Leisure Hour Club Recognizes Academic Excellence at WNC
The Leisure Hour Club’s scholarship recipients and Western Nevada College will be the focus of the Club’s dinner meeting on Wednesday, Nov. 15. As part of the Club’s commitment to education, three $1,000 academic scholarships are funded at Western Nevada College annually. This year the recipients are:
— Ciarra Begovich – Douglas High School
— Annji Hodorowicz – Carson High School
— Antoinette Rose – Carson High School
The Club’s recognition of these outstanding students will be followed by comments by WNC Foundation Executive Director Niki Gladys and WNC Learning Resource Director Denise Frohlich.
As a recent hire at the College, Ms. Frohlich is excited to share her vision for the WNC library and media services department. At Odessa College in Texas, her previous professional appointment, Denise was responsible for transforming their library into a state-of-the-art learning resource center.
The transformation impacted student success by encouraging students to collaborate, innovate and get excited about their studies using the latest technology. She believes that Western Nevada College's expansive, 22,000 square foot library has huge potential to impact both students and our local community.
If you would like to attend this event, please call the Club’s reservation chair at (775) 400-2647 no later than Thursday, November 9 to make your reservation. The meeting is preceded by a buffet dinner at 6:00 pm in the Carson Nugget Capitol Ballroom. Reservations for the meeting and dinner are required.
The Leisure Hour Club, established in September of 1896, is Carson City’s oldest continuously meeting social organization. Continuing to celebrate its 122nd year, the organization is focused on its goal of promoting knowledge on important issues, science, music and literature.
