"Winterflix," a play on the popular Netflix streaming service, was the theme this year at the 2019 Winterfest week at CHS with dress-up days and night-time activities all week long. Some of the events included the Netflix show, "Stranger Things," a Twins Day, "Riverdale,""The Office," and even the ever popular once-a-month Dress for Success competition.

Other events included 80s trivia, a movie night, Kahoot trivia, Central Perk with coffee and hot chocolate, waste basket basketball, bowling, and the crowning of the Royal Court at the home basketball game against Damonte Ranch where the senior class Winterfest Queen and King were announced.

Another exciting factor with Winterfest this year is how a female and male candidate from each of the other three classes were also announced. Female freshman candidates this year were Angelica Germain-Sanchez, Jennifer Acosta, and Ginger Cullom with the male candidates were Lukas Taggart, Cameron Boeckman, and Max Wood, and the 2019 Winterfest Queen and King of the freshman class were Jennifer Acosta and Max Wood.

Female sophomore candidates were Haylee Solorio, Karen Beglin, and Cady Garrett with the boys being Walker MacKenzie, Isaac Harrison, and Chase Wixon, and the 2019 Winterfest Queen and King of the sophomore class being Karen Beglin and Chase Wixon.

Female junior candidates were Stefanie Schmidt, Pru Knox, and Chloe Walt, and the males were Justin Stevens, Roberto Cazares, and Adrian Lopez-Meraz, with the 2019 Winterfest Queen and King of the junior class being Stefanie Schmidt and Justin Stevens.

The senior class female candidates were Cassidy Painter, Valeria Martinez, Jessica Taylor, Maddison Matthew, Naralie Medrano, and Emily Gentile with the male candidates being Evan Cherpeski, Josh Ingram, Cole Ashton, Gabe Covington, Leo Rodriguez, and Evan Byassee, with the 2019 Queen and King of the senior class being Valerie Martinez and Leo Rodriguez.

Finally, a big congratulations also goes out to CHS Dress for Success challenge winners, sophomore Mariah Dunham and teacher MaryAnne Weaver. Each winner receives a $10 gift certificate to Starbucks or Dutch Bros. This competition happens once a month, with students and staff voting on the best-dressed people in the school. This is just one more of the many exciting events happening this past week during Winterfest.

Senior Project Highlight

CHS Astronomy and Physics teacher James Bean is fortuitously connected with the Jack C. Davis Observatory at Western Nevada College, which allows for many of his students to make some type of astronomy their Senior Projects, a CHS graduation requirement.

Project RECON — Research and Education Collaborative Occultation Network — is where students are involved in tracking outer solar system bodies. CHS senior Ian Pettersen is the Lead Investigator in tracking Kuiper Belt Objects (KBOs) and TransNepunian Objects (TNO), and he is being assisted by Lab Associates Levi Hemmingway and Honors Physics sophomore Levi Woods, who is doing it for extra credit.

According to Bean, "Tonight the students were tracking TNO Centaur 14YY49; Centaurs are small Solar System bodies with distances between those of the outer planets, and they generally have unstable orbits because they cross or have crossed the orbits of one or more of the giant planets; almost all their orbits have lifetimes of only a few million years."

Centaurs, named after the mythological centaurs, a mixture of horse and human, are small solar system bodies with a semi-major axis between those of the outer planets, have unstable orbits because they have crossed one of the orbits of one or more of the giant planets, and this shortens their dynamic lifetimes, typically causing them to behave with characteristics of both asteroids and comets.

All of the observational data conducted by CHS astronomy students is then submitted to the University of Colorado and Southwest Research Institute for Analysis.

Tracking TNO 14YY49 and seeing photos of M42, Orion Nebula and Trapezium Stars may be seen by going to tnorecon.net/about-us/tonight. CHS would like to thank Dr. Tom Herring, Observatory Director, for the generous use of the Jack C. Davis Observatory.

Save The Kids Assembly

Superintendent Richard Stokes and the Carson City School District recently hosted three school assemblies for students with a focus of rising above social media’s negative influence on minds, hearts, and souls.

CHS 9th graders attended the Feb. 8 assembly in the Big Gym. Keynote Speaker Collin Kartchner is a social activist and youth advocate who started the movement. His goal is to speak to children, parents and educators across the country to spread awareness about social media’s impact on teen anxiety, depression and suicide.

The assembly, called #SaveTheKids, focused on internet safety, social media responsibility, anxiety and depression coping skills, and suicide awareness. The following day, Feb. 8, Kartchner described the assemblies as entertaining but also extremely informative.

"Be ready to laugh and learn how living IRL (in real life) beats a screen every time," he said. "Students will learn how excessive device use is preventing them from really connecting to those they love. They’ll also learn how to overcome these obstacles and improve their overall mental health."

The locations and times of each assembly are detailed below. Carson Middle School, Friday, February 8, 8–9 a.m. Carson High School; Friday, February 8, 9:45–10:45 a.m. Eagle Valley Middle School; Friday, February 8, 1:30–2:30 p.m. Additional information may be found at savethekids.us.

Hands On Art History

CHS AP Art History students spent a day applying their learning by analyzing a wide variety of artworks at the Nevada Museum of Art in Reno. They began with private tours with guides who challenged them to analyze Anne Bingham’s photography exhibit, evaluating the role of women in the field of art as well as the feminine form as a subject of art.

From there, they moved on to analyze a series of murals reflecting changes in society in the U.S., such as diversity, innovation, and movement. Students spent time comparing original Audubon society prints with modern interpretations infused with statements about human interactions with nature.

Some of the artwork students enjoyed analyzing the most were works by contemporary Native American artists using Nevada themes regarding controversy surrounding Cave Rock and land usage.

A highlight of the trip was the hour spent in the art studio studying social commentary artwork and screen printing a compilation of symbols on a particular contemporary topic in society to make a piece of social commentary artwork.

Ava Covington reflected, "I really enjoyed taking the formal analysis skills I have learned in class with specific pieces of artwork and practicing trying it out of pieces of artwork new to me on my own."

As CHS students consider course options for next year, they are invited to think about taking this amazing course open to all grade levels.

Athletes of the Week

CHS Athletic Department’s Feb. 4-8 Athletes of the Week are Lucas Van Brow for Boys Varsity Basketball and Lilian Bouza for Girls Varsity Basketball. These athletes, and all students who participate in school functions through leadership, clubs, and sports deserve a high level of recognition and congratulations.

Student of the Week

Kyla Cox is the CHS Student of the Week, nominated by CHS Photography teacher Kara Ferrin.

According to Ferrin, "Kyla not only chose to take Photography Advance Studies as a senior, in lieu of an off period, she is also creating some of her best pieces." Ferrin added, "In most cases, after completing Photography III, there is no obligation for students to continue with the program because they have already earned their Career and Technical Education diplomas; however, those who choose to stay do so as a way to advance their studies, to work independently, and to better their photography skills, and Kyla is taking full advantage of the artistic process and really pushing herself toward creating meaningful pieces of art as well as to grow as a photographer."

Regarding the busy lives of seniors, Ferrin said, "Many times seniors have other obligations, like deciding on post-secondary plans, work takes more importance, and their art suffers, but Kyla is turning in the strongest work I have seen her create in all four years of her time with me; this speaks volumes to me because it shows true commitment to the art and craft of photography."

Congratulations to Kyla Cox on her outstanding commitment to her art and education.

Senior Spotlight

This week’s Senior in the Spotlight shines on Jennifer Artz. Jennifer currently carries a GPA of 4.40. She challenged herself by choosing Honors and Advanced Placement courses for all her core classes since sophomore year, she has taken Health Science classes all four years, and she will complete the Pathway this year as well. She has competed on the CHS Tennis team all four years and is an active member of Future Health Professionals (HOSA) since freshman year.

Additionally, Jennifer has competed in state and national tournaments for HOSA and currently acts as the reporter for the group. She is currently working with the police and fire departments to bring a program called "Stop the Bleed" to CHS that will bring training and awareness to teachers to better handle emergencies at school.

Outside of school, Jennifer keeps busy by working part-time at Starbucks. Much of Jennifer’s success can be attributed to her good work ethic and the fact that she has received perfect attendance awards twice during her high school years.

Her diligence will serve her well when she attends either UNR or WNC next year. Though she has not decided on a specific major, she would like to do something in the health sciences field. The faculty and staff of CHS wish Jennifer the very best in her future. Carson High is proud to call her one of its own.

Phil Brady is an English teacher at CHS.

An 18 year-old Carson City man was arrested Friday at 10:10 p.m. in the area of E. Nye Lane and Concord Drive for misdemeanor underage marijuana possession, a Carson City Sheriff's deputy reported.

According to the arrest report, a Sheriff's deputy on patrol observed two subjects walking westbound on E. Nye Lane. One of the subjects was recognized as having an active arrest warrant out for him.

Upon making contact with the subjects, the deputy requested that the warrant suspect approach. But the subject ran from the officer instead, the report said.

He continued running in spite of the deputy's commands to stop, and a foot chase ensued.

The other subject left, also age 18, the scene while the deputy was in pursuit of the warrant suspect. But he was later found hiding under a tow trailer. He complied with orders from the officer to come out, and he was detained in handcuffs, the report said.

A weapons pat-down recovered a pill bottle in the 18 year-old's front pocket. The subject told the deputy that there was marijuana in the container. He was arrested for marijuana possession by a person under the age of 21 and transported to the Carson City Jail for booking.

The other subject with the active warrant was unable to be located.

Bail: $737.

In other arrests:

— A 20 year-old Carson City man was arrested early Saturday morning at 12:05 a.m. in the area of Nevada and Eighth streets on a felony Nevada Parole and Probation Priority 5 Hold out of Lyon County, a Carson City Sheriff's deputy reported.

Deven Brawner was taken into custody following a traffic stop on a white sedan he was riding in with four other subjects.

According to the arrest report, the vehicle was pulled over because it failed to stop before the white line at a stop sign.

A Sheriff's deputy made contact with the driver, who provided all requested information. The four passengers, including Brawner, identified themselves.

All five subjects were run through Carson City Dispatch for wants and warrants checks, the report said, and the records check on Brawner showed an active Nevada Parole and Probation Priority 5 Hold for violating the terms of his release.

He was placed in handcuffs and detained. Brawner had originally given the officer the last name of Cheeks, but dispatch reported that this was an alias for Brawner. He had an identifying tattoo on his right arm that matched the suspect on the Priority 5 Hold, as well as the photo dispatch sent to the deputy.

Brawner was placed in custody and transported to the Carson City Jail for booking. No bail hold.

All information for the crime log (unless otherwise noted) comes from the arrest reports supplied by the Carson City Sheriff's Office, and is considered by law to be public information. All subjects are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. The policy of Carson Now is to name anyone who is arrested for a felony offense.

In its 34th year of honoring the nation’s best high school athletes, The Gatorade Company has announced Jared Marchegger of Sierra Lutheran High School as its 2018-19 Gatorade Nevada Boys Cross Country Runner of the Year.

Marchegger is the second Gatorade Nevada Boys Cross Country Runner of the Year to be chosen from Sierra Lutheran High School.

The award, which recognizes not only outstanding athletic excellence, but also high standards of academic achievement and exemplary character demonstrated on and off the field, distinguishes Marchegger as Nevada’s best high school boys cross country runner.

Now a finalist for the prestigious Gatorade National Boys Cross Country Runner of the Year award to be announced in February, Marchegger joins an elite alumni association of past state award-winners in 12 sports, including Lukas Verzbicas (2010-11, 2009-10 Carl Sandburg, Orland Park High School, Ill.), Donn Cabral (2007-08, Glastonbury High School, Glastonbury, Conn.) and Chris Derrick (2007-08, Neuqua Valley High School, Naperville, Ill.).

The 6-foot, 130-pound senior raced to his third consecutive Class 2A individual state championship this past season with a time of 16:51.5, leading the Falcons to a second-place finish as a team.

Marchegger also broke the tape at the Northern Region championships, the Fernley Roadhill Invitational, the North Tahoe Kiwanis Mountain Motivational Invitational and the Small School division of the Nike Cross Nationals Southwest Regional championships.

A talented musician, Marchegger has volunteered as an altar server at his church and has helped build and maintain bike trails in his community.

“Jared goes above and beyond what we ask him to do, with enthusiasm,” said Sierra Lutheran coach Steve Kubel. “At every practice he pushes himself to improve, and despite occasional injuries and his congenital scoliosis, he continues to be motivated.”

Marchegger has maintained a 3.81 GPA in the classroom. He recently signed a letter of intent to attend the University of Nevada, Reno, on a scholarship to compete on the Wolf Pack Men's Cross Country team, Sierra Lutheran High School reported.

"Jared Marchegger officially signed with UNR on Wednesday, February 6 with his family and coaches present," the school said in a press release. "Jared has been awarded a full-ride scholarship to join the inaugural UNR Cross Country Team. During his ceremony, Coaches Matt Pendola and Steven Kubel shared about Jared’s amazing character on and off the course. Pendola summed up Jared’s high school career in three words: 'grace, guts, and gratitude.'"

The Gatorade Player of the Year program annually recognizes one winner in the District of Columbia and each of the 50 states that sanction high school football, girls volleyball, boys and girls cross country, boys and girls basketball, boys and girls soccer, baseball, softball, and boys and girls track & field, and awards one National Player of the Year in each sport.

From the 12 national winners, one male and one female athlete are each named Gatorade High School Athlete of the Year. In all, 607 athletes are honored each year.

Marchegger joins Gatorade Nevada Boys Cross Country Runners of the Year William Fallini-Haas (2017-18, Spring Creek High School), Anthony Ocegueda (2016-17, Reed High School), Chase Wood (2015-16, Faith Lutheran High School), DaJour Braxton (2014-15, Centennial High School), and Kai Benedict (2013-14, McQueen High School) as athletes who have won the cross country award since its inception in 2007.

Sonoma Dog Park in Carson City resembled a land of giants Saturday afternoon as Great Danes romped with other canine cousins.

Rocko and Daisy, a pair of Danes who recently moved with their owners to Carson City from Reno, were not shy about mingling with other dogs and humans.

They seemed particularly taken by a game of tennis ball chase with their playmate Odin.

Rocko, age 5, stands about 42 inches at the shoulder, his owner said.

Chase Johnson had a tiger by the tail once, and now he’s chasing another one. After the Carson City product received his Bachelors of Science in Psychology, with a Minor in Linguistics last year from Louisiana State University, the LSU Tigers alum, and 2014 Sierra Lutheran High School graduate, is now pursuing study of a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology at LSU.

A notoriously difficult program where only 2 percent of applicants gain acceptance, Johnson has applied to the program at LSU with the goal of studying mood and anxiety disorders.

Since earning his undergraduate degree last year, Johnson has been working as a psychometrist at a private practice in Baton Rouge. His work administering psychological tests to patients has helped prepare him to become a Clinical Psychologist.

“I want to work with people who have severe anxiety or mood disorders and administer medications and various therapeutic techniques in hopes to improve their quality of life,” Johnson said. “My current job allows me to work hand in hand with practicing psychologists, so I can get hands-on experience working with patients and seeing what the “doctor life” is all about.”

A physician’s life may pale in comparison to the rich campus life experience that Johnson enjoyed as an undergraduate, where, among other pursuits, he played saxophone in the highly regarded LSU marching band.

“I was offered a position after sending in an audition tape the spring of my senior year of high school,” Johnson recalled. “I had originally heard about the band after they won ESPN’s Battle of the Bands a few years prior.

“I always knew I wanted to pursue a graduate degree so going to a large, public, state school was appealing to give me an opportunity to really experience “college life” before buckling down on my education.”

And much like the rarified company he’s aspiring to join professionally, the company Johnson kept with the LSU marching band was equally unique.

“The LSU band is, without a doubt, one of the best in the country,” Johnson opined. “Throughout my career, especially the last two seasons, we frequently found ourselves “trending” on Facebook and Twitter and would find tweets sent to us from celebrities across the country.

“No amount of warning or preparation can truly get your ready for coming onto the field with 103,321 people staring directly at you. It is an experience like none other and really makes you feel like a rockstar.”

But playing at football games was not Johnson’s only music gig while at LSU. He also played in the pep band for basketball games, volleyball matches, and gymnastic meets. And it was during a road trip with the women’s basketball team to Waco, TX in the NCAA tournament that he had one of his most memorable experiences.

“While there we happened to stumble upon a dodgeball tournament happening on Baylor University’s campus,” Johnson reminisced. “We joined the tournament with four teams and brought in a trumpet.

“We played various LSU school songs and “cheered” for the other teams in the tournament. By the end, the fraternity that was hosting said that the LSU Band is welcome to any function on their campus and that we have a standing spot in their tournament should we ever come back again.”

Johnson’s commitment to music was balanced with his commitment to academics that saw him become a member of the prestigious Ronald E. McNair Scholars program during his junior year, something that also advanced his career aspiration.

The (Ronald E. McNair Scholars program) "is a research fellowship aimed at helping underrepresented minorities and first-generation college students pursue research during undergrad and graduate degrees,” Johnson explained. “It is a national fellowship that allowed me to work in various labs and on various projects ranging from Psycholinguistics to Healthy Aging and ADHD in College students.”

As he prepares for the next step in his journey, the Sierra Lutheran alum reflected on his secondary school roots and shared perspective on one’s high school years.

“High school is very important and should be treated as such,” Johnson counseled. “But no one will remember how your hair looked that one day, or that one time you gave a wrong answer in class. High school is a chance to envision the kind of person you want to become. College or your career is a chance to make it happen.”

Everyone should be so lucky to have a tiger by the tail once, not to mention possibly a second time.

Carol Beeson Cronenberger: November 7, 1937 to March 14, 2019. Born to Harold and Evelyn Beeson in Oroville, Calif., Carol spent her childhood in the hard scrabble lumber camp of Grays Flat in the Feather River Canyon and later in Marysville, where Harold continued his life’s work as a sawmill planer. The Beesons moved to Reno in 1951, where Carol graduated from Reno High School in 1955 and the University of Nevada, Reno in 1959.

In 1959, Carol married Gordon “Gordy” Cronenberger, and the two began their 59 year adventure together. While living in Eureka, California, they welcomed two daughters, Loni and Wendy. The Cronenbergers returned to the eastern Sierra and settled in Carson City in 1970, where Carol distinguished herself as a 1st grade teacher, receiving the “Light of the Education” award in 1988 and again in 1999. Carol retired in 1999 after teaching most of her career at Bordewich Bray Elementary School.

Carol often said, her “bags are always packed!” Whether short trips to visit family, or frequent ocean cruises, Carol loved to travel. She enjoyed the splendor of creation and watching people. In her later years, she regularly enjoyed her mornings at the pool, summer Saturdays at the farmers market, Sunday brunch, and visiting her daughters and their families.

Carol was always polite and considerate. She had a ready laugh and a very quick wit, usually at Gordy’s expense. Carol had a soft spot for animals of any kind, especially babies. She loved Carson City, and was delighted to make it her home for the past 49 years. Carol was a faithful and devoted wife, mom, and mother-in-law, and an extraordinary grandma. She was kind and gracious, and always a good neighbor.

Surrounded by family, Carol passed away peacefully in her home of 46 years. She is preceded in death by her parents, Harold (1979) and Evelyn Beeson (2000), and older sister Beverly Stenson (1997). Survivors include, husband Gordy Cronenberger of Carson City, daughter Loni (Cronenberger) and Rob Holley of Dayton, NV, daughter Wendy (Cronenberger) and Les Rispens of Belgrade, Montana, and grandchildren Daniel, Caleb and Anna Holley of Dayton, and Samantha and Kassidy Rispens of Montana. Surviving family also includes sister-in-law Patricia Chase, nephew Steve Chase, and nieces Karen Riley, Julie O’Leary, Peg Navarette and Jennifer Dankers.

A gathering of close friends and family will be held at the Cronenberger home on Tuesday, March 19 at 2:30 in the afternoon. In lieu of flowers, donations in memory of Carol Cronenberger may be made to the Alzheimer's Association at 639 Isbell Rd, Ste 240, Reno, NV 89509. Our sincere gratitude to St Mary’s Hospice program for their incredible support and caring staff.

About the Brewery Arts Center The mission of the Brewery Arts Center is to enrich the quality of life by cultivating arts and culture for all. Founded in 1975, by a group of artists yearning for a space of their own, these pioneers had a clear vision and spearheaded a grassroots effort and raised $300,000 to purchase the Historic Carson Brewing Building and turn it into a community gathering space for artists. They then proceeded to build an annex for a gallery, art classroom, a black box theater and the Brewery Arts Center (BAC) a Nevada non-profit organization was born. In 2000, the organization purchased the St. Teresa Catholic Church building and converted it into a 250 seat Performance hall and in 2015 was able to close the road to traffic in between the two buildings to create a two city block arts campus complete with facilities for visual arts, theatrical arts, dance and music, and outdoor art to include a Harmony Sculpture Park, two murals, rotating sculptures and in the summer months, an outdoor amphitheater.

The Change Companies has come on board as this year’s title sponsor. The Brewery Arts Center is proud to be aligned with such an important company comprised of a team full of warm, hard- working and talented individuals, driven by their shared mission of promoting positive behavior change. It’s a perfect fit for this series.

Opener: King Whistler

June 29th: Jordan T
Jordan T’s musical career began in Maui, where he had formed a local band and was soon given the call to play guitar for touring reggae bands like Maoli and Katchafire. With the help of fans, Jordan T was able to fund his debut album “Bridges with the Vibes” in 2017. With a surplus he and his fans raised, Jordan T contacted Habitat for Humanity in Nicaragua and aided in building houses for those in need. Jordan’s popularity is steadily growing—with over 2.5 million streams on Spotify alone—and he has shared the stage with many other musicians in reggae festivals and concerts all across the globe. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NNAlDkX1_gk
Opener: Stone Wood

July 6th Double Header: The Novelists (7pm) & Kara Grainger (8:30pm)
The Novelists’ song “With Drawl” won Reno Gazette Journals’ Best Local Song of 2018 as they continue the climb in popularity in the U.S. They are a touring folk/pop band whose sound is built around multiple lead singers, four-part harmonies, and powerful storytelling through lyrics; their music aims to immerse the listener into vivid scenes—maybe of an elderly couple on a seventeenth-floor balcony or of two teens unknowingly parked at a murder scene. The Novelists’ ear-pleasing sound and cliffhanger storytelling reflects their influence from bands, like the Decembrists, and from writers, like Hemmingway. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=htBAKnzPVZQ

Kara Grainger’s latest release “Living With Your Ghost”, which was released through Station House Records reached no. 3 on the Billboard Blues album charts and no. 89 on the Americana chart. The album was recorded in Austin Texas and co-produced by Anders Osborne
Her music career began in a small suburban town of Sydney Australia and since then has taken her on an incredible journey throughout the globe. Combining tasteful blues and slide guitar, soulful vocals and a heartfelt approach to songwriting, Kara's truly unique sound will leave you uplifted, inspired and always wanting more.

July 13th: The Mother Hips
In 1990, Tim Bluhm and Greg Loiacono of the Mother Hips found themselves living in the same house, teaching one another guitar chords. In 1993, they released their debut album, and twenty-five years later, in 2018, The Mother Hips releases their most ambitions album: “Chorus.” they showed that the longstanding rock band could still easily create new, unconventional, and meaningful music for their listeners. The guitarist and vocalist for the band, Tim Bluhm, explains that making music meaningful is important to him: “I'm trying to make music that has a spiritual aspect…an emotional experience that you might not even know is happening because it's surrounded by a loud rock band.”

July 20th: Terrance Simien and the Zydeco Experience (Grammy Winner)
Terrance Simien has been the original instrument, the voice, to both express shared human emotions and bring his audiences of a multicultural tour of the world; he has created a blend of “New Orleans-funk-reggae-flavored-world-blues-American-zydeco roots music,” that will move an audience to start grooving along to new, innovative sounds grounded in a Creole tradition. In 1983, eighteen-year-old Simien started touring and by age twenty was performing along siege Fats Domino and Sarah Vaugh. The influence of Simien and his band’s work created the “Best Zydeco or Cajun Music Album” category, during the 2007 Grammys, and he won that same award during the 2008 Grammy Awards.

Opener: Darabello ft. Louisa Lopez

July 27th Double Header: Josh Hoyer and Soul Colossal (7pm) & Remember Jones (8:30pm)
Josh Hoyer and Soul Colossal formed, in 2012, in the blues-town of Lincoln, Nebraska. The five-piece band had been inspired by sounds of Motown, Stax, Muscle Shoals, New Orleans, Philadelphia, and San Francisco; they are “music for the people, by the people,” and they do whatever they can to get a crowd dancing to forget all about their own troubles. Their musical roots and inspirations can be heard alongside their more-contemporary sound as they charge into the modern era of soul music. In January 2019, Josh Hoyer and Soul Colossal released their fourth studio album: “Do It Now.”

Back by popular demand…Remember Jones is a one-of-a-kind soul/pop singer, storyteller and bandleader with a throwback vibe and authentic energy. Collaboratively supported by a large ensemble of musicians (featuring female backing vocalists, a horn section, and a six-piece rhythm section), the band has played to countless packed and sold-out ballrooms, clubs and theaters throughout the country.

August 3rd: Flor De Toloache (Grammy Winner)
Flor de Toloache have taken the city by storm and made New York City history as the “First and Only All-Woman Mariachi Group.” Their unique flavor and sound is a result of working to preserve old traditions of Mariachi while adding original flare influenced from diverse cultural backgrounds from all over the globe. Sine their formation in 2008, Flor De Toloache has worked with and opened for many popular musicians (like the Black Keys, Café Tacvba, and Chicano Batman), received Latin Grammy nomination for “Best Ranchero/Mariachi Album” in 2015, and won that award in 2017 with their album “Las Caras Lindas.” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F01p5Cf2hEA
Opener: Drinking with Clowns

August 10th: Dead Winter Carpenters
The Dead Winter Carpenters come from North Lake Tahoe, California and have created a reputation for “pouring their heart and soul” out on the stage. They are trying to redefine string music for a youthful generation of listeners; their progressive nature and sound comes from use of plugged and unplugged instruments, a blending of refined musical ability and ‘letting it all hang out,’ with a strong sense of ambition. They are reminiscent of genre-benders like Jack White, Chris Thile and Sam Bush and, like these artists, connect with their fans in ways that sell out their show. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KFvOMErf8Tc&list=RDEMgXvNSyL819najOoxQZL...
Opener: Spike McGuire

August 17th: Wicked Tinkers
Since 1995, the Wicked Tinkers have been playing ancient rhythms and forgotten sounds—things might have heard hundreds of years ago at a Scottish wedding or Highland riding party—but have reimagined the music for the twenty-first century. The aim to create a sound that is both “ancient and hauntingly familiar” with use of bagpipes, tribal drums, didgeridoos, and Bronze-Age Irish horns paired with a modern, rock-and-roll energy; their music will transport you back in time and get an audience of their feet with a raw, primal, and exciting sound.

Opener: Ciana

August 24: The Brevet
The Brevet can be traced back to front man Aric Chase Damm’s college days where he realized he had a talent for writing scores to be used in student films. This lead to a licensing deal, tracks from the band’s albums would be used in film and television, and an every-growing popularity online. True to their roots, The Brevet create songs that are cinematic, full of catchy hooks, and blend the excitement of thunderous percussion, electric guitars, and some R&B swagger. Their latest albums, “LEGS,” embodies all of their trademark sounds and places them in a memorable tale of relentless optimism in the shadows of struggle and doubt.

Hello fellow anglers, what great time of year. The rivers have opened in California. Which, depending on the new regulation that is being decided on, may not close on November 15th.

As well as Alpine county, the lakes in Inyo and Mono Counties have opened and have been producing some beautiful fish, which I will share later in this report. It's hard to believe how fast the time goes.

A reminder to my fellow young anglers, on June 1st will be the annual Sawmill Pond Free Kids Fishing Day in South Lake Tahoe. There is no preregistration need to enter. The event will start at 8am and run until noon time. There will be plenty of volunteers on hand from the Optimist Club and the Tahoe Fly Fishing Outfitters of South Lake Tahoe. For more information you can stop by or call Tahoe Fly Fishing Outfitters at 530-541-8208.

On that same weekend, June 1st and 2nd will be the Lampe Park Free Kids Fishing Day. Kids need to pre-register for this event for the allotted time slots. They are always looking for new sponsors and volunteers. For more information on sponsorship or donations call Steve Hamilton at 775-392-3579 or sctawhamilton@aol.com. Or you can contact the president of the 2019 Kids Fishing Derby, Samantha Calvillo at 775-508-8556.

Take a day and become a volunteer for either event, the rewards will last you a life time. I will be on hand at both events to help in what ever way I am needed. Now for your area fishing report.

LAKE TAHOE: Excellent Mackinaw Fishing! We have been getting limits of Mackinaw Lake Trout all week, from 1 to 15 pounds. Depths have ranged from 60, 100, 150, 200, and 250 feet depending on the areas fished on the lake. Cal Neva Point, Tahoe City Shelf, Sugar Pine Point, Ski Run Mound, Tahoe Keys Shelf, and Camp Richardson Shelf are all stacked and loaded with Lake Trout. Surface water temperatures range from 46 to 48 depending on areas as well. Bounce the bottom periodically as well. Large fat minnows trailed behind dodgers or flashers is highly effective. Change speeds every now and then to initiate a strike to following fish. We have been getting several browns and rainbows (from 2 to 5 pounds) on occasion with the mackinaw in 60 to 150 feet as well. Cave Rock boat launch is now open 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. Law Enforcement is out on the water and they are checking for boats on the water for safely requirements so be ready. Air temperatures are forecast-ed from lows of 30 degrees to highs of 55 to 68 degrees the next ten days. The lake is full and the launches are in great shape. Cheers! Captain Gene St. Denis Blue Ribbon Fishing Charters (530) 544-6552

SILVER LAKE: The lake is starting to thaw, but has plenty of snow all around the lake still.

CAPLES LAKE: The lake still has plenty of ice on it. As I spoke with Joe Voss last week, they still had 3-4 feet of snow in the parking area. They are trying to get the resort open for Memorial weekend, but the docks may not go in until June. I will keep you updated.

RED LAKE: The lake has started to thaw, the middle of the lake had some blue water tint to it. There was still a lot of snow around the edges of the lake. The parking area has been cleared and the CDFW are planing to plant some non-Heenan cutthroat trout in it very soon.

BLUE LAKES: Road closed at the 1st gate. I would guess the lake this year will open just before the 4th of July. Again, I will keep you posted.

EAST CARSON RIVER CALIFORNIA SIDE: The water level has been fluctuating with the warming temps over the last few weeks. It has cleared a little and has been clearing up with a green tint to it. Alpine County has scheduled to plant heavily over the next couple of weeks with good sized rainbow trout. I would recommend to check with the Alpine County Chamber of Commerce to get more information on the tagged fish contest that will be held this month. They can be reached at 530-694-2475.

WEST FORK CARSON RIVER CALIFORNIA SIDE: The river is running very fast from Sorensons to Woodfords bridge. The area from Blue Lakes road to Sorensons is looking very good. Alpine County has scheduled a heavy plant of good sized rainbows over the next couple of weeks. As a note, the rivers usually gets 1800 lbs planted between them. When I say a heavy plant, I think we can expect to see almost 4000 lbs planted over the next couple weeks. For more information, stop by the Creekside Lodge in Markleeville.

MARKLEEVILLE CREEK: The river is high but running a little calmer and clearer in the morning time. The CDFW is schedule to plant next week along with Alpine County.

WOLFE CREEK: The gate is close and the river is running very fast. I would recommend to stay away until they can check the road for mudslides and debris.

SILVER CREEK: Running high and sometimes getting very cloudy. I would recommend to fish the Carson until the runoffs have settled down.

INDIAN CREEK RESERVOIR: The water level is up and the weeds are starting to show up. Renee and I fished up there last week for a couple hours. We got plenty of bites and caught one fish, I should say, Renee caught the one fish. Dave Cortez from Carson fished by the campground and caught a nice 4-5 pound rainbow. The CDFW has a plant scheduled for next week of catchable sized rainbows. We saw a couple anglers next to us that caught a nice 2 lb rainbow using a night crawler. We were using various colors of powerbait. The dirt road is open and clear. The campground is now open for the season. For more information stop by the Creekside Lodge.

BRIDGEPORT RESERVOIR: Renee and I joined Tom and Shelly Blotter for the opener this year. We stayed at the Bridgeport Reservoir Marina and Campground. This was our first time staying at the campground. We usually camp somewhere on the shore line. They offer tent camping on the lake as well as pull through RV spots with full hook ups. The marina offers boat launching and mooring as well as boat rentals. They have a well stocked store and primo fish cleaning station. The staff is well educate on the whereabouts and how to catch big fish. Tom and I trolled the lake for three days and caught and released over 50 good sized rainbows and browns, with the average fish in the 14 to 17 inch class. We also caught a few in the 2 to 5 lb class. Funny thing about the lake, you will find that most boat anglers head to the other side of the lake and fish off what is known as Rainbow Point. They anchor and fish with night crawlers or Powerbait and do very well. No special talent to fish this body of water. We had a great experience and have made plans to go back before the temperatures get unbearable. For more information on the Bridgeport Marina call them at 760-932-7001 and ask for Chase.

NEVADA FISH PLANT SCHEDULE: Kuenzli outponds, Mountain View Pond, Wilson Common Pond, Davis Creek, Marilyns Pond, Liberty Pond, Mitch Pond, Martin Slough, Baily Pond, Hinkson Slough.

One special note to travelers and campers: as we went through the Agriculture Station at the California state line, we were asked about more than just fruits and veggies. They asked about our firewood and its origin. I received a good education on why they inquired about our firewood. If you have wood with bark on it and is not seasoned (green), you could be transporting bark beetles and other uninvited guests that could devastate our forest lands. One another note, use only seasoned wood that has the bark removed, or you can purchase from a local store and just keep the receipt.

Good luck on your next fishing adventure. I hope to see you on the waters. If you get a picture of your catch, send it to editor@recordcourier.com. Good fishin' and tight lines.

The weather is changing at Carson High School and so are the types of clothing some students are wearing. CHS Dean Sharon Hallinan sent an email out to all CHS teachers about this weather changing challenge. Hallinan told teachers to “please remind students of the Dress Code; highlight the fact that bare midriffs and holey jeans, which violate the ‘Fingertip Rule’, are not allowed.”

Hallinan went on to say, “The Fingertip Rule, as you know, is a general guideline for students to determine if their skirts, dresses, shorts or holey jeans are inappropriate, so if students stand and extend their arms along their sides, bare skin should not be showing above their extended fingertips, and if bare skin is showing, they are in violation of the CHS Dress Code.” If a student is breaking personal attire rules at CHS, there will be consequences.

Hallinan said to teachers, “If you have a student who is in violation of this rule, please write them up with a pink Dress Code Violation slip, and send them to the office.” The purpose of the dress code is to promote a respectful learning environment free from distractions beginning on the first day of school and continuing to the final day, a mere 17 class days away.

Clothing must be modest, and must not promote or glorify illegal, promiscuous, gang-related or racially-biased slogans or behaviors; however, due to the warm weather, some of this is being seen. And what have teachers been seeing lately: Bare skin and undergarments for the most part, pajamas, slippers, blouses and shirts showing cleavage, skin visible at midriff, halter-tops, backless shirts, sleeveless shirts and strapless garments, shirts without sleeves and not covering the shoulders, hats, caps, hoods, bandanas, scarves, sunglasses, gloves and other head coverings.

Shoes must be worn at all times too, but students have been wearing flip-flops. Another often seen distraction are the pants which ‘barely’ cover the skin around the waste and are not properly fitted, not to mention the baggy pants as well as excessively tight pants. Finally, rips or tears in pants, shorts, and leggings are also on the rise lately. It is amazing how quickly the CHS Dress Code is broken when the clouds break and the sun comes shining through. Visit carsonhigh.com for more information on student dress code.

THEY REFUSED TO LOSE
The CHS wrestling team had one heck of a year, and this one with a plot twist. For the first time, a female wrestler made it through an entire season. This amazing girl, Kiana Gallaher, is a freshman. Gallagher, wrestling since her eighth grade year, had originally joined because, “It just sounded like an interesting thing to do.” Being the only girl on the team was hard at times as she felt like she had to constantly prove herself. “I feel like there’s more pressure put on me as a girl wrestler to be better because girls are supposed to be weak in a way,” Gallaher said.

She wanted to quit a couple of times, but she pushed through till the end. With all the discrimination against female wrestlers, CHS’s team did not treat Gallaher any different because of her gender. “Everyone was treated as a wrestler,” said junior team member David Remer.

Even though Gallaher had fun, she plans on managing for the wrestling team rather than being on it next year. Gallaher had the best time pushing past the stereotypes against female wrestlers, and said, “It was empowering, but at the same time it was a lot of work to be on the wrestling team.” Gallaher said, “There were times where I would almost win a match, but I was not quite there.” Her teammates did not have any complaints to having a girl on the team either. “She was really cool, very supportive, and I don’t think she missed a single practice,” Remer commented.

Gallaher was not the only one having a hard time. Remer worked hard this season too, but he had a couple of bumps in the road. Remer, who needed to lose 14 pounds for a match, tried hard to lose the weight; eventually, he was able to push through and went to the match that week. During the match he was winning at first, but because of his low energy levels he ultimately lost.

He has no memory of the match, making it easier for Remer to put it behind him and push on through the season. In the end, Remer came out a champ winning second in State, his second regional title, fourth at another tournament, and he claimed the title of Highest Ranking Carson Wrestler. “It felt amazing, like all my hard work started paying off, which was nice to finally see that it was all worth it,” Remer said.

Overall, the team did great winning several medals for CHS’ trophy case. CHS senior Cole Ashton had a victory that gave Carson the league title for the tenth year in a row, and junior Alex Wells, similar to Remer, placed third at regionals for the second time and went to State. With overall success for the entire team, the wrestlers are already looking forward to next season. — Lindsay Chowanski

OUT OF THE GOODNESS OF HIS HEART
The library book carts bring a pop of color to the CHS Library thanks to sophomore student Nathan Reynolds. According to CHS Librarian Ananda Campbell, “Nathan is restoring a 1993 Jeep Wrangler and saw the drab book carts as an opportunity to practice with his automotive spray paint gun, so he used industrial paint for long lasting color and durability.”

The idea, Campbell said, came when “he heard me talking about wanting to brighten the library and an idea about painting carts, but I didn't know how, so Nathan offered to do it, so he could practice using his spray gun; I bought the paint, he took the carts home every few weekends over the last few months, just finished the last one, and they look beautiful.” Nathan Reynolds is now painting his jeep, and according to Campbell, “He's got mad paint skills; thanks Nathan for brightening our day.”

GNCU CELEBRATES NATIONAL CREDIT UNION YOUTH MONTH
Congratulations to Makayla Hapgood and Saeed Mobaligh as each won a $50 Visa gift card in GNCU’s National Credit Union Youth Month contest held at the CHS branch during April in celebration of National Credit Union Youth Month. The contest was open to all CHS students. The official theme for the 2019 National Credit Union Youth Month was “The Future is Yours… Picture it! Save for it! Share it!”. This theme encourages young members to look forward to their futures, picture their goals, and learn how to save their money to chase their dreams. “It’s been proven that when we acknowledge and record our goals for the future, they’re more likely to come true” said Michelle Kamke, marketing projects manager at CUNA. “By encouraging your youngest members to get into this habit, you’re fostering their ability to save for the future they dream of.”

HIGH ALTITUDE BALLOONS TO LAUNCH
Collin Belnap, CHS teacher of Intro to Engineering and Principles of Engineering, as well as Project Lead the Way said, “My Principles of Engineering classes are designing ‘Payloads’ that will be launched via High Altitude Balloon sometime around the middle of May.

The High Altitude Balloon project is a collaboration between Northwest Regional Professional Development Program, CHS, and the Engineering Department at UNR. The project teaches students the fundamentals of engineering design and allows them to create experiments that will take place at altitudes in excess of 75,000 feet. Because the project is dependent on favorable wind and weather patterns, the exact date of the launch is not yet determined.

All of CHS has an opportunity to be involved in this project. One of the payloads is dedicated to carrying hopes and dreams for the future to near space and then releasing them back to Earth. These ‘High Hopes’ are printed on bio-degradable paper and infused with flower seeds, so they may grow to become flowers this summer.

Everyone in Carson City may submit their personal ‘High Hopes’ to be printed and sent up by going to bit.ly/2vgRIKl. Belnap said, “I encourage everyone to submit three different ‘High Hopes’, a personal hope, a hope for a person they know, and a hope for the planet and humankind.” The balloon will carry a payload of cutting edge experiments designed by Belnap's brilliant future engineers.

MOB THE HALLS AND DRESS FOR SUCCESS
May 9, teachers and students joined the Mob the Halls and Dress for Success challenge. From 7:15 to 7:35 a.m., teachers stationed themselves at school entrances and welcomed students as they walked in. Frowns turned to smiles, and the good mood of the day began. It was also the time for the monthly Dress for Success Challenge where students, and teachers, busted out their nice threads and dressed to impress. This month’s Dress for Success winners are CHS Photography teacher Kara Ferrin and CHS student Elias Palumbo. Each wins a gift card to Dutch Bros. There will be one more chance to win this year as Dress for Success will be held one last time May 22.

ATHLETES OF THE WEEK
CHS Athletic Department’s May 6 through 10 Athletes of the Week are Zander Smokey for Boys Varsity Golf and Jailene Salciedo for Girls Varsity Softball. These athletes, and all students who participate in school functions through leadership, clubs, and sports deserve a high level of recognition and congratulations.

STUDENT OF THE WEEK
The CHS Student of the Week is Flor Aguilar. Nominated by her CHS History teacher Will Houk, he said, “She has been a hard worker in my class all year long and is also taking the EDU 110 class with Cheryl Macy; they are doing volunteer hours in a classroom at the elementary level and when she comes back from doing that she always tells me stories about the kids and how hard it is to reign them all in.” Houk said, “Flor is thinking about becoming a teacher, and when she goes to college, she will be a first generation college student; it just warms my heart to see her finding something she enjoys and could turn into a future career.” Congratulations to Flor Aguilar. 

SENIOR SPOTLIGHT
CHS is pleased to recognize Gryphon Matthies as this week’s Senior in the Spotlight. Gryphon has a 4.14 GPA and is finishing his high school career with a busy schedule of three honors classes as well as Project Lead the Way Computer Integrated Manufacturing.

In addition to exceling academically, Gryphon is accomplished in many other areas. During high school, he played Baseball for two years, and the last two years he was on the Track and Field team. He will be going to Regionals this year as a member of the 4x800-meter relay.

Outside of school Gryphon loves to go hiking on his favorite trail; so far, it has been ‘C’ Hill. According to Gryphon, “It has a great view of Carson and the mountains around Tahoe.” Gryphon is planning on becoming a mechanical engineer, and he will be attending UNR to do just that. He is looking to work with TESLA or any other big manufacturer. Congratulations to Gryphon Matthies. CHS is very proud of his many accomplishments, and wishes him the best in the future.

A high-speed chase ended Tuesday in a pursuit that initially began in South Lake Tahoe and then ended in Sacramento, landing a known gang member, white supremacist wanted in Douglas County and El Dorado County behind bars.

It started May 13, 2018 when Christopher Wadstein was arrested in connection with 17 firearms stolen from a car in a hotel parking lot. Most of those weapons were recovered but not all of them. 30-year-old Wadstein went to jail and got out on bond. Then police learned he took off from El Dorado County.

Over the past year, South Lake Tahoe PD detectives learned Wadstein was bouncing around between North Dakota, Sacramento, and Douglas County, Nevada. Right now, he has outstanding warrants in Douglas County for assault with a deadly weapon, and in El Dorado County for theft and felon in possession of a firearm.

On May 21, SLTPD detectives got information from North Dakota investigators that Wadstein was in the Sacramento area to buy drugs and weapons to bring back to North Dakota.

SLTPD, along with the El Dorado County Sheriff’s Office, and the El Dorado County DA’s Office went to the Sacramento area to try to find him. They found Wadstein headed towards South Lake Tahoe on Highway 50 near the Ponderosa exit. EDCSO tried to pull Wadstein over, but he took off and started driving into oncoming traffic. Deputies ended the pursuit because it was just too dangerous.

Not too long after that, Wadstein was found heading back to Sacramento, this time by California Highway Patrol. He led CHP on a high-speed pursuit along Highway 50. Sacramento County Sheriff’s helicopter and CHP’s fixed-wing aircraft helped track him.

It all came to an end when Wadstein’s truck caught fire. He jumped from the moving vehicle took off into a river area in South Sacramento. Wadstein was arrested with nearly a pound of methamphetamine on him. The Sacramento Metro Fire Department responded to the fire and could hear what is believed to be ammunition exploding as they put it out.

Wadstein is a long time South Lake Tahoe resident with arrests dating back to his teenage years. His previous convictions range from drugs and vandalism to kidnapping and weapons charges. He is also believed to be a skinhead white supremacist prison gang member.

South Lake Tahoe Investigators will be processing Wadstein’s vehicle later today for weapons and drugs. The South Lake Tahoe Police department would like to thank the El Dorado County DA”s office, The El Dorado County Sheriff’s office, The Sacramento County Sheriff’s office, Sacramento Police Department and the California Highway Patrol for assisting.

CARSON CITY — For the first time, Western Nevada College’s Jump Start graduating class has topped triple digits. WNC’s Jump Start graduation class includes 150 students, representing 12 high schools and two academies.

Anticipation of graduation and trepidation about the future are the thoughts running through the veins of the Carson High School Class of 2019 as they contemplate walking onto the football field as high school seniors and bouncing off the football field as CHS graduates looking forward to the new places and faces of tomorrow.

It is the last time CHS Seniors will ever attend their alma mater as students. Many graduates will endeavor to seek a higher education by moving up to the next academic level, going off to college, while some will attend a trade school, join the military, or simply begin employment in fields of their respective choices and abilities. Transcripts have already been sent out, and many soon-to-be graduates are already accepted and registered at the colleges they will attend across the nation and beyond.

CHS grads will be attending Western Nevada College, Truckee Meadows Community College, Sierra Nevada College at Lake Tahoe, University of Nevada, Reno, University of Nevada, Las Vegas, College of Southern Nevada, University of San Francisco, University of Southern California, Brigham Young University Provo and Idaho, St. John’s University, Swarthmore College, Utah State University, Southern Utah University, William Jessup University, Oregon Institute of Technology, Southwestern Oregon Community College, Belmont Abbey College, Boise State University, Academy of Art, Cal Poly Pomona, Arizona State University, Lindsey Wilson College, Azusa Pacific College, St. Olaf College, University of Massachusetts, Amherst, Vassar College, UC Davis, Westminster College, New York University, McGill University, The Institute for American Musical Theatre, and the Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marines.

All of Carson City is invited to attend this once-a-year event; it is exciting, inspiring, and emotional. Saturday, June 8, white and blue robes will walk around the CHS athletic track amidst cheers of congratulations. The ceremony begins at 9:00 a.m., but arriving earlier will be worth the sacrifice of sleep as both sides of the field fill up quickly. Seniors are encouraged to show up for one last photo opportunity the morning of graduation; all graduating seniors will gather together in the Big Gym, wearing their caps and gowns, by 7:45 a.m. Family, friends, and guests should be aware parking and seating is limited, so arrive early. Handicap seating and parking is also available closest to the field, best seats in the house.

ENGINEERING STUDENTS LAUNCH HIGH ALTITUDE BALLOON
Collin Belnap, CHS teacher of Introduction to Engineering and Principles of Engineering, as well as Project Lead the Way said, “I teach engineering at Carson High, and, as part of our class, we partnered with NWRPDP and UNR to launch a high altitude weather balloon May 28.” This project, recorded by GoPro cameras, launched a 3,000 gram balloon to heights above 75,000 feet.

This is considered ‘near space’, more than twice as high as commercial jet airliners. Belnap added, “My students designed payloads that will conduct experiments in materials stability and the effects of high altitude/low air pressure on common items; this payload will even contain marshmallows to see how much they expand.” Belnap went on to say, “Another payload is carrying a model rocket connected to an Arduino circuit card wired to an altimeter, and, once the altimeter senses the payload is above 75,000 feet, it triggers the rocket to launch.”

The rocket will have ‘High Hopes’ in its nose cone, wishes and thoughts for the future submitted by students and staff at CHS. They are printed on handmade paper infused with flower seeds, a bio-degradable paper which actually plants seeds as it decomposes. The entire payload is attached to a parachute system with GPS trackers and a HAM radio tracker in order to recover the payload. After reaching 75,000 feet, more than twice as high as a jet liner, and travelling dozens of miles away, the payload will land safely back on earth.

The launch will also be filmed by a $1,500 drone fitted with a camera and will be live streamed on YouTube by Belnap’s students, who will be controlling the drone. Because helium is very hard to get these days, the balloon was filled with hydrogen, and, fortunately, Belnap said “Our friends at the University of Nevada, Reno have all the fireproof suits, gloves, masks and grounding wires, no static necessary, so they filled the balloon while I was in the classroom stringing the rocket payload since the students had re-designed and built it; we filled early because we knew it might get a bit windy, and it did, but it is easier to have the balloon filled and tethered than to try and fill in the wind.”

The following students have been involved in this project and deserve all of the credit for the successful launch: Danny Arroyo Santoyo, Juan Brena Gutierrez, Kyle Brune, Ryan Cooley, Jacob Crossman, John Estrada-Rodriguez, Cash Farnworth, Matthew Gantan, Kyle Holloway, Manuel Hoyos Velazquez, Sarah Jackson, Sebastian Krueger, Nevan McIlwee, Jacobey Nord, Justin Nussbaumer, Guillermo Perez Roque, Nathan Reynolds, Casanova Segura, Chase Waldroop, Matthew Walker, Nicolas Baggio, William Breeding, Ashton Cook, Ismael Diaz Venegas, Caleb Grim, Logan Grime, Isaac Harrison, Jeremy Heaton, Andrew Ingram, Amberlee Ketten, Jonathan Laplante, Isaac Nelson, William Ore, Nicole Anne Orio, Christopher Palacio Nevarez, Alexander Robison, Logan Speakman, Eli Thomas, Lucio Vazquez, Tristan Wahl, Emmanuel Alvarez, Dustyn Banks, Damian Branco, Owen Carlson, Karla Coffman, Nathan Coffman, Amelia Graul, Liam Kordonowy, Owen Lieder, Noel Mesa, Saeed Mobaligh, Lance Pabst, Alan Padilla, Noah Presswood, Slade Pronk, Carlos Ramirez-Hernandez, Edwin Vazquez, Zachary Walksnoris, and Richard Woodward.

TEACHERS SAY FAREWELL TO NATE GIRDNER
As is the case in every profession, retirement is filled with both joy and sadness. Several CHS teachers are retiring this year, and the tears are flowing, but one in particular, CHS mathematics teacher Nate Girdner, decided he wanted to be closer to his family and transferred to a middle school in Gardnerville. Again, the tears began flowing, so several CHS teachers decided to take him out for some food and beverages, to wish him the very best, and they wanted to capture his going away with a photo and short note of encouragement in Senator Square. To Nate Girdner, and all CHS and CCSD transfers and retirees: May the road rise up to meet you / May the wind be always at your back / May the sun shine warm upon your face / And rains fall soft upon your fields / And until we meet again / May God hold you in the palm of His hand.

ATHLETES OF THE WEEK
CHS Athletic Department's Athletes of the Week for May 27 through May 31 are Nicholas Melsheimer for Varsity Boys Swim and Dive and Abigail Pradere for Varsity Girls Track and Field. These athletes, and all students who participate in school functions through leadership, clubs, and sports, deserve a high level of recognition and congratulations.

STUDENT OF THE WEEK
Clare Stephenson is the CHS Student of the Week, nominated by CHS Spanish teacher Kathy Yao. According to Mrs. Yao, “Clare is a great learner and always wants to know more, and she is a very positive and cheerful individual.” Not only does Clare participate in her classes, she goes above and beyond in that she has won awards in both band and honor choir. On top of all this, Mrs. Yao said “One of my academically challenged students always wants to be Clare’s partner because she can explain and answer questions so well.” Congratulations to Clare Stephenson. CHS is a great place to attend because of students like Clare.

Senator Square columnist Phil Brady is an English teacher at Carson High School in Carson City, Nev.

Hello fellow anglers. The official start of summer is only two weeks away and the weather has started to cooperate. Many of the passes are opening and the higher lakes are thawing out. Winter seems to get longer and longer each year. So enjoy the next two weeks of spring, because I have a feeling its going to be a hot year. Fishing has started to pick up all over the area, and with the school year ending for most kids, we are now in full camping mode. There are still some areas that are closed, due to the excessive winter we just had. I will try to keep you updated as the season progresses.

LAKE TAHOE: Mackinaw Lake trout fishing on Lake Tahoe is excellent right now for limits of 1 to  8 pounds. Cal Neva point, Sugar Pine point, Dollar Point, and the south shore shelf's are all heavily loaded with mackinaw lake trout. They are stuffed to the gills with shrimp, crawdads , and Kokanee Salmon. Dodgers and flashers trailed with a minnow are highly effective right now bouncing the bottom slowly. Starting in 80 feet and progressing to 200 feet are the depths trolled for success. Morning is better than afternoon. Cave Rock, Lake Forrest, and Sand Harbor are open now. For more information call Gene St. Denis (530) 544-6552 Blue Ribbon Fishing Charters.

CAPLES LAKE: I have a report of the first catch of the season. Rob Bickor was casting a 1/4 oz spoon at the Woods Creek inlet and caught a nice rainbow trout. There is also some open waters by the spillway and the dam. The resort is planning to open by this weekend. The lake is breaking up quickly and the boat ramp may be open in a couple weeks. This time of year is a good time to throw out an inflated night crawler for the big browns and rainbows. For more information stop by the Caples Lake Resort or call 209-258-8888.

RED LAKE: The lake is breaking up and should be ice free by the weekend, if the weather cooperates. The CDFW has scheduled a plant of rainbow and cutthroat trout.

WOODS LAKE: The road to the campground and lake was not open as of last weekend.

BURNSIDE LAKE: Road still closed.

BLUE LAKES: The road is open to the 3rd gate. That is approximately 4.5 miles in from highway 88.

SILVER LAKE: I have not had any reports on the ice conditions. I plan on checking the lake out this week and will let you know in my next report.

INDIAN CREEK RESERVOIR: Fishing has been good from shore. Green or yellow Powerbait has been most productive. Some anglers have been throwing spinners or Kastmasters away from the weedy areas with good success. The water level is up and the lake is still fairly clear of weeds, but they will come in fast with our warming temperatures.

HIGHLAND LAKES:  Highway 4 over Ebbetts pass is open. The road into the lakes is still closed.

EAST FORK CARSON RIVER CALIFORNIA SIDE: The river is running good and very fishable. The river was stocked a few weeks ago by Alpine County. They also planted 400 Lahontan Cutthroat trout from Heenan Lake, with the average size of 2 lbs plus. Power eggs or salmon eggs have been most productive. Spinners have also been productive in the slower waters. For more information, stop by Todd's Bait and Tackle.

WEST FORK CARSON RIVER CALIFORNIA SIDE: The CDFW is scheduled to plant the river this week with catchable rainbows. Fishing has been good up in the Hope Valley area above Sorenson’s resort. Power bait or 1/2 a night crawler have been productive.

MARKLEEVILLE CREEK: Fishing has been very good for small rainbows, with an occasional 2-3 pounder. Those were put in a couple weeks ago by Alpine County. Powerbait or mice tails have been most productive. For more information stop by Todd's Bait and Tackle.

SILVER CREEK: The CDFW is scheduled to plant the river this week with rainbow trout.

BRIDGEPORT RESERVOIR: Fishing has been good. Sterling and Regina Peters jumped at the first milder weather window, grabbed a rental boat, and got out their trolling gear. After sending red and gold Thomas Bouyants out during the morning, rumor has it that the missus soundly trounced the mister, bringing in the greater share of several plump Rainbows. Dave Jones used a Rapala with a brown trout pattern and wouldn’t you know it, caught himself a very respectable Brown weighing in at a shade under 3 lbs. Another angler, Mario Garcielita of Boyle Heights, trolled an unusual Rapala Silver Shad and collected three rainbows on his stringer despite mounting winds. Not to be outdone, former Bridgeport resident Mike Booher assembled a mass of Los Banos buddies and clobbered the resident Rainbow population, showcasing his own 4.8 lb trout while William Gilardi managed to sneak up on the “top fish” honors by grabbing a 4.2 pounder for himself. Others in the group, including Jared Crist, Drake Cook, Alec Barcellos, and several young fish-slayers-in-training snatched up a multitude of rainbows that ranged from the pound to 2.5 lb. range. They reported that pink and green PowerBait and the ol’ trusty night crawlers enabled them to amass their impressive fish feed. A big group for sure! (Did I say “pontoon boats?” We have two now that are available for rent; they hold seven people each). Report provided by Chase at the Bridgeport Marina and Campground at 760-932-7001.

JUNE LAKE REPORT: June Lake Marina (760) 648-7726 According to Abby, fishing has been good mainly from boats at each end of the lake using the popular floating baits, jigging Sierra Slammers, and casting Thomas Bouyants and Kastmasters. Trolling is working well about five colors with Rapalas and Taz Devils. She adds that they are regularly releasing trophy size Oregon Rainbows from their pens.
Big Rock Resort (760) 648-7717 Mike and Laurie tell me that fishing has been good from shore and boat for those who put in the time and effort considering the recent weather. One of his customers who Mike calls “Mr. Big Rock” brought in a beautiful 5 lb - 15 oz Rainbow fly casting from shore. Stephanie from Glendale, Ca. proudly showed off a three fish stringer of Cutt-Bows including a nice three pounder. She was trolling with Dan from La Canada seven colors Bloody Rippers and Arctic Fox Tube Trolling Flies which are available at Ernie’s. Nice job Stephanie, and nice two-tone fingernails.

SILVER LAKE: Silver Lake Resort 760)648-7525  The Resort put in a load of about 1.5 lb Oregon Rainbows prior to Memorial Day on top of a larger fish drop end of April. Lake has been fishing well for those with some perseverance and should improve with the coming warmer weather. Plenty of Browns, Rainbows, and Cutts have been brought into the scales in the 2 to 4 lb range caught from boat and shore using Powerbait, night crawlers, jigs, and a variety of lures. As Tom at the dock always says, you must use 5 to 6’ of leader with floating baits at Silver. 2 to 3’ might work at other lakes but not here. Keep in mind the Resort will be holding their annual July 4th horseshoe tournament, as well as on Labor Day.

RUSH CREEK: Flows have tapered off a bit recently allowing better access. We’ll see what effect the warmer temps and anticipated increase in run-off have. Recent catches include a 2 lb - 13 oz Rainbow with salmon eggs. Go with eggs and crawlers with extra weight to get down in the flow and toss lures wherever you can.

GULL LAKE: Gull Lake Marina (760) 648-7539  Gull has been slow due to the aforementioned conditions. Outside my window, however, I’ve seen more boats on the lake the past few days than the last couple weeks so surely things will pick up. The Marina hopes to bring in some Oregonian trout before the Fourth of July week. In the meantime, there’s a lot of fish that have been put in during April/May that haven’t been caught because of the light pressure. For some fun, try jigging for Perch along the reed bank. For more information call Ernie's Tackle and Ski Shop at 760-648-7756.

Good luck on your next fishing adventure. If you get a photo of your catch send it to editor@carsonnow.org. I hope to see you on the waters. Good fishin' and tight lines.

For those who are interested in buying a home or relocating to Northern Nevada, Chase International’s inaugural “Open House Showcase” on Saturday, June 22 may be the perfect occasion to see some of the region’s best options on the market today, all in one day.

From 11:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m. Chase International real estate agents will host open house events from Reno, to Sparks, to Carson Valley, NV.

Frodge took the baggie and unrolled it, revealing a clear crystal like substance at the bottom. Deputies asked him again what was inside the baggie, and he stated he did not know.

Deputies took possession of the baggie, which was later confirmed to contain methamphetamine, and asked both Frodge and Underwood to step out of the car.

Deputies read Frodge his miranda rights, and he declined to speak with deputies further. When deputies asked Underwood about the drugs, she said she had no idea they were in the car. Deputies pointed out the drugs were within reach of both she and Frodge, and were visible in the center console. She said again she had no idea they were there.

Deputies told her she was under arrest, but did not handcuff her because she was holding her dog. Animal control came and took possession of the dog.

Later, during a search of the vehicle prior to towing, deputies located a black glasses case under the driver’s side seat which contained a loaded hypodermic device, an empty hypodermic device, a pipe used to smoke methamphetamine, and a clear vile with methamphetamine residue.

At the jail, they searched Underwood’s purse and found a small amount of marijuana, along with three round orange pills which were identified as .5mg Alprazolam, which is only available by prescription. She did not have a prescription, and she told deputies she had found them in her car.

The pair were booked without issue.

Frodge’s bail: $4,300

Underwood’s bail: $5,000

— A 38-year-old Carson City man was arrested in the 1000 block of S. Carson Street for domestic battery early Friday morning after fighting with his twin brother.

According to the police report, deputies were dispatched to a local motel on reports of what sounded like a fight coming from one of the rooms. Dispatch advised the man and his twin brother were registered to the room.

On scene, deputies located the room and knocked on the door. The man answered the door and appeared short of breath and agitated as he spoke. He had fresh abrasions and blood on his face and mouth area, the report stated, and had red marks consistent with a physical struggle on his mid and lower back.

The brothers were separated and interviewed. The twin brother was in the living room, and also had red abrasions as well as blood and swelling to his face, right ear, left eye, scalp and mouth. He also had a cut on his left hand.

The brother was reluctant to face deputies and speak with them. He told deputies there had been a fight between himself and the man because the man was heavily intoxicated and couldn’t find his cell phone, and wanted the brother to help him find it. He said the man became aggressive and attacked him, and he fought back and defended himself. He said the fight ended and he went back to his room.

Deputies spoke with the man, who refused to talk to deputies. He said there was no fight, and that the fresh blood and abrasions on him were just “color.” He appeared heavily intoxicated, slurred his speech and had an odor of alcohol coming from his person as he spoke.

Both brothers refused to have their injuries photographed, both refused medical attention and both refused a preliminary breath test for alcohol.

The man was arrested without issue.

Bail: $3,137

— A 32-year-old Sun Valley man was arrested in the 3400 block of Carson Street for hit and run with property damage and careless driving after running his semi-truck into a pillar of the entrance cover.

According to the report, deputies arrived on scene to a local hotel where they met with a manager who was with the Carson City Fire Department, assessing the building. The manager told deputies that at around 1:40 p.m., a semi-truck hit the south east pillar of the entrance cover, which was visibly moved a few inches on the base. The damage was estimated to be approximately $20,000-30,000, but could potentially be more if there was additional structural damage.

Employees on scene stated there was a loud bang with lots of smoke and dust in the air. Several other witnesses on scene had seen the crash as well, and stated there were two men inside the truck.

Deputies contacted the truck’s company, who’s logo was visibly printed on the side of the truck, and they advised none of their trucks were showing in Carson City. However, they had “brokered out a truck” to a tire company.

At around 4:41 p.m., the manager of the hotel had located the truck at a local tire store, which had damage to its right side.

Deputies responded to the location and met with the driver of the vehicle, who denied his truck had been in a crash. He said he turned around at the hotel, and that he never hit anything. The passenger also denied anything happened. The deputies told the men they did not believe this was true considering multiple people from inside the hotel heard the bang, and there was smoke and dust from the pillar.

After the passenger was read his miranda rights, he told deputies he works for a temp agency and was assigned to assist the Sun Valley man. He was in the passenger side when the Sun Valley man drove into the parking lot of the hotel at a high rate of speed, struck the pillar, and kept driving. He told the man they should stop since they hit the building. The man allegedly replied, if they wanted him to stop they can come outside and chase them down.

According to the report, deputies spoke with employees at the tire shop, who advised the truck had been parked there since 1:30 p.m., and that they had struck a curb which damaged a tire. Deputies checked the damage on the truck, and noticed scrapes on the right side and damage to one of the right side tires.

The Sun Valley man was taken into custody for hit and run with property damage and careless driving.

Bail: $862
