The Fernley Community Foundation celebrated major milestones at its annual Membership Dinner on Jan. 23, where about 70 attendees gathered to honor donors and unveil naming rights for three classrooms inside the Community Response and Resource Center building.

The naming rights recognized $50,000 contributions toward the construction and operation of the building by Nick & Joy Hidek in memory of Joy Hidek; the Wagner Family in memory of Diana Wagner; and the Fernley Community Foundation.

The Foundation also recognized cumulative giving from supporters over the years, with several donors approaching $5,000 in lifetime contributions. Alan LaVoie was recognized as the organization’s leading individual donor, having contributed more than $15,000.

The CRRC opened last August and is being operated by the Boys & Girls Club of Truckee Meadows Serving Fernley.

Why does the County have to pay the whole bill?
