annual grassroots music

The Indie Music Fest is also, making
a major effort in the attempt to

Sunset
Park, one of the largest parks in
Las Vegas, is located near McCarran
Airport in the southeast part of
town. The park is bordered by Sunset
Road on the north, Eastern Avenue on
the west and Warm Springs Road on
the south. Accumulation of the land
for the park began in 1909, when it
became the Miller Ranch. It later
became the Vegas Stock Farm, which
trained and raced Thoroughbred
racehorses. Clark County, Nevada
acquired the property in 1967 and
turned it into a park. Sunset Park
Pond is around 14 acres (57,000 m2)
in surface area and 10 to 12 feet
(3.7 m) deep. It is home to various
species of water fowl and fish. A
distinct feature is small island in
the middle of the pond where several
Easter Island heads sit.
