What to do on this wet, winter Wednesday

It’s just unfortunate timing that today has been designated ‘Nevada Moves Day.’ With the heavy rain, it may not be the best time to try your hand at walking or biking to school. A break in the storm this afternoon will make for an easier trek home, but you can always take up the challenge after Spring break next week. The annual Father-Daughter Dance at Carson High is fast approaching, and today is your last chance for in-person ticket sales. Head to the Carson High office between 2 p.m. and 4 p.m. if you’ve got cash in hand. Don’t worry if you can’t make it though, online ticket sales are still going strong. Stay safe out there, Carson City. Flooding isn’t expected, but around here, just about anything can happen.
