The Record-Courier
VerifiedNewspaper
The Record-Courier is a three times a week newspaper located in Gardnerville, Nevada. It has its origins in The Carson Valley News founded in Genoa, Nevada, in 1875 by A.C. Pratt. The newspaper was renamed The Genoa Courier in 1880 and merged that year with The Genoa Journal. It merged with The Gardnerville Record in 1904 to form The Record-Courier. It is one of the oldest continuously published nameplates in Nevada. It was purchased by Swift Communications in 1988. The Record-Courier covers Carson Valley, located in Douglas County, Alpine County (California), and Mono County (California) in the eastern Sierra Nevada. An original woodcut of the Carson Range as it rises above Carson Valley produced by syndicated cartoonist Lew Hymers in 1928 appears in the banner. Source

Genoa, Nev. — County commissioners winnowed the number of applicants they’ll interview for the stormwater utility task force to around 25 from the 54 who originally sought a seat. East Valley resident Brad Hollander withdrew his application. Annexation of nearly 150 acres of the Park Ranch Neighborhood No. 1 was approved by commissioners on Thursday. The 324-unit subdivision will be located between the Douglas County Justice Center and Minden Elementary along Buckeye Road.
James caps off track career at NCAA Nationals
Last August, I wrote about track athlete Jessica James’ pursuit of making it to the 2026 NCAA DII Nationals during her final year of competitive running at Cal Poly-Pomona. James was born and raised in Gardnerville, and I’ve known her since she was in kindergarten. It’s wonderful to share that she did, indeed, qualify for the NCAA Track National Championship at Emporia State University in Kansas.

Genoa, Nev. — It doesn’t appear that there will be any difficulty coming up with members of committees to write pro and con arguments for an advisory question separating the clerk and treasurer’s office, according to the applications posted to county commissioners' agenda. County commissioners are also scheduled to discuss choosing members of a stormwater utility task force today. With around 50 applicants and at most nine positions and probably closer to five, that should keep them busy today.

Share this: | Facebook | X Doesn’t have to come from a cow Editor: While the article about using grass seeds and cattle to rid the range of cheat grass was interesting, I couldn’t help chuckle at all the expensive academic rigmarole involved in this project. From my perspective as a lover of wild horses, it appears to be yet another argument to put cattle on the range and remove horses.
Clerk-treasurer office split comes with pros & cons
The 1887 Legislature consolidated the offices of clerk and treasurer for counties who had 400-500 votes cast in the 1886 election. Legislators also united the elected offices of district attorney and superintendent of schools, substantially reducing the number of constitutional officers elected in the 1888 election. The only input the 416 Douglas County voters who cast a ballot 140 years ago had in the change was that there were 17 too many of them to avoid it.
