Zombie Paintball returns to Andelin Family Farms this October

Big trees inspire me. In part, it’s their age, but it’s also their size. I was in Agate Bay at Lake Tahoe recently staying with a friend. Outside the back door is one of the biggest Jeffrey pines I have seen. It’s massive and regal.

Recent and regular reports of wild horses along East College Parkway in Carson City have prompted the Carson City Sheriff's Office to organize a herding operation set for Sunday.

Please join us on Feb. 9 at 10 a.m. for the ninth annual Carson High Safe Grad Safe & Sober 5K Run/Walk.

This event is organized by volunteers of the Carson High Safe Grad Booster and will be held, once again, at the Carson High School Track-Field.

CASA of Carson City is looking to expand its volunteer base. There are thousands of children in the State of Nevada residing in foster care currently. These children have been removed from their homes, their friends and they need a strong advocate to stand up for them and express their wishes.

Let's hear it for the first weekend of the new year, because it won't happen again for another 12 months.

The first weekend of 2019 also means the first Saturday of the month, which is the day of the Downtown Business Association Monthly Wine Walk in downtown Carson City, come rain, snow, wind or shine.

That's a good thing, too, because this weekend will likely have all of that.

It was alleged today that Carson City's Waste Management has policies that are causing a trash build-up on Telegraph Square, but Waste Management Representative Kendra Kostelecky says that simply is not the case.

"For commercial businesses, we will come and take your trash every day of the week if that’s what you want,” said Kostelecky. “And we absolutely will provide businesses with as many bins as they want. We’re a business, we don’t have any policy that states we would only provide one bin to restaurants. In fact, we have many businesses that we do pick-ups for multiple times a week.”

Carson City Firefighters and Sheriff's deputies are on scene of a reported motor oil spill in the roadway at the intersection of North Saliman Road and East Robinson Street near Carson High School.

Crews on scene report three five-gallon jugs of oil were in the roadway.

The city is also responding with copious amounts of sand and a street sweeper to clean up the spill.

Motorists should avoid the area until the spill is cleaned up.

Three people were arrested in the area of Gordon and Brown streets for felony trafficking of methamphetamine, possession with intent to sell, two counts of possession of drug paraphernalia, and failure to stop at a stop sign, violation of parole and probation, and violation of Department of Alternative Sentencing.

A to Zen has been a Carson City staple for the past decade. While they’re mostly known for their assortment of vintage finds, their large record and book collection, handmade gifts, costumes, and what may be the largest collection of knick-knacks in Carson City, they’ve also been engaging in community activities for years.

On January 3, 2019 the Special Investigations Unit (SIU) of the Lyon County Sheriff's Office and the Tri-County Gang Unit arrested Lamont Ontario Williams in Dayton on a felony warrant for Level 3 Drug Trafficking. At the time of arrest, Williams was in possession of 15.3 grams of methamphetamine.

Is the Leisure Hour Club going to the dogs? On Wednesday, Jan. 16, members of the Leisure Hour Club will learn about the exploits of the Carson City K-9 Unit, even meeting some of its members — both human and dog.

Legend tells of a terrifying monster that is supposed to reside in the depths of Walker Lake who has been sighted for centuries. For years, Cecil even had his own float in the Nevada Day Parade.

The legend of Cecil seems to have been first written down in the early-to-mid 1800s, when Nevada was first being explored by white settlers looking to spread out and maybe try their hand at finding gold or homesteading.

CARSON CITY — Adventure has long been a part of Michelle Roberts’ life, from a two-year stint in the Peace Corps in southeast Africa to circumnavigating the globe during a “semester at sea” to study cultures in Southeast Asia to researching and eating insects.
