Great minds don’t think alike. If they did, they wouldn’t be so

great, now would they? Great minds ask new questions, take

risks and push boundaries. Great minds always follow their

own paths. Paths that lead to bold new ideas. At Saturn, we’re

rethinking everything we do. Everything from the kinds of

vehicles we make to the impact they have on the people who

drive them. Sure, we may just be a car company. But if we

rethink what a car company can be, we can be a great one.

Just something to rethink about.

History of the Carson MintNevada State Museum keeps Carson’s history in mint condition On March 3, 1863, federal legislation creating the U.S. Mint at Carson

City was passed by both houses of the United States Congress. Th e

Carson City Mint opened offi cially in 1870, just 12 years after the birth

of Carson City. Th e mint produced coins from 1870-85 and again from

1889-93.

But by 1899 all of the presses had been removed and by 1933 the once

bustling facility stood empty.

In 1939 Judge Clark J. Guild would help persuade the Nevada

Legislature to save the abandoned mint from the wrecker. Th is act

preserved the building that is now proud home to the Nevada State

Museum, which opened on Oct. 31, 1941.

Th e museum dedicates its eff orts to preserving the rich history of the

Silver State as well as the history of the state’s capital, Carson City.

Th e museum is located in downtown Carson City, along the Kit

Carson Walking Trail, making it an integral part of the history and cultural

landscape of the capital.

Visitors can take a walk through time at the Nevada State Museum in

Carson City. Th e museum’s collection of coins bearing the “CC” mintmark

is recognized as one of the fi nest and most complete CC collections ever

assembled, containing 109 of the 111 diff erent dates and denominations

struck at the historic Carson City Mint.

In the spirit of recognizing the museum’s origins as a mint, a

demonstration of Coin Press No. One is held on the last Friday of every

month.

Nevada’s history is brought to life during tours of the museum’s

Underground Mine exhibit and the replica ghost town. Both transport

the viewer back through time to catch a glimpse of the state’s beginnings.

Delve even deeper to fi nd out when humans fi rst occupied the

Nevada portion of the Great Basin, the natural foods they collected and

the skills they used for survival. See a reconstruction of a Great Basin cave

containing evidence of past cultures and climate.

Th e museum is home to one of the most extensive Washoe basketry

collections including many pieces from Dat-so-la-lee. Abe Cohn of Carson

City’s Indian Emporium promoted her as the fi nest Washoe weaver.

Th e Nevada’s Changing Earth exhibit explores the state’s geologic

history from 1,750 million years ago to 40 million years ago. Th e story

is told through the use of original illustrations together with rock

specimens and fi eld photographs, as well as a walk-through Devonian Sea

and a mammoth skeleton.

Th e Nevada State Museum actively engages

people in understanding and celebrating

Nevada’s natural and cultural heritage. Th e

museum collects, preserves, and presents

this heritage through exhibits, educational

programs and publications. Many enjoy guided

tours, performance, demonstrations and lectures

regularly hosted by the Nevada State Museum.

Th e Nevada State Museum, 600 N. Carson St., is

open daily from 8:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m. For information call

687-4810 or visit www.nevadaculture.org.

Recreation Guide

Outdoor Safety Tips An outdoors emergency may develop at any time with

lightning-quick speed. Anticipate potential dangers associated

with specifi c outings: High-altitude situations, dehydration and

heat problems, problems caused by cold. Take into account the

relative accessibility of outside professional medical care.

Th e following suggestions are from the Sierra Club’s “Outing

Leader Handbook.”

IMMEDIATE FIRST AID:

• Prevent further injury to the victim. Stop arterial bleeding,

restore breathing, check for pulse, and, if necessary, begin CPR.

Maintain adequate body warmth and treat for shock.

• Do not move the victim until you have ascertained the injuries.

• Practice the STOP scenario - Stop, Th ink, Observe, Plan.

Th oroughly consider the situation before you plan a course of

action. Speed is less important than correct response.

• Decide whether to evacuate the victim with available resources

or send for help. Ideally, one person should stay with the victim

and two should go for help. Messengers seeking help should

have written information as to the location and nature of the

injury. Advise messengers to save strength for the return trip.

SPECIFIC AILMENTS:

• Heat stroke: Victim is uncoordinated, confused, delirious and

convulsing. Body temperature must be lowered immediately

by sponging with tepid water, fanning and cool drinks.

Evacuation recommended.

• Heat exhaustion: Victim is cool, clammy, dizzy, has a headache,

and may have cramps. Liquids and rest with a lowered head

recommended.

• Acute mountain sickness: Caused by too rapid an ascent to

above about 9,000 feet. Victim has headache, drowsiness, loss

of appetite, nausea, vomiting and abnormal sleep patterns.

Treat with descent to about 3,000 feet, rest, adequate fl uid

intake and headache pain medicine. Do not administer sleeping

medicines as they may mask pulmonary edema symptoms.

• High-altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE): Symptoms

are shortness of breath and rapid respiration, weakness,

disorientation, cough, frothy pink sputum and racing pulse.

Treatment is immediate descent, rest and oxygen.

• Frostbite: In its beginning stage, fl esh is unfrozen but turns

gray and waxy-looking. If there is no chance of refreezing, treat

superfi cial frostbite by warming aff ected body parts in 102- to

106-degree water for 30 to 45 minutes. Unless you can maintain

proper treatment, don’t begin it; you can walk on frozen feet

but not on partially thawed feet. Rubbing or applying direct

heat to the body parts increases damage.

• Hypothermia: Th is insidious drain of body energy is often not

recognized until it is life-threatening. Always assess its potential

and be prepared for changing weather. Avoid wet clothing and

dress in layers. Beware of wind-chill factor and cover your head

and hands. Take action as soon as symptoms begin.

With mild hypothermia, victim is indecisive, loses fi ne motor

control, shivers, and is tired. Warm the person in any possible

way, administer warm drinks, and get the victim into warm, dry

clothing. Seek protection from the elements and maintain food

and water.

With severe hypothermia, victim is sleepy, confused, irritable,

staggers, and has slurred speech. Pulse is slow, pupils are dilated,

and breathing is shallow. Place the naked victim in a sleeping

bag and have he or she maintain skin-to-skin contact with

another person.

• Rattlesnake bite: Get victim away from the snake to avoid a

second strike. Victim should remain calm and lay down to

keep the bite area above the heart. Put pressure on the bite

with a pressure extractor pump or by an elastic bandage. Do

NOT use tourniquets, cut the bite area, or suck venom from the

wound. Evacuate victim immediately.

Common sense, combined with knowledge of the terrain, level

of activity required and weather predictions, can spell life or

death in an outdoors crisis.

THE 10 ESSENTIALS:

Th ese are outdoors outing items Sierra Club leaders say you

• Sunglasses

Other times are devoted to riding balloons simply for sheer fun

and spectacle - some will even glow in the dark.

while.

New to Town…

Here’s a list of things you need to do,

places you need to contact if you just moved here.

SchoolsTh e local school district offi ce will help new residents with issues

in transferring school-age children into their system. For Carson

School District, that’s 283-2000. In Douglas County, the school

district number is 782-5134.

Driver’s LicenseAll new residents are required to get a Nevada driver’s license

within 30 days of moving to the state. DMV requires a valid license

from your old home state, proof of your Social Security number

and, for certain states including California, additional proof such

as a birth certifi cate. Licenses are $21.25 - $16.25 for those 65 and

older. Further information is available online at

www.nevadadmv.state.nv.us or by calling

DMV’s licensing division at 684-4368 in Carson City.

Vehicle RegistrationIf you’re a resident, you’re required to register your vehicles

in Nevada. DMV requires proof of vehicle liability insurance

and your current registration and license plates. Th e Vehicle

Identifi cation Number must match that on the registration and

will be physically inspected by DMV before Nevada plates are

issued. Owners can keep their out-of-state title but getting a

Nevada title is recommended to simplify selling the vehicle. Th ose

registering in Clark or Washoe counties must get a smog check

from a certifi ed inspector. To pay fees, DMV accepts cash, checks,

money orders and major credit cards. More information is

available on the DMV Web site: www.nevadadmv.state.nv.us or by

calling 684-4830.

PowerElectric power in Carson City is provided by Sierra Pacifi c Power

Co. To start new service, call 834-2900. Th e utility requires a name,

address of service and Social Security number. Th ey bill a $15 fee

the fi rst month for the connection and take a deposit that varies

according to the average usage at your new address. Th e deposit is

returned after a year. Most times, the whole process can be done

by phone.

Water and SewerIn Carson City, the city provides water and sewer service. Call the

city’s utility offi ce at 887-2355, ext. 2001. Th is applies to buyers

only since the city puts water and sewer in the owner’s name, not

in the name of renters. Call a week before escrow closes and they’ll

take care of it. Th ere is no deposit, fees are billed the fi rst month.

GasIn Reno, gas is also through Sierra Pacifi c but in Carson City

and most surrounding communities, it’s Southwest Gas Corp.

Southwest is at 882-2126. Th e requirements diff er according to

where the house is located since Southwest serves a large part of

Northern Nevada as well as California, so their advice is to call and

ask . Th ey’ll walk new customers through the process.

PhoneIn the Reno / Carson City area, traditional, local phone service

is through AT&T Nevada. AT&T’s number for new service is

800-288-2020. In Minden and Gardnerville service is provided

by Verizon, call 1 (800) 843-3000. With AT&T it’s $33.50 to turn

the line on. If you want a technician to go inside the house and

make sure everything works, add $90. Flat rate service, which

means unlimited local calling, costs $10.88 a month plus taxes.

Long distance is a separate issue and provided by dozens of

competitive companies. A quick credit check while you wait will

determine whether you need to pay a deposit or not. Charter

Communications also off ers telephone service, for details contact

number listed below.

Cable TVTh e traditional cable provider in the Carson City area is Charter

Communications at (888) 954-8484. But there are numerous

Breathtaking Beauty…

Lake Tahoe National Scenic BywayState Route 28 and Highway 50 skirt the edges of picturesque Lake

Tahoe, off ering spectacular views of its crystal-clear water and the

surrounding mountain forests of the Lake Tahoe Basin.

Mount Rose Scenic BywaySouth of Reno, State Route 431 climbs Mount Rose Summit to the

8,911-foot pass, the highest in the state. It’s like sitting on top of

the Sierra Nevada world, then descends into the Lake Tahoe Basin.

Pyramid Lake Scenic Byway National Scenic BywayNorth of Reno, State Route 445 around Pyramid Lake is the

only byway in the nation entirely within an American Indian

reservation. Th e tribe off ers fi shing permits and boat rentals as

well as a visitors center/museum with displays describing the lake’s

fascinating history and geology.

Angel Lake Scenic BywaySometimes called the “highway to heaven” because it rises several

thousand feet to divinely named Angel Lake, the road winds

upward through sagebrush and pi–on pine, mountain mahogany,

quaking aspen and limber pine. Angel Lake is tucked into a glacial

cirque high in the East Humboldt range, south of Wells.

Fort Churchill to Wellington Backcountry BywayFort Churchill to Wellington is in west-central Nevada 10 miles

east of Carson City. Th e eastern terminus is near Fort Churchill

State Historic Park off Highway 95A. Th e byway heads west to

Dayton and then south to end at the junction with NV 208 near

Wellington. It follows NV 2B, Como, Sunrise Pass, and Upper

Colony roads for a total of 67 miles. Best to take a 4-wheel drive

on this one.

Lamoille Canyon Scenic BywayTh e Ruby Mountains of Northeastern Nevada are among the

state’s wettest and most lush mountain ranges. Lamoille Canyon,

in the heart of the range, off ers some of the most spectacular

views found in the Rubies. Th e Lamoille Canyon Road winds

around the base of 11,249-foot Ruby Dome and climbs through

the glacier-carved canyon.

Great BasinTh ose traveling Highway 93 from Highway 50 to Crystal Springs

will want to explore Pioche. Th is mining camp dates back to the

1860s and is fi lled with historic sites. East of Pioche are Spring

Valley and Echo Canyon state parks, each a haven for fi shing,

camping and hiking. Cathedral Gorge State Park rests to the

south. Miller Point, at the north end, off ers a good overview of the

clay, gothic-like columns and walls. Lush, green farmland stretches

from Cathedral Gorge to Caliente, a quiet, former railroad town

noted for its imposing mission-style railroad depot. Between

Caliente and Crystal Springs, the striking beauty of Oak Springs,

and Pahroc Summits engulfs travelers.

All-American RoadTh e Las Vegas Strip was recently named an All-American Road,

a prestigious federal designation awarded to roads recognized

nationally and internationally for their outstanding and highly

unique qualities. Th e Strip is the only scenic byway in the world

that has the distinction of being as scenic and unique at night

as by day. Extraordinary sights include a giant Egyptian pyramid,

a medieval castle, the New York City skyline, an Italian lakeside

village, the Eiff el Tower, Venetian canals, and a Roman temple. And

there is neon everywhere. It’s like no place on earth.

Red Rock CanyonLocated a few miles west of Las Vegas, State Route 159 winds

through the 83,100-acre Red Rock Canyon National Conservation

Area in the shadow of the scenic Spring Mountain Range. A loop

trip from Las Vegas can be made in an afternoon. Multi-colored

sandstone formations, unique fl ora, and a large number of animals

such as Desert Bighorn Sheep, bobcats, gray foxes and wild burros

are seen here often.

Valley of Fire State ParkTh e Valley of Fire State Park is a fascinating landscape of wind-

sculpted red sandstone that is easily one of the Silver State’s

most unique desert environments. With the movement of the

sun, adventurers traveling in Valley of Fire can see the landscape

mutate from benign oranges and browns to deeper, more

dramatic shades of crimson and black.

bluegrass festival seriesFirst Annual

saturday, June 7th • sunday, june 8th

The Mineral County Fair and Recreation Tourism Committee announces details of the 2008 summer activity plans for the Nevada Department of Tourism program. The list of planned events focuses on family activities and includes concerts, plays, carnivals, park and rodeo events together in a Country Fair setting with arts, crafts and food vendors available to all. Rodeo events will include team roping and barrel racing, so get your mounts ready and your buckles polished, your 15 minutes of fame awaits. Some special concerts will be here at the Hawthorne U.S.O. Building that opened in January 1942 just as the United States entered World War II. Through out the war years, the Hawthorne U.S.O. fulfi lled the mission of the organization which was “to be a home away from home” for USA service men and war workers. The Hawthorne U.S.O. Building was constructed expressly for that purpose, as larger numbers of men and women were sent to small towns in America and Hawthorne, Nevada was one of the small towns. The U.S.O. was assisted by a variety of local clubs and organizations, including the YMCA, YWCA, SALVATION ARMY, CATHOLIC WELFARE, JEWISH WELFARE and TRAVELER’S AID to name a few. Different organizations were assigned by the regional offi ce in San Francisco to service different areas with their workers and programs. Nevada had Catholic Welfare in charge of the U.S.O. in Reno, Las Vegas and Hawthorne. The U.S.O. was to serve on and off duty military men and women with their “home away from home” and also provided theatrical performances called “Camp Shows” which were given in the camps and in USO’s around the country. In Hawthorne, a special extension of the USO was opened in the Babbitt Community Center for black service men and woman. The Department of Parks and Recreation activities are planned throughout the year and each will be announced in the local media. Look for the posters and further details in the Independent News, on the Hawthorne-Live website www.hawthornelive.com and local radio stations. Interested vendors and performers may contact committee members for participating instructions and requirements. The committee is comprised of volunteers and employees of Mineral County all under the direction of Mr. Don Orndorff, Director of Parks and Recreation for Mineral County. The committee has recently opened and offi ce in the Convention Center and visitors are invited to see the planning operations center in action Tuesday or Thursday afternoon, 1PM to 4PM. Citizens who wish to join the Tourism Committee may contact or call 958-5854. In addition, the Convention Center has been designated as a historical site and new plaque is near the front door. Interest parties are also invited to contact committee members Mike McNeil, Maggie Mandeville or Lou Warner for additional information.
