We have a service opportunity coming up! We plan to do some clean-up work at property adjacent to the Elgin School that has been aquired by State Parks! We have some big plans for the space, but first we need to remove trash and debris. We will have a roll off dumpster down there and will be putting anything and everything into that dumpster. We will have water and the tools needed, you just need to bring your bubbly personality and maybe some gloves if you have them! 9 AM - 12 PM at the schoolhouse. We will have water and a light lunch!

We had some funding issues with our movie scheduling this year. Lucky for us the Lincoln Community Coalition of Nevada came to the rescue and will be providing the funding for our family movie nights this summer! Here is the schedule! We will be sharing more as the time for each movie gets closer, but our overall thinking was to show a movie depicting time periods in American history given that we turn 250 this year. There is some comedy and some serious movies in there, hopefully enough range to get you all out to eat some popcorn!

We have been fortunate that students from come out on occasion and do service projects. This last weekend we were able to install an access ramp for a trail that solves a confusing crossing. It has been a needed project for a while and we are grateful to service oriented students!

Staff from Kershaw help to run this camp every year!

It's that time of year again! We are now accepting applications for the the 2026 Nevada Youth Range Camp! Range Camp is open to high school students who are interested in spending a fun and educational week camped out on Nevada rangelands learning about rangeland and resource management. Students study a variety of topics and are taught by professionals from across the state. If you know of a high school student who may be interested in rangelands and natural resources management, you can find more information, including the application, on our website https://nevada.rangelands.org/

In addition, Nevada Division of Forestry hosts a scholarship program to assist in covering camp tuition. Find out more at https://forestry.nv.gov/happening-now/news/Nevada-Youth-Range-Camp

There is the land that I love the best,
Fairer than all I can see.
Right in the heart of the golden west
Home means Nevada to me.
