Community partners are a big part of the education system in northern Nevada. Many service organizations focus on youth and none more than Rotary International and the Knights of Columbus.
ACE High School has long been a community partner of the Rotary Club of Reno Centennial Sunset and in 2024 the school built a shed for the equestrian center at Marvin Picollo School. Marvin Picollo is also a partner school of our Rotary Club and KofC Council #13842 at St Rose of Lima catholic church.
These two entities worked together to understand the needs of the equestrian center and the skills of the construction students at ACE. The result was the delivery of a much needed 10’x12’ tack shed that was delivered in mid-May. Recently, members of the Knights of Columbus painted the shed and turned the keys over to program director Sue Lennon.
We are most grateful to Bob DeRuse at ACE Charter High School and Sue Lennon at Marvin Picollo for their efforts in seeing the project through. We also thank Don Eberlein with the Knights of Columbus and Joe Burgess with RCS Rotary for their vision and co-operation.
Together, we can. Chip Lindloff
