SILVER DOLLAR: To Carson High School for its “CHS: Unplugged” campaign last week in which it encouraged students to become less dependent and to turn off all of their devices.

SILVER DOLLAR: To all those involved in reestablishing the Disabled American Disabled Veterans Auxiliary in Carson City. And to the Reno Air Races for holding Military Day on Saturday to honor our military.
