RESOLUTION 2024R-005
THE TOWN OF GARDNERVILLE’S
INVOCATION POLICY
TOWN BOARD OF GARDNERVILLE’S
INVOCATION POLICY The Town Board
of Gardnerville makes it a policy to
invite members of the clergy, religious
representatives and representatives of other
benevolent organizations in Gardnerville
and Douglas County to voluntarily offer an
invocation before the beginning of its regular
and special meetings at which the Board may
take action, for the benefit, blessing, wisdom
and guidance of the Board. Any leader of a
religious congregation or representative of a
benevolent organization with an established
presence in the local community, any chaplain
for one of the local fire department, law
enforcement agency or military units, are
eligible to offer this important service at an
upcoming meeting of the Board*
Any organization or individual willing to assist
the Board in this regard, please send a written
request at your earliest convenience to the
Town of Gardnerville at 1407 Hwy. 395,
Gardnerville, Nevada. Persons delivering the
invocation are scheduled on a first-come,
first-serve basis. The dates of the Board’s
scheduled regular meetings for the upcoming
year are established by policy and are listed
on the Boards website. Special meetings,
when called, will be posted on the Board’s
website as soon as the Board determines
to conduct a special meeting. If you have a
preference among the dates, please state that
request in your written request.
This opportunity is voluntary, and you are free
to offer the invocation according to the dictates
of your own conscience. To maintain a spirit of
respect and ecumenism, the Board requests
only that the opportunity not be exploited as
an effort to convert others to the particular faith
of the invocation speaker, nor to disparage
any faith or belief different than that of the
invocation speaker, nor to disparage any
person by name or by inference.
