Wednesday July 22: Things to do in Carson City

“I’ll take ‘Good Times in Carson City’ for 200, Alex”. It’s a great day for music in Carson City. Check out the Jazz Jam at Sassafras or bring an instrument to the Jam with Josh and Janera at the Firkin and Fox. Glen Eagles features Terri and Craig in the lounge for some tunes, and you’ll find Lynne and Mick at Living the Good Life for dinner entertainment. Kick up your cowboy boots at Line Dancing lessons in the Eleventh Frame Lounge at Carson Lanes. “What are things you’ll find today on my to-do list, birthday boy?”
