The Local Lens – Washoe Sheriff’s Tiffany Clements Retirement & Local News
August 7, 2024 | Linda Offerdahl
CONGRATULATIONS TO TIFFANY CLEMENTS on her retirement from the Washoe County Sheriff’s Office as a Field/Community Specialist with the Incline Substation! She is well-known in Incline because she attends in an official capacity or volunteers at, most local fundraisers and community events. Tiffany’s work is often behind the scenes but results in successful events like the Sheriff’s Office Community Picnic and setting up the patriotic décor around town for the Local Heroes 4th of July Celebration. She is always part of the organizing committee for community events. She represents the Sheriff’s Office at “Meet and Greets,” including the Incline Library Clean-up and Block Party and Candy Cane Village at UNR@Lake Tahoe. Tiffany’s career with Washoe County included 20 years with the Second District Judicial Court. You will continue to see Tiffany around town because she is a local resident and an active member of the Rotary Club of Tahoe-Incline.
DMV KIOSK
Did you know there was a Kiosk for the DMV(Department of Motor Vehicles) in Raleys? Thank Tiffany, former Captain Blaine Beard, and the DMV Now team. Residents can renew their vehicle registration and print the tags right there at the kiosk, located at the entrance closest to the produce aisles.
DON’T MISS OUT!
I know I am not the only with FOMO. So I hope YOU did not miss the wonderful Classical Tahoe summer concerts that ended last weekend. But it is not too late to get out to Sand Harbor for the Shakespeare Festival’s performance of The Merry Wives of Windsor or their Signature Concert Series on Mondays and Tuesdays. On my calendar: the Carole King cover show next Tuesday, August 13.
It might be too late to get tickets for Tahoe Family Solutions “Hoo Doo in the Bayou” on August 15th, but it’s NOT TOO LATE to plan to attend the Candidate Night for Washoe County Commissioners on the same night. Marsha Berkbigler, a former commissioner of Incline is running against the incumbent Alexis Hill.

BURNING MAN PHOTOGRAPHY FANS
Whether you have ever been a “Burner” at the festival on the Black Rock desert or simply love fabulous photography, there are two ongoing photography shows by local residents who are “almost famous” at Burning Man. Eleanor Preger’s show is down at the Sierra Arts Foundation in Reno. Vanessa Franking, who has made a name for herself with amazing “light” photography has a show that opens next Monday for 5 weeks in South Shore in the Haldan Gallery on the campus of Lake Tahoe Community College. These women are longtime local residents. You have seen their work in the gallery in the Reno Airport as well.
