The Carson High School Bowling Team fell off of its pedestal last year for the first time in 12 years. The team, which have been champions every year since its inception in 2000-2001, lost by one pin to the Reed High School Bowling Team in early 2012.

Now, coaches Vern Barnes, Kevin Costa, and David Lethcoe are looking to get the team back up on that championship track. The Carson team has a great mixture of veterans and new faces on the roster to steer this team back into the winners circle.

CARSON CITY – The Nevada State Democratic Party today said Gov. Brian Sandoval should immediately disclose state agency budget requests to the Legislature and public.

Some state lawmakers expressed concern at an Interim Finance Committee meeting in October that the Sandoval administration had not provided them with information about state agency requests over and above their base budget requests, known as “items for special consideration.”

Come witness the night of Christ’s birth. Feel the true message of Christmas through a Drive-Through, Living Nativity. Lit by 800 luminaria, ten scenes depict The Road to Bethlehem. Walkers enjoy the story from a special walking path. Nearly 200 people of all ages are involved in telling the story, along with donkeys, cows and sheep. In our world of uncertainty, this message of hope and abiding love is our gift to the community. The Living Nativity will be Saturday and Sunday, Dec. 8 and 9, 6:30-8pm. No fees are charged, though canned food is collected for those in need.

The state of Nevada will introduce a new “brand” in the spring that will include a marketing campaign to help boost tourism and economic development, Gov. Brian Sandoval told an audience at the Governor’s Conference on Tourism on Tuesday at John Ascuaga’s Nugget in Sparks.

Other tourism officials said the brand will include a new statewide slogan and logo. Tourism officials said the campaign to roll out Nevada’s new brand has been in the works for more than a year.
