Jack and Tom Reviglio, founders of Western Nevada Supply, are being recognized not only for outstanding service and products supplied to housing and construction projects throughout northern Nevada, but for their service to the community and their support of children and families throughout the Truckee Meadows. Manifested in numerous ways, the Reviglios generosity has supported such organizations as the Boys and Girls Club and Bishop Manogue High School for many years.
Known as one of the visionaries for the creation of Caughlin Ranch, one of Reno’s premiere housing communities, Alan Means is being recognized for the quality homes and the environment many citizens enjoy today.
