Lyon Democratic Central Committee donates to all food banks in Lyon County December 11, 2009 With many Lyon County residents struggling due to high unemployment, foreclosures and the economic downturn in general, the Lyon County Democratic Central Committee has decided to donate $1,000 to be evenly divided among the food banks in Silver Springs, Fernley, Dayton, and Yerington. Each food bank will be able to use the donation to choose items that are most needed in their own communities. This is helpful because food banks have different supplies depending on local donations. For instance, the Dayton Food Bank recently has had generous donations of jelly, macaroni and cheese, hygiene items, and soups from local school drives.
