and a taco bar.

For more information or to book an event, contact The Venue Troy's Double Shot Bar & Catering at 775-427-4076 or [email protected].

The memories remain of a soft-spoken, seemingly unassuming but determined individual who absolutely knew what path she wanted to take in life, and followed it. Her instinctive reactions, which highlighted her steadfast level of love and caring for her family, friends and all living things found in nature, hold lessons for us all. An unexpected splash of her self-deprecating humor, coupled with uncanny timing, will always bring a smile. For me, Marie lives on in the sighting of a Black-crowned night heron in the tules, the bloom of a beautiful spring flower and, most poetically, in the struggle of wildlife photographers handling their very large camera lenses.

Her dad Ted was my dad's brother. I never knew Ted or Betty, but I wish I did. I am 73 and live in IL. I am building my family tree and see where Betty has fit in. Blessings to you Curt and family.
