We have one exciting weekend for you! Everything from smashing cars for a good cause, learning how to shoot a bow, or even sipping sarsaparilla at the saloon...you have to check out these events in this week's Things 2 Do!
If you love anything outdoors, hunting or even wildlife conservation, then you will want to flock to the Reno-Sparks Convention Center this weekend for the Wild Sheep Show! It features hundreds of exhibitors, entertainers and educational events, auctions, and even shopping for everything from trips to firearms.
"Really what it comes down to is you are going to see a lot of people that want to be in the outdoors and believe in wildlife," said Garrett Long with the Wild Sheep Foundation.
But this isn't just an adult event; parents can also take their kids to the Youth Wildlife Conservation Experience with 27 different fun and educational stations with everything from rock climbing to archery, and even a shooting gallery! It’s free for the kiddos, but parents get a sweet deal too.
“Parents, if they bring their kids here on Saturday, we can give them a day pass to get into sheep show for free as well, which is a great benefit for that, so it can be a whole day experience," said Ryan Brock with the Wild Sheep Foundation. For more information, you can click here.
Punk rockers love a good deal, too, and there's no better deal than the punk rock flea market this weekend at The Generator.
“We got 18 bands, 100 vendors, food trucks, and a bunch of DIY activities," said Aric Shapiro, Development Director for The Generator.
And one of those activities includes a fundraiser where you pay to smash a car! You can rock on down Saturday and Sunday for just $5! For more information, you can click here.
If you have a little too much at this saloon crawl, at least you can use the excuse "The Devil Made Me Do It!" Single, taken or not really sure--pick the color of your cup based on your answer and then fill it up with tasty beverages from local saloons in historic Virginia City! That's Saturday starting at 11:30 am! For more information, you can click here.
It’s time for an all-out smackdown! King of the Cage presents an evening of live MMA fights-featuring some of the sport’s most ferocious competitors in the future Legends Amateur Show! That’s Saturday at the Silver Legacy starting at 6! For more information, you can click here.
