Get ready, the weekend is almost here and it brings with it the Way it Was Rodeo and Steampunk Ball to Virginia City, the Air Races to Reno, and the annual Edible Pedal bike ride through Washoe Valley. Before the weekend carries you away, enjoy our beautiful valley. Take in the views with Muscle Powered as they hike along Conestoga.
There are multiple ways to say farewell to summer this weekend. The Best in the West Rib Cook-off is a local favorite, as is the Fallon Cantaloupe Festival. It has finally cooled down a little, so the Downtown Carson Wine Walk is a perfect way to spend an afternoon. Keep reading and have a great time. SATURDAY:
Ride the Carson City Off-Road this summer at the second annual Epic Rides in Carson City. Pre-registration is underway, with full registration set to begin Jan. 1 and a special Carson City area community registration for local riders on Jan. 4, 2017.
Summer is in full blaze out there. Treat yourself to something cold at Dairy Queen; their Miracle Treat Day donates a dollar per Blizzard to the Miracle Children’s Hospitals. See what the talented kids of Strings in the Schools have been up to this summer at their free concert inside the Carson Mall.
Whoo-hoo for Wednesday. The week keeps plugging along and the temperatures are rising. Head to McFadden Plaza for this afternoon’s Farmers Market; they are almost over for the year. Keep close to downtown and take advantage of the Brewers Cabinet Tap Takeover of the Firkin and Fox. Grab the mic at SlotWorld’s karaoke night.
