Sheila Moulton

Sheila Moulton, a member of the Las Vegas Centennial Committee, works for the Clark County School Board as a trustee in District G. She is married to Larry with 6 children and 9 grandchildren. They moved to Las Vegas when Larry opened, as manager, the first Sav-On Drugstore in 1978 on Eastern and Bonanza.

Sheila's favorite memory of Las Vegas is her great, great grandfather, Thomas E. Ricks. He was one of the original missionaries in June of 1855 and lived at the Mormon Fort.

As she has lived on the east end of the Valley and taken many walks along Hollywood Boulevard, she wonders what her great, great grandfather would have thought of the growth that Las Vegas has seen come to pass. Sheila says to have participated in and watched Las Vegas obtain international status and notoriety would have been beyond the imagination of her great, great grandfather and to further have imagined his great, great, great grandchildren being a part of his initial community in 2005 is unimaginable!

She thinks that in 100 years Las Vegas will be a community focused on education and a resolve that we serve one another and the world, not only as a tourist destination but as an economically live environment where new natural resources are unfolding.

What's her favorite piece of Las Vegas trivia? That the Clark County School District grows at the rate of 13,000 new students each year. Sheila's vision of the Las Vegas Centennial is that every child and student in Las Vegas participates in an educational experience relating to or promoting the 100th birthday of Las Vegas. Children in our community will have respect and love for the place they call "home."
