ALWAYS AN ATTRACTION....The old wooden sidewalk on upper Main St. aes : xe is always an attraction to tourists. When it is combined with the fall coloring of these and other trees, Nevada City. it becomes even more of an asset to How Did ‘Spectacular’ Begin : The Fall Spectacular? How did it begin? Three years ago, Sunset Magazine featured the spectacular Fali of the Sierra Nevada range, centering its lengthy article in Nevada City. Long aware of the beauty of Fall, local residents that year became aware that numerous residents of other areas in California did not yet realize that colors such as are on display here can be seen in California. Sunset Magazine made them aware, and thousands of Sunset readers toured the area in late October and November. Nevada City Chamber of Commerce members noted that these visitors came as a result of publicity freely given by Sunset Magazine, and the chamber's directors decidedto formalize the annual change of season and make sure that others heard of the event. Last year was the first such. ? chamber promotion of the Fall Spectacular, although a number of years before the chamber had also publicized the seasonal change. This year the Nevada City Chamber of Com merce was undergoing an orgahizational shakeup at the time when plans needed to be implemented for the 1963 Fall Spectacular. The Nevada County Nugget volunteered to proceed with the printing of publicity sheets. ‘EVER GREEN ...Green trees remain throughout the year, even as Nevada County celebrates the coming of Fall, as these Cedars exhibit in a nearby “back yard". ‘ AREA RESIDENTS SHOW COLORFUL COUNTY ASSET Pride of ownership is evident in Nevada County each Fall. Localresidents claimtitle to the annual spectacular coloring of the Sierra hillsides, and they share their enthusiasm with the largest extended influx of guests that the county boasts. It is the rare local resident that hasn't a full house each weekend during Nature's spectacular exhibit of colors, and it is the rare visitor who sees and fails to vow to return---for another Fall or frequently “as soon as I can afford to move here" Fall, is only one among many as a season, reasons why newcomers are making their homes in: Nevada County. But Fall is a visual experience, one that can be shared.
