Wednesday, July 29: Things to do in Carson City
Just a few last days to celebrate National Anti-Boredom Month, and you’re in the right place! Start with a relaxing soak at the Carson Hot Springs. Head over to Comma Coffee for some Americana blues with Dave Leather. Rack ‘em up at the Ormsby Club, or congratulate Tahoe Ridge Winery at their ribbon cutting. Jazz fans can head to Sassafras for dinner and music. The outdoor patio at Firkin and Fox is the perfect place to listen to music and enjoy a locally crafted beer. Show off your knowledge at Lake Tahoe Brewery’s ‘Geeks Who Drink’ trivia night. You won’t have time to be bored!
