The Reno/Sparks Retirees Club continued their tradition of giving around the holidays in 2016. By selling raffle tickets at its monthly meetings, the group raised $900 and divided the proceeds evenly between three worthy charities — the Ronald McDonald House, Reno Veterans Guest House and Northern Nevada Children’s Cancer Society.
