It’s time to get reading with the Carson City Library’s Summer Reading Challenge kicking off Saturday, June 8 from 12 to 4 p.m. at the Carson City Library, located at 900 N. Roop St. in Carson City.

The theme, “Travel Through Time,” encourages participants to embark on a literary adventure by logging reading hours and following along through different eras with a host of exciting events and activities scheduled. The challenge is open to all ages, from children to adults.

Celebrate the Fourth of July at the Fourth Ward. Experience spectacular views of the official Virginia City fireworks show from our beautiful historic balcony and attic. This rare opportunity to sit on our balcony or look out our fourth-story windows will create memories for years to come. These areas are usually not open to the public.

Ride with us back to those golden days of yesteryear when Ben, Adam, Hoss and Little Joe stood for honesty, decency, and owned about 1/3 of the Lake Tahoe Basin (at least on their television program).

Jersey Mike’s Subs, known for its fresh sliced/fresh grilled subs, will open at 956 Topsy Lane in Carson City on June 12.
