Genoa, Nev. — A plan to shift sixth-graders from Zephyr Cove Elementary to Whittell High schools was approved by the Douglas County School Board on Tuesday night. Sixth-graders have been at the middle schools in the Valley for a while. There are 17 students who will shift schools next fall.
Genoans are meeting for the first time in their newly renovated town hall 5:30 p.m. today. On the agenda is an update on Candy Dance and the fate of the town’s historic streetlights. There is no streaming, so if you want to know, you have to go.
The Carson Valley Days Carnival will be firing up today for families of special needs children. Today is the deadline for purchasing $30 pre-sale tickets at Raley’s, Accolades and Nevada State Bank, if they still have them.
You have to go to the carnival in Lampe Park on Thursday to get buddy night 2-for-1 tickets. I’ll have a schedule for Carson Valley Days out in Thursday’s edition.
We’re forecast to hit the bottom of the temperature trough today with a high of 69 degrees and a low of 30 degrees overnight. Keep in mind that forecast is for Minden down by the river. Your results may vary.
There’s another lake wind advisory 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. today with the south wind 15-20 mph gusting to 30 mph under sunny skies.
