Batons of Liberty Travel Through Nevada | Reno News

A historic Declaration of Independence replica made a stop in Carson City as part of a nationwide relay celebrating America’s 250th anniversary, carried by symbolic batons for life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Each day, different citizens carry the batons, turning the journey into a shared tribute to the nation’s founding ideals. Participants in Nevada hope the event fosters unity amid division, while also spotlighting the state’s public lands and its role on the American Discovery Trail — a rare 16-state route.
