Medina As part of American Archives Month, the Nevada State Archives unveiled an exhibit highlighting the Nevada Division of Forestry’s (NDF) essential role in protecting and managing Nevada’s lands. The exhibit opened to the public Oct. 1 and will run through Dec. 31 at the Nevada State Archives in Carson City. The exhibit compiles 60 historical documents and photographs dating back to 1931. Included also are numerous guides and objects used by foresters and wildland fire fighters in the field, as well as memorabilia. “All Nevadans and anyone staying in Carson City are welcome to visit the exhibit,” said Mike Strom, Administrator for the Nevada State Library, Archives & Public Records. “We’re excited to highlight the important work of the Division of Forestry by showcasing these historical documents from the Archives.” “Exhibits like this help us educate people about the importance of forestry and fire prevention in our state,” said Kacey KC, Nevada State Forester Firewarden. “We thank the Nevada State Archives for helping to preserve and share NDF’s history with these documents that celebrate nearly 100 years of efforts to protect and improve Nevada’s forests, rangelands, and watersheds.” Materials will be displayed online and in person at the Nevada State Archives, located at 100 N. Stewart St. The Archives is open to the public from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., Monday through Friday.
