In recognition of Historic Preservation and Archeological Awareness Month, Carson City’s Historic Resources Commission has organized the 2024 Scavenger Hunt.
“This year’s hunt focuses on the early years of Carson City, beginning in the 1860s and continuing through 1900, and will ask participants to match the architectural term with the correct house,” the city said in a press release.
A copy of the 2024 Scavenger Hunt can be obtained starting Wednesday, May 1 at 108 E. Proctor St., or at www.carson.org/scavengerhunt.
Completed answers are due by 3 p.m. May 31. Answers may be submitted in person at 108 E. Proctor St., online, or emailed to planning@carson.org.
“For the sixth year in a row, Jim Phalan of Fox Brewpub is donating a gift card to the person whose hunt is randomly drawn from correct entries,” according to the city. “Also, at the Board of Supervisor’s May 2 meeting, the 2024 Historic Preservation Award will be presented, recognizing Sarah Martin for her outstanding contributions to Carson City’s Historic Preservation, including the preservation of the Rinckel Mansion located at 102 N. Curry St.; and posthumously recognizing Stan Jones for his continuous support of the Historic District and the work of the Carson City Historic Resources Commission.”
