No need to wait for black Friday or Small Business Saturday to get a jump on your holiday shopping. Western Nevada College’s annual Craft Fair is today, as is Santa’s Village at the Carson City Senior Center. Support local artists and crafters while finding a one of a kind gift for your loved ones. If you have a book-lover on your list, a book signed by local author Ken Beaton is easy to acquire. Browser’s Corner is holding a meet and greet with him this evening.

THURSDAY:

In the 1990s, I was the coordinator of the University of Nevada Cooperative Extension Master Gardener program for four counties. Volunteers signed up for 45 hours of horticulture classes in exchange for a fee and 45 hours of volunteering.

I had one very dedicated volunteer, Michael Janik, now of Michaels Apples, who went on to become a leader in Northern Nevada in raising, training and pruning apples and other fruits.

Happy Friday, Carson City! I am once again pleased to bring you the event list that is featured on my Facebook page, I love Carson City. I follow the pages of local businesses and organizations, search website calendars, and compile a list of anything and everything going on in this community weekly. Some of it is family friendly, some is just for adults, but all of it is nearby.

Riverview Park is located at the end of East 5th Street, next to the Korean War Memorial. There is parking and facilities to accommodate the whole family.

I first saw a Smart Car in Paris. We were visiting my daughter who was studying abroad in the Fall of 2004. My wife took a photo of me standing behind the uber compact with my arms stretching from bumper to bumper. The design and size were like nothing I had seen in an automobile; it was very Euro.

Every year the Carson City Shade Tree Council presents a different topic and educates the professional and the amateur alike about trees and their environment. This year's seminar is packed with speakers not to miss. Catered breakfast from LA Bakery and lunch at the Carson City High School Greenhouse (following a tour), catered by the students at the Culinary Arts Program is included for the all day seminar for $75.

The Community Center is located at 851 East William Street in Carson City.

CARSON CITY – If a $490,000 grant to plant trees in Clark County public places as part of a federal job-creating stimulus project should be measured by the “greening” of Southern Nevada, then the effort might be considered a modest success.
Thirteen different government and nonprofit entities applied for 1,814 trees for planting at 35 different public areas in Southern Nevada through the grant. A total of 1,541 trees have been provided to the agencies and groups for planting, mostly at schools and parks around the Vegas valley.

Tom Henderson will conduct a walking tour of remarkable trees on Saturday, May 7, beginning at 10 a.m. at Bordewich-Bray School. This stroll along King Street will include several Nevada Champion trees, the largest of its species recorded in the state.
Mr Henderson will point out several distinctive trees proximate to King Street which he recommends for planting in our climate. This informative tour will pause at several trees to review their particular characteristics and to provide broader perspectives on the benefits of an urban forest.

The Carson City Shade Tree Council will host its annual Arbor Day Celebration. The hour-long celebration will be held at Governors’ Field (behind Lowe’s). Among those attending will be Smokey Bear who will help the Council plant the Northern Red Maple selected by the staff of Carson City’s Park and Recreation Department.
