Daylite Receives Thank You!!
In the January 2012 issue of DSW Times, published by the Desert Southwest Chapter of Nevada Alzheimer's Association, highlighted service given by Daylite #22 and their families.
Congrats Rainbow Girls!
The International Order of Rainbow for Girls, Daylite Assembly #22 had a Pancake Breakfast in early January 2012. All proceeds for the event benefited the Alzheimer's Association. It was a wonderful event and I was thrilled to be a small part of their morning.
The dedication these young ladies and their families show for the Alzheimer's Association is incredible.
Rainbow Girls learn about giving back to their community with the Alzheimer's Association being their National Service Project.
Thank you ladies for all you do!

Greetings to Nevada Rainbow
I was Grand Worthy Advisor for Nevada in 1949-50. For many of you that may seem like the dark ages. As far as technology is concerned, it was. We didn’t have email or texting, even ‘snailmail’ was not used. Nevertheless, the one thing that existed there was Rainbow Spirit. As I traveled the state from Elko to Las Vegas or Ely to Reno, I met girls from different environments and with different ideas. Each was an individual but all produced the same warm feelings and ideals of Rainbow.
Today, Rainbow is not as large as it was when I was an active participant. I guess I can relate that to the fact that there are so many, many more places to expend your productive time and energy. I do not believe that the warm feeling of Rainbow is any less than it was “back in the old days”. You are the future of your area and state. It will be up to you to go out to the country and keep the course even or in a better direction so the continuation of Rainbow and her ideas will not be lost.
Remember girls, you are Rainbow. What you do and how you do it will reflect on the following generations of citizens where girls will play their equal parts in pointing the ways to how we will ultimately live together with and for each other.
