What's happening around Carson City on Saturday, Oct. 13

The thunderous roar of jet engines will rumble across the skies above Carson City and the Carson Valley this weekend as the famed U.S. Navy Blue Angels flight team headlines the 2018 Aviation Roundup at the Minden-Tahoe Airport.

But there is plenty more to do in the area besides keeping your eyes to the skies for that legendary navy blue streak.

Carson City is the site of multiple fall festivals Saturday, including the annual Seeliger Elementary Pumpkin Patch, the Fall Scarecrow Festival at the Carson Mall, as well as the third annual Trunk N Treat.

Two names will also be added to the Nevada Firefighters Memorial Saturday morning in a somber ceremony attended by multiple firefighting agencies across Nevada, including the Carson City Fire Department.
