This year, for those who can't make it down to the parade route on Saturday for the Nevada Day Parade, don't fret: you won't miss the action!

A livestream of the parade will be taking place from beginning to end on the Nevada Day Facebook page.

Thirty-five years running. We are excited and thankful, as always, to put on one of our signature races and be part of the Nevada Day weekend. This is a classic road course through the streets of west Carson City. Costumes are HIGHLY encouraged.

This year's theme is Home Means Nevada so be creative and be part of the fun. An annual event since 1989, the Nevada Day Classic is an 8K run and a 2-mile run/walk that kicks off Nevada Day and sends runners/walkers through the beautiful, historic West Side of Carson City and a finish down the main drag with spectators lining the way.

When Diego Fuentez first moved to Reno to attend the University of Nevada in 2017, he had never really heard of the Nevada Day Parade.

He had been living in Vegas prior to his move to the north, and was impressed by the university’s diverse opportunities in music.

He joined the marching band, and experienced the Nevada Day Parade firsthand without realizing the scope of the day.

“I thought, wow, this is extremely cool,” Fuentez said. “I was able to do it once, but it made a lasting impression.”

Douglas County parents, teachers, and staff have made their opinions known about the much beloved Superintendent Keith Lewis. Hours of public comment at several board meetings have supported Lewis who found himself at odds with the new members of the board and the new legal counsel for the district.
