I Love Carson City’s Weekend Event Summary: July 21 - 22
Submitted by Danielle Cook on Fri, 07/20/2018 - 5:33pmI have long found it impossible to decide which Carson City event is my favorite: forever waffling between Nevada Day and the Taste of Downtown. Seeing as the annual parade is still months away, I’m going to side with ‘The Taste’ purely for its timeliness. With over forty local eateries participating, multiple raffles at downtown shops, and seven bands rocking every corner of the event, it’s practically impossible to have a bad time. This might be the biggest happening in town, but it’s by no means the only good time: read on for all this weekend’s options.
SATURDAY:
Carson City Ghost Walk
Submitted by Carson Now Reader on Wed, 05/30/2018 - 11:50amThis is the 26th season of the Carson City Ghost Walk. The
evenings are a delightfully spooky and enjoyable way to
experience Carson City’s Victorian Era and diverse history.
Hear about lingering spirits of the long ago centuries, haunted
and paranormal stories and gossip from the past. This is a
spirit lead, guided walking tour of the downtown district’s west
side historic homes and businesses.
These scheduled tours leave rain or shine. Please arrive at
least 10 minutes before the walk begins. Dress for the weather
and for the walk. Bring a light source if we lose daylight.

Belly laughs can be found at Carson Comedy inside the Carson Nugget on Fridays and Saturdays. A Father-daughter dance at the High School in Dayton is sure to thrill some little princesses.
