History lecture and slideshow 'Going for the Gold: Lake Tahoe and the Olympics'
On Thursday Nov. 30 at 7 p.m., the historic Gold Hill Hotel, continues its History series with a 50 minute slide show, “Going for the Gold-Lake Tahoe and the Olympics."
Alex Cushing and the State of California brought the 1960 Winter Olympics to the Lake Tahoe area. Walt Disney brought the Olympics to the World. From hosting the first Olympics that truly utilized modern technology, to creating a world class Olympic training facility deep in the Sierra Nevada Forest, the Lake Tahoe region has played an important role in America’s success in both the Summer and Winter Olympics for generations.
The cost is $10 per person and you can come early and enjoy dinner in the Crown Point Restaurant at Gold Hill Hotel, 1540 S Main St, Virginia City.
