Tuesday, Dec. 27: Things to do in Carson City
When it comes to history, the west side of Carson City gets most the attention. Learn what makes the east side unique on the Parks and Recreation Easy Walk at 9 a.m. Galaxy Theater offers a special movie rate on Tuesdays if you’ve got a rewards card: grab the kids and take in a winter break movie. The Old Corner Bar in Minden welcomes the return of the Flash Jam, so grab your instrument and get your groove on. If being active is on your resolution list, you can’t go wrong with Muscle Powered: their hike today is along the Ormsby Fire Road, but on Thursday there will be an easier one along the Empire Ranch Trail.
