May 25, 2017 (All day)
You’re almost there. The long weekend is just around the corner, and everywhere I go I hear of camping trips and bbq plans. As the weather heats up, Muscle Powered compensates by moving their easy hike to the cooler hours of the morning. Chef Mitchell Tufts has found a new home at the new Cadillac Café at the Silver Oak Golf Course: the Grand Opening is at noon. Author and journalist, David Toll, tells the tale of the defunct newspaper, The Gold Hill News, at this month’s lecture at the Nevada State Museum. Head to Café at Adele’s for breakfast, lunch, or dinner and they’ll donate a portion of your check to the Nevada Humane Society. Keep reading for all of today’s things to do.
