Is the Wayne Gretzky or Scott Hamilton in you just itching to come out?  Hit the ice (not literally) for hockey leagues, figure skating lessons, general lessons, or just to mess around during open sessions at one of Reno’s newest public sports venues, Reno Ice. This is the first indoor ice skating facility in Reno to my knowledge, and it’s just what our community needed. 🙂 So head to South Reno and check it out!  Visit RenoIce.com for more information about skating options, to book a party or private event and just to peruse the events calendar.

All of your favorite big-hitters will fill the Reno Events Center with the spirit and energy of Disney!  Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, Donald, the Princesses, Elsa and Anna (and more) will “Dream Big” with when Disney on Ice comes to Reno.  A delight for all ages, you’ll be mesmerized by the dazzling show in true Disney style.  For tickets and more information, please visit DisneyOnIce.com.

Immerse yourself in a prehistoric experience where Jurassic Quest takes you on a journey through the Cretaceous, Jurassic and Triassic Periods. You’ll walk amongst more than 100 true-to-life-size animatronic dinosaurs, from the very small to the gigantic. Leading paleontologists have advised dinosaur creators to painstakingly replicate these amazing creatures in every detail. Jurassic Quest exhibits also allow future paleontologists to dig up fossils, ride their favorite life-sized dinosaur, enjoy walking dinosaur and baby dinosaur shows, and explore a dinosaur themed play-land. A few levels of event package options are available for purchase. Learn more and buy tickets in advance at JurassicQuest.com.

It never hurts to have a large serving of healthy fresh air and family fun!  Register in advance and learn more through the links below.
