Head on down to the Clark County Fair and Rodeo. Browns Amusements will be setting up the carnival end of the fair and boy does it look exciting on the website.
They have food, rides and games galore at the fair but that’s not all, watch the barrel racers, bull riders and roping competitions. There’s something for everyone at the fair.
Don’ t miss the We Care For Animals Pet Adoption on Saturday Morning. Adoption fees include spay/neuter, initial vaccinations and complete vet checks to ensure you know that your new forever furry friend is healthy and on his way to a happy home life with you. Don’t breed or buy, adopt.
Whatever activity they you are looking for, 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.
If you want them to find you, you know what to do, 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 you have coming our way.
Go seniors, best to all who participate in the Mesquite Senior Games. May the best Geezers win!
