Events and Happenings in Carson City for Sunday, Nov. 10
Happy Sunday, Carson City! But it's not the end of the weekend yet, at least not for some, thanks to Veteran's Day Weekend. Here are the events left for the rest of the weekend!
Sunday, November 10
— The United States Marine Corps celebrates its Birthday on Sunday. The U.S. Marine Corps was formed as a security force of sorts, serving as an infantry unit aboard naval vessels and was responsible for protecting the ship's officers. Sometimes this was evident with the Marine's quarters positioned between the Officer's quarters and the rest of the ship - to serve as a buffer between them and the rest of the crew.
— Nevada Humane Society in Carson City to waive adoption fees for cats, kittens this weekend (all day). 549 Airport Rd. Are you looking for a cat? What a coincidence: we have about 400 cats here at our shelter who are looking for you! To help our cats find homes, we are waiving the adoption fees on all cats and kittens at the shelters in Carson City and Reno this Friday, Saturday and Sunday, Nov. 8-10.When our shelter becomes full, it limits our ability to help other cats in need throughout Nevada. This means, we need you. But more importantly, our cats need you.
