Li November 3,2009 Administration - Nye County, Nevada Nye County Board Application Nye County is an Equal Opportunity Employer and Provider ---PAGE BREAK--- Helen W. Schneider I have lived in Pahrump for twenty years. Before that, I lived in Illinois. I was a Village Clerk for a village incorporated in 1976. I worked with the building inspector, polices, and the other elected town officials. The members of this board have had to attend the open meetings session, which I taught to the necessary members of the village. I served as a school board member for eight years. We as a board raised our national test scores to the 90% in all subjects tested. Since I have moved here, I became a 4-H Dog Leader and joined the Pahrump Valley Kennel Club, which now the Pahrump Valley Obedience Club. I have served 4 terms as President, 1 year as Secretary, 2 years as a Board Member and 3 years a Show Chairman. As Show Chairman< I have worked with the Tourism employs. We have had exhibitors coming from Utah, California, Arizona, New Mexico, Oregon, Idaho, and all over Nevada to our dos show. The exhibitors have loved coming to Pahrump and the dog show, many mark their calendars for the next year dates. The town provides our show with goody bags which our exhibitors appreciated and look forward to the bags. No other show gives goody bags to their exhibitors. Several have said that they are considering moving to Pahrump because of the friend people and the town itself. I’m currently on the Pahrump Parks and Recreation Advisory Board and serve as Secretary of that Board. The Board sees more sports tournament coming to Pahrump in the future.
