Fall Festival thank you

On behalf of the Arts & Crafts Committee, we thank the Town of Pahrump for allowing the Shadow Mountain Quilters to chair this creative competition and for their support before and throughout the event.

We extend thanks to the Pahrump Valley Times for publishing briefs soliciting entries and their excellent coverage of Fall Festival events. Thank you to the judges, who gave of their time and knowledge.

Thank you to all of the volunteers who received, sorted and arranged entries, as well as providing security for the entries during the show, helping with clean-up and so many other tasks. Thank you to the Master Gardeners, Spring Mountain Art Guild, the Woodworkers Guild of Pahrump, for their support.

Thank you to the members of our community who made and entered their wonderfully unique and one-of-a-kind items; festival-goers admired and praised your creative arts and crafts on display.

We hope to see more entries next year, as the Shadow Mountain Quilters would like to again chair Arts & Crafts, helping it grow and return to the harvest festival feeling of old. So start thinking of what you plan to enter in 2015.

As a moderate Republican I am just shaking my head at the mindless automatons we actually call elected officials who have been storming around causing complete chaos on Capitol Hill for two weeks.

Short-term rentals are not a threat to our community. They are an economic lifeline for many retirees, working families, and property owners like myself.

If Dr. Waters wants to bring it back, he should list positive things that were in fact done and propose changes for the future – not make an argument based on a hypothetical.
