Someone left a key ring in Guns & Guitars last week and has not returned looking for it, so they thought they would put the word out.

It is a key ring with a fob (automatic opener) from a vehicle with the manufacturer’s symbol on it, a small key that looks like a mailbox key, and a grocery store customer card.

If anyone is looking for this key ring, please stop by the store after Monday or call 702-533-3960 to inquire about it.

The American Red Cross asks people to make a resolution to give blood regularly in 2015, beginning with January National Blood Donor Month.

Donated blood has a limited shelf life and must be constantly replenished to treat patients in need.

Give the gift of life while the blood mobile is at the Mesquite United Methodist Church today from 9:30 a.m. until 2 p.m.

How are those New Year’s resolutions working out for you?  If you vowed to eat healthy, get more exercise, and have more fun, come to the Mesquite Fine Arts Gallery on Thursday, January 15.

This action-packed agenda is full of healthy living tidbits and a nutritious lunch of hearty soups and salads.

This event, “Baby, It’s Cold Outside,” is presented by Virgin Valley Artists Association.

Advance tickets for this noontime event can be purchased at the gallery for $20.

Don’t miss the second weekend performances of Vintage Hitchcock-A Radio Play.

The Virgin Valley Theatre Group once again opens the curtain on this familiar old time favorite storyteller’s three popular stories, Sabotage, The Lodger and The 39 Steps.

The Kids for Sports Foundation exists to ensure all kids are given the opportunity to experience the positive benefits of playing organized sports.

They do this by helping remove financial and other barriers that prevent kids from participating in sports.

Join them in helping to remove these barriers by taking part in their Charity Golf Tournament which is scheduled to be held at Wolf Creek, 403 Paradise Parkway on

Saturday January 17 with a 9 a.m. shotgun start.
If you want entertainment, activities or events you can always find what’s happening right here in the community calendar every Thursday in print or everyday online at www.mesquitelocalnews.com/category/calendar.

Send all your events to tphilswife@aol.com, please put “community calendar” in the subject line or your submission may get lost in cyber space.
I look forward to spreading the word about all the great community events coming in 2015.
