I was at Heritage Park to attend the annual "Burgers and Badges" event. Besides the free burgers, hot dogs, chips, and soft drinks, this was also a well attended open house featuring various DCSO equipment, services and staff (including the Sherriff himself). I also enjoyed the horses, the large open spaces, and the shade on this very hot late afternoon.
Heritage Park was originally the sports field for the old Gardnerville High School. The park features a covered stage, rest rooms, and plenty of space for children to play. If you're on US 395 and heading to South Gardnerville, turn left at the light at Sharkey's on one corner and Overland on another. The park is on your left about a block down. read more
