Carson City Parks, Recreation and Open Space Department invites the community to an evening of family fun at the 8th Annual Carson City BOOnanza event this Thursday, Oct. 24, from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. at Mills Park, 1111 E. William St.

Dress up in costume and trick-or-treat at decorated booths along the meandering paths. Train rides will be free during the event. Various booths offer free activities and games, food and beverage vendors have tasty treats for purchase, and, of course, there will be loads of free candy.

Sponsored by Southwest Gas, United Rentals, Quick Space, Nevada Health Link, Carson City Toyota, and PCC Structurals—BOOnanza is good old-fashioned Halloween fun.
