There will be a celebration for Reno's sesquicentennial birthday on Wednesday, May 9 at Greater Nevada Field.

The event starts at 4 p.m. and gates will open at 5 p.m.

“Our year-long Reno 150 campaign will culminate with this special community gathering in downtown,” said At-Large Reno City Councilmember David Bobzien, who spearheaded Reno 150. “This is a milestone moment for our great city, and a chance for us to come together and appreciate how far we’ve come since our founding in 1868.”

The Aces will be wearing commemorative jerseys for the occasion and the jerseys will be auctioned during the game, with proceeds going to a local charity.
