Bowers Mansion is a well-known site for summer picnics and swimming. But do you know the woman behind the name? Eilley Bowers built more than just a mansion tucked away on the eastern foothills of Washoe County, and no one knows her story better than Washoe County’s curator and top tour guide at Bowers Mansion, Tammy Buzick. Tammy tells us the tales of Eilley's life and legacy in this episode’s tribute to Women’s History Month.
