On June 8, 1859, the first major discovery of silver and gold ore in the US was made under what is now Virginia City, Nevada. This discovery was named the "Comstock Lode" and in its peak production year of 1877, produced over $14,000,000 of gold and $21,000,000 of silver ($270 million and $400 million adjusted for inflation as of 2007). Nevada became known as the "Silver State" primarily because of the silver found in the Comstock Lode.
As we continue to build our club traditions, the SMGA board has been searching for a suitable theme for our Men's Member-Guest tournament and we have agreed to name the 2010 tournament the "Comstock Cup" in honor of our Nevada heritage. Each of the past tournaments have been great events, but this year, with the support and participation of the SMGA, we plan to have our best event ever.
