The proceeds from the auction will help support USTA-Nevada programming, including junior programs in schools.

The Master of Ceremonies for the annual Ladies Luncheon was Ryan Wolfington, Executive Director of the USTA/Nevada Tennis Association.

During the 1950's, the property now occupied by The Las Vegas Country Club was the site of a thoroughbred racetrack named Las Vegas Downs. When the racetrack went into bankruptcy, the property was purchased by an investor named Joe W. Brown.
Brown later sold it to Marvin Kratter of Nevada Equities who proceeded to build the country club. The golf course was completed in the fall of 1967, followed by the completion of the clubhouse in April of 1968. Mr. Kratter opened it under the name of The Las Vegas International Country Club and operated it as such until he sold it to a Strip hotel named the Bonanza. The club was renamed The Bonanza Country Club and Corral. In late 1970, it was sold to four partners of Realty Holdings (Moe Dalitz, Harry Lahr, Nate Adelson and Irwin Molasky) who renamed it The Las Vegas Country Club, and made it a private country club in July of 1971 eventually making the club a true equity membership Club that has operated as such to this date.
