Nevada Magazine's current issue features two centennial celebrations —
the Lincoln Highway in Nevada and the
Pioneer Saloon in Goodsprings, about 40 miles southwest of Las Vegas. This year marks the 100th anniversary of the Lincoln Highway, and you can still drive on original sections of it in the Silver State. Also, towns along U.S. Highway 50 will be celebrating the centennial during
select dates in June.
The Pioneer Saloon, the subject of this issue's History story, was built by Clark County commissioner George Fayle in 1913, when the mill town was enjoying its boom years. One hundred years later, the Pioneer Saloon is still standing…and still serving. It contains a Memorial Room in honor of actress Carole Lombard, who died in 1942 as a result of a plane crash on nearby Mount Potosi. Her husband, actor Clark Gable, spent time at the saloon while awaiting news of
Lombard's fate.
The issue also features Nevada’s
array of professional and collegiate sporting events that promise to keep residents and tourists entertained without breaking the bank — whether you’re root-root-rooting for the home team at a Las Vegas 51s or Reno Aces Triple-A baseball game, hitting the hardwood with the Reno Bighorns basketball team, or annoying everyone in earshot with your vuvuzela at a Las Vegas Legends soccer match.
The story also covers hockey, bowling, collegiate sports, golf, and motorsports.
Also in the issue are stories about prospecting for gold and other minerals in Nevada,
Thunder Mountain Indian Monument in Imlay,
Las Vegas Distillery, Boyz II Men's
new headliner show at The Mirage, and a Q&A with Reno-Sparks Convention & Visitors Authority President and CEO Chris Baum about
Reno's new slogan, "All Seasons—1,000 Reasons."
