Welcome To Henderson Nevada!

Just minutes away from the neon and glitter of the Las Vegas strip sits a city that is no stranger to the Fireball Run. Back in 2007, the inaugural rally paid a visit, and in 2010 we are glad to be back in Henderson, Nevada.

One look and you’ll see a community that enjoys small town values while benefitting from big city efficiencies. Residents of Henderson enjoy some of the best of what the state has to offer, from Nevada’s largest commercial corridor to its largest recreational facility and even the largest outdoor amphitheater.

In 2006, Money magazine ranked Henderson 20th on its list of the top 100 places to live in the U.S. Prevention magazine also named Henderson the 6th best walking city in America, a testament to the 37 miles of trails that can be found. You may have even heard Henderson mentioned on the popular TV drama, CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, or seen locales in the James Bond film Diamonds are Forever or the movie America’s Sweethearts. The city has even been home to the house from The Simpsons! Henderson is also located near the Las Vegas Motor Speedway, a stop on the NASCAR Cup Series.

There’s more to the state of Nevada than just Las Vegas, and after one trip here you’ll see for yourself. This is Henderson, and The American Heroes Challenge starts here.
