Camp Clark was a short-lived U.S. Army encampment set up in August 1898 at Treadway Park on the northwest side of Carson City, Nevada, during the Spanish-American War. Named for Captain Charles Edgar Clark of the USS Oregon, it served as the mustering site for the 1st Nevada Volunteer Infantry after troops shifted from nearby Camp Sadler. The camp was abandoned by late October 1898, leaving no significant structures on the site. ^ Date: 1898-99 Country (if not USA): State: Nevada City: Provenance: Douglas McDonald Collection
