Reno er stedet for denne runde, og bolden bevæger sig gennem byens gader. Banen bruger rigtige seværdigheder i byen til hullerne, startende ved Mackay Stadium. En hel runde med 18 huller dækker 6,7 miles med en par på 54. Skip er den lokale guide, fordi han har tilbragt meget tid i byen. Bolden følger byens layout for at nå hvert enkelt vartegn.
Du kan vælge den åbne luft i denne udendørs atletiske stadion beliggende på University of Nevada-campus i Reno. Den er kendt som Mackay Stadium, opkaldt til ære for Mackay-familien. Stedet er hjemmebane for Nevada Wolf Pack-fodbold og kvindefodbold i Mountain West Conference. Det originale stadion blev bygget i 1909 takket være midler doneret af John William Mackay og hans søn Clarence H. Mackay. Jeg har set masser af jublende menneskemængder fra tribunerne her.
Let me show you the Lawlor Events Center. It is named after Jake Lawlor, who was a former athletic director as well as a coach for baseball, basketball, and football. This arena sits on the University of Nevada, Reno campus at the intersection of North Virginia Street and 15th Street. It is northern Nevada's largest multi-purpose arena. I usually see plenty of excited crowds heading inside for big events, though I personally prefer the view from the rafters where the air is clearer. It is a great spot to see how the university integrates its athletic facilities into the city.
The National Automobile Museum is an automobile museum located in Reno, Nevada. It is a significant stop for any visitor interested in automotive history, as most of the vehicles on display come from the collection of William F. Harrah. I've seen plenty of shiny things in this city, but the polish on these cars is something else. The museum opened on November 5, 1989, and continues to house an impressive array of cars for the public to enjoy. It is a great place to stretch your legs and admire some mechanical art.
You might expect Reno to be all about the casinos, but let me show you the Nevada Museum of Art. This is the only AAM accredited art museum in the state. It is a nonprofit organization that was founded in 1931. If you visit the building designed by architect Will Bruder, you will see a space that continues to grow. In 2024, the museum began construction on a 50,000 square foot expansion, which fully opened in August 2025. I've seen a lot of things from the air, but this place is a real standout at 160 West Liberty Street.
Bruka Theatre, grundlagt i 1992, er et teaterselskab og en bygning med base i Reno. Siden starten er det vokset og er blevet et af de vigtigste live-teatre i det nordlige Nevada. Når du besøger bygningen, kan du bemærke, at navnet er afledt af Die Brücke, som var en tysk ekspressionistisk kunstnergruppe. Jeg har altid syntes, at forbindelsen til ekspressionismen er et passende element for et sted, der er dedikeret til scenen. Det er et fantastisk sted at se, hvordan den lokale kunstscene har udviklet sig gennem årene.
Beliggende i Reno, Nevada, er Pioneer Center et center for scenekunst designet i stil med moderne arkitektur. Det er et sted, der er optaget på National Register of Historic Places, og som blev færdiggjort i 1967. Når du ser på siddepladserne, kan du se hovedniveauet med 987 siddepladser og en balkon med 513 siddepladser. Jeg har bemærket, at indretningen giver et fantastisk udsyn til scenen næsten hvor som helst i salen. Det er et fremtrædende sted i byen for dem, der nyder kunsten.
The Greek Revival architecture style is the first thing you notice at Saint Thomas Aquinas Cathedral. Located at 310 W. 2nd Street, this Catholic cathedral was started in 1908. Though it is a National Register of Historic Places contributing property today, a fire nearly destroyed the building in 1909. The cathedral complex was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2022. It is the mother church of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Reno, Nevada, United States, and remains a central point of faith in the community.
