Wednesday, Dec. 30: Things to do in Carson City
Are you ready for tomorrow? New Year’s parties can be found where ever you go; check out a complete list here. No point in wasting today while waiting for the ball to drop, though. Plenty of fun to go around whether you’re in the mood for live music, dancing, or karaoke. This afternoon sees the grand opening of Carson City’s new Multi-purpose Athletic Center, affectionately called ‘MAC.’ Ground broke on the 33,418 square foot building on Feb. 26 of this year, and the building features two collegiate basketball courts and an elevated running/walking track.
