Wednesday, Dec. 6: Things to do in Carson City
The weekend is coming and bringing with it the annual Silver Saddle Ranch Open House, the Methodist Church’s Drive-Through Living Nativity, the return of the Railroad Museum’s Santa Train, and the ninth annual Santa Crawl in Gardnerville, just to whet your appetite. Holiday shopping doesn’t need to be left until the weekends; you’ll find some one-of-a-kind offerings every day at the Carson Mall during their Craft Fair. Are you dreaming of a white Christmas? Galaxy Theater has brought the Bing Crosby classic to the big screen for two showings today.
