Carson City is monitoring Covid-19 issues and working very closely with all of our health-related partners. To date, we have only one reported incident which was determined to be travel related but that is not cause to take this virus lightly.

In light of our new normal of social distancing and self-quarantine in an effort to reduce the risk of spreading C19, the Brewery Arts Center and National Grassroots Concert Series have teamed up to brighten your St. Patrick’s Day and re-stream the outrageously fun concert that took place at Levitt AMP Carson City on The Change Companies Stage last August by The Wicked Tinkers.

St. Patrick’s Day has always been a big to-do at The Fox Brewpub in Carson City, but this year will be somewhat different due to COVID-19.

The Carson City School District recognizes the situation regarding COVID-19 is very fluid, with conditions changing rapidly. Therefore, the following actions are being taken to best meet Governor Sisolak’s expectations in unprecedented circumstances.

Carson City Yoga will be closed as of March 15th. All classes are canceled through the end of March. The Open House that had been scheduled for March 21st has also been postponed. We will re-evaluate the situation as needed. For information and updates, check the CCY web page at www.carsoncityyoga.com or follow Carson City Yoga on Instagram or Facebook.

UPDATE: Carson City meal sites are expected to begin Tuesday, March 17, 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Empire Elementary School, Mark Twain Elementary School, Seeliger Elementary School, and Carson High School.
