Dr. Ben Carson to Attend the Inaugural Basque Fry in Gardnerville
After an impressive performance at the first Republican Presidential Candidates' Debate, Dr. Carson will join a handful of other candidates at a Basque-style barbecue open to the public at the Corley Ranch in Gardnerville on Aug. 15.
The barbecue continues the tradition of Nevada Attorney General Adam Laxalt's grandfather, Paul Laxalt, who hosted similar barbecues with political figures both as a governor and senator.
One week later on Aug. 22, Dr. Carson will join other Republican candidates at a candidate forum and straw polling event called the "First in the West Presidential Roundup" at Harveys Lake Tahoe Casino. Organizers for both events say they are pleased to give Nevadans more opportunities to interact with the presidential candidates.
