Things 2 Do This Weekend!

The temperatures are getting colder, but the events are just heating up!  You're just a day away from the weekend, and I’ve got a bunch of options for you in this week's Things 2 Do! Take a look!

You've heard of racing cars, but Virginia City is putting together an original style of racing…it’s the 29th year of Outhouse Racing! Teams of three from all across the country come to compete in this out-rageous spectacle. Festivities kick off at noon on Saturday with a parade of outhouses down C Street! Don't forget the toilet paper! For more information, you can click here.

How about something a little scarier...coffin racing! Gardnerville is pulling out all the stops this year and combining the Coffin Races with their Harvest Festival! Enjoy all the entertainment, scarecrow stretcher races, fresh foods and fun this Saturday at Heritage Park! For more information, you can click here.

It’s the first week of October, and that means it time for Oktoberfest celebrations! Just a short drive away at beautiful Camp Richardson they are celebrating in style with live music, a bratwurst-eating contest, yodeling and costume contests, over 40 craft booths and of course beer! That runs all weekend long in South Lake. For more information, you can click here.

And in Carson City, Casino Fandango is having their own Oktoberfest, complete with all the German food and drink! Enjoy games like Hammer-Schlagen, live music and over 40 vendors! That's at Casino Fandango all weekend from 11-7! For more information, you can click here.

And now for something a little more...scary. Slaughterhouse...the biggest haunted house in the area is open for business and dying to see you! This year they are adding a fresh layout and new scares, like the Terror Train--a 10 minute train ride of spooky excitement! The frights start this weekend at Greater Nevada Field.
