Dear Lincoln County Resident and Business Owner,

My name is Iliana G. Villegas, and I am honored to be assigned to the University of Nevada, Reno Extension in Lincoln County.

Whether you are ranching in Hiko, running a business in Caliente, farming in Panaca or managing services in Pioche, Rachel or Eagle Valley, I am here to serve as your direct link to the resources, grants and educational programs of the University of Nevada, Reno.

My goal is simple: to ensure Lincoln County gets the support it deserves. To do this effectively, I need to hear directly from the heartbeat of our county — you. I have prepared a very brief, three-minute community assessment to identify our most pressing needs. Your responses are anonymous.

Your participation enters you for a chance to win one of three $20 gift cards as a thank you for your time.

Why answer this?

• It helps me prioritize which grants to pursue for our county.
• It guides the creation of new programming
• It ensures that Lincoln County’s specific rural needs are heard at the state level.

I want to get to know you. Please feel free to reply to this email with more information about your ranch or business. I want to know what you do so I can share relevant opportunities with you directly. My office in Caliente is always open to you, and I look forward to meeting you in person soon.

Sincerely,
Iliana Villegas
Extension Coordinator, Lincoln County
