Friday, November 27, 2020 1:00 AM

The Winnemucca Literary Guild, one of the oldest community clubs in town (only being outdone in longevity by the Century Club) has been in charge of the Dictionary Project for the past 20 years.

Because of Covid-19, older members are staying away from meeting in public and instead staying home to be safe, which led fundraising for the dictionaries in dire straights.
