Activities or mission (Part I)

The mission of Friends of Dangberg Home Ranch is to protect and share the resources of the Dangberg Home Ranch Historic Park to promote understanding of Carson Valley's agricultural history and provide arts and cultural opportunities as a public park.

  • Historic Restoration, Preservation, and Maintenance. Much of the work conducted by Friends of Dangberg is focused on the restoration and long-term maintenance of the park's historic grounds and structures. In 2024-25, the major project, with an expense of $68,000, supported Douglas County's work repairing the foundations of the historic ranch house. A small storage shed was also purchased to support maintenance, and small repairs throughout the park were funded.

    Expenses $83,295

  • Cultural Programming. Each spring-summer, Friends of Dangberg organizes a series of public arts and culture events for presentation at the historic park. In tax year 2024-25, there were 30 of these events, including four music concerts, fourteen Chautauqua portrayals, a Chautauqua workshop, and ten author/historian presentations, with 2,018 people attending. The objective is to provide audiences with a variety of cultural experiences that include performing arts and humanities presentations.

    Expenses $47,532 · Revenue $14,265

  • Education Programs.

In addition, staff made several in-school presentations focused on local history and living history portrayals (Chautauqua).
