March 22, 2016 (All day)
I love Carson City. Our history is just one of the reasons, and you can learn more about it yourself today with the Parks and Recreation Easy Walk. Meet at the Capitol building at 9 a.m. and you’ll enjoy an hour of wandering down memory lane in our Historic East Side. The annual Father-Daughter Dance at Carson High is quickly approaching and ticket sales are suspended during spring break, so you’ll want to grab them today or tomorrow. If you’ve ever wondered ‘Why Should I Like Shakespeare? then the workshop this evening at the Carson Library is for you.
