Hospitality of the Year Nomination
By houseadmin Monday, 07 November 2011 19:02
We were pleased to hear that The Richardson House has been nominated for the Truckee Donner Chamber of Commerce's Hospitality of the Year award. The 58th Annual Awards Dinner will be on Wednesday, November 9th. We will be attending with our fingers crossed to see if The Richardson House will receive this honor. The Richardson House donates a percentage of all bookings to the Truckee Donner Historical Society and is a proud sponsor of the annual Historical Haunted Walking Tour. We also offer a meeting space for local not-for-profit organizations.
House Manager, Chelsea Walterscheid, was nominated as Volunteer of the Year. Chelsea has spent over fifteen years on the Board of Directors of the Truckee Donner Historical Society and as Curator of the Old Jail Museum. Chelsea is a co-producer of the Historical Haunted Walking Tour and an inaugural member of the Town of Truckee's Citizens Waste Management Advisory Committee. She has spent most of her life volunteering for organizations and events in her hometown and can't be more proud of this wonderful community.
