This year, 2015 marks the 30th year that Nevada Rural Counties Retired Senior Volunteer Program, also known as RSVP, hosts a Nevada Day Carnival at Mills Park in Carson City.
Kicking off the festivities will be “Family Night” on Thursday, Oct. 29 from 5 p.m. until 9 p.m. where all rides are $1 each courtesy of Carson-City Toyota Scion.
Then on Friday, Oct. 30, Saturday, Oct. 31 and Sunday, Nov. 1 the fair opens at noon and includes carnival rides and music as well as food booths and opportunities for holiday shopping with great craft vendors. All day ride wristbands are $30 but visit the RSVP booth at Mills Park for a $5 off coupon.
You may pre-purchase advance all-day wristbands for $20 starting now and until noon on Oct. 29 at Carson-City Toyota Scion 2590 S. Carson Street.
Our “Days of Service” event will feature United Blood Service Blood Drive on Saturday, Oct. 31 from 1 to 5 p.m., Find the Hero in You – Donate Blood. One pint of blood can be used to save three people. Walk-ins are welcome. If you are able to donate blood please do so.
On Sunday, Nov. 1 from 1-3 p.m., the Nevada Humane Society will offer free identification chips. Owners must take their pets directly to the tent and return back to their vehicle after receiving their identification chips. Animals are not allowed in Mills Park. Cats must be in carriers and dogs must be on leash. Please do not leave your pets unattended in your car.
A list of all our “Days of Service” participants is available on the RSVP website and includes a FISH canned food drive and many other wonderful service organizations. We have some fun surprises in store as we have a DJ on Saturday and Sunday as well as a barbershop choir who will perform on Sunday at 3:00pm.
All proceeds assist seniors to help them remain independent and in their own homes with dignity. For more information about this event contact RSVP Special Events Coordinator, Anita Moreno at 775-687-4680 ext 110 or visit our website at www.nevadaruralsrsvp.org.
