Carson City recently issued the following announcement.
The Carson City Parks, Recreation & Open Space department invites the community to join us for our 2nd Annual Homestead Holidays event at Silver Saddle Ranch. This will be a 3-night event, running from 5pm-8pm each evening of December 10th, 11th, and 12th. The affair is full of family-friendly activities and old-fashioned holiday cheer. There will be mule driven wagon rides, live music, children’s story-time, Christmas Craft Market, Chili, hot festive drinks for the family and adults, thousands of Christmas lights, Christmas Trees for Charity raffle, and of course Santa will be there.

Parking at Silver Saddle Ranch is limited, and overflow parking is available at the 5th Street Trailhead on the north side of Prison Hill, or across Carson River Road at Eagle Valley Middle School.
