Dangberg Talk and Ranch Tour
Thursday, July 30, 2009
Saturday, August 2, 2009

Carson City, Nev. The Carson City Historical Society is presenting two events for its members and the public regarding H. F. Dangberg, Sr. and his Ranch House (pictured at left).

On Thursday, July 30, 2009, Dr. Michael E. Fischer, Nevada Department of Cultural Affairs Director, will make a presentation as H. F. Dangberg, Sr. at the Carson Public Library, 900 N. Roop Street, starting at 6:30 p.m. This talk is free and open to the public. Mr. Fischer is a talented speaker, and this event should be quite entertaining.

On Sunday, August 2, 2009, at 2:00 p.m., a tour of the Dangberg Ranch House will be given. The house is completely furnished, and it seems as though the family just stepped outside. Advanced reservations are required. Reservations are limited to 30 people and cost $3 for each person.

Dr. Michael E. Fischer, a native Nevadan, has served as the Director of the Nevada Department of Cultural Affairs since January 2007. Dr. Fischer has been a long time supporter of cultural programming. An active Chautauquan, he portrays both John Sparks and H. F. Dangberg, Sr. He is developing a performance of Nick Abelman, early Nevada gambler.

To make tour reservations please call Paula at 775-887-8865. Since the tour is limited to 30 people, it is recommended to make reservations early. For information on either even, call 775-887-8865.
