Good morning! My wife and I always struggle to find fun things to do, especially with our little baby. There are a ton of resources if you do some sleuthing, but it's all scattered and time consuming to dig through. So I made a site that brings all those sources together into one simple list. It's free, pulls from a bunch of different calendars, and updates every hour. Kid friendly stuff is at the top, but everything else is on there too: concerts, games, events around town, and a few worth the drive spots in the surrounding areas. I was born and raised here and wanted to give back to the community a little. It's small, but it's something. If you know of a calendar I'm missing or some other source, let me know!

I hope you find it useful. Enjoy :) https://renotoday.org/

There has been very little public information or any recent updates regarding Jason Brown, the Reno man convicted in the horrific dog-killing case, who recently went before the Nevada Parole Board.

I personally called to get an update and was told that his parole was DENIED following his hearing last month. He had been seeking release this October.

However, I was also informed that he WILL be released on March 28, 2027, and that his release on that date is mandatory.

I’m sorry, but how is that even possible? His parole was denied, yet he will still be released just months later?

Considering the horrific cruelty involved in this case, I find this absolutely disturbing and heartbreaking. These innocent animals suffered, and I cannot imagine how anyone who remembers this case could feel comfortable knowing he will soon be back in our community.

March 28, 2027, is less than six months away.

I believe the public deserves to know when someone convicted of such horrific acts of animal cruelty is being released, and we deserve a clear explanation of how our justice system allows this to happen.

I’m absolutely disgusted. 💔🐾

The title pretty much sums things up. My wife and I have been working with a law office for some time now and have sunk a substantial amount of money into services leading up to a hopeful mediation with the real estate divisions. We were informed today that our lawyer is leaving the office and the firm will no longer be able to represent us. I am at a complete loss of where to go or what to do now. I am in need some recommendations of people or firms to talk to.

First, just to be completely transparent: I have absolutely no affiliation with Dark Prison. I don’t work there, or volunteer there, I don't know anyone who works there, or have any connection to it whatsoever. I paid for my tickets yesterday, and went last night. So I’m just posting because I thought it was AWESOME

If you don't know what I'm talking about, the closed Nevada State Prison in Warm Springs is currently the setting for a haunted house called Dark Prison.

And… they did a GOOD job.

I’ve been to plenty of haunted houses over the years, and this is probably the best one I've personally experienced. The setting alone gives them an upper hand, they absolutely nailed the atmosphere, and There is SO much set work, so many props, even have anamatronics, and really scary live actors. They’ve taken different wings of the actual prison and turned them into a freaky labyrinth.

So you can understand let me elaborate: I went with my friend who is basically Stone Cold Steve Austin when it comes to getting scared — you aren't gonna get one over on her, shrugging stuff off or laughing- well even she admitted being scared a couple times. Of course, downplaying the matter

SO If you love haunted houses — or you’re the type of person who gets the crap scared out of you — I really think this one is worth checking out.

And the attraction is more than just the haunted house.

They have tarot readings and Ouija boards set up in the dimly lit mess hall and meat locker, a little midway where you can buy tickets and play games like “Scream Like a Banshee” and a version of the Wheel of Morality, an area where you can get fake prison tattoos, and various props set up for photos, A food truck, 2 bars (one VIP) an art collective and am gift shop....

We spent the better part of 2 hours inside.

BUT We also paid extra for the VIP tickets, and honestly, I'm glad we did.

Part of the reason I wanted to go in the first place was because I’m interested in the history of the prison, and the VIP experience takes you behind the scenes into areas that aren't dressed up for Halloween. You get to hear some of the history behind the prison, its construction, and some genuinely hard-to-believe facts about the place. I was captivated, lots of interesting stuff

VIP also gets you, a laminated VIP pass, a drink at the upstairs bar and a parting gift from the gift shop. You get to choose between a Dark Prison lapel pin or a canvas tote bag.

I chose the tote. I'm planning on turning it into a panel for a sweatshirt, so I'm pretty happy with that as my souvenir.

Assuming if you made it this far your thinking your going to attend so I have

a few tips for you::

• Buy your tickets online beforehand. The price goes up significantly if you buy them at the gate.

• Promo code: "BUNNIEE" gets you $5 off each ticket.

• Wear GOOD closed-toe shoes. Seriously. You're walking through an actual old prison, and some of the surfaces are uneven — or worse. There are also sections where you can't really see the floor you're walking on. Keep your feet covered and make sure you have shoes you can comfortably walk in.

• Charge your phone before you go. You can't use them in the haunted house not for pictures not as flashlights but you will need them when you arrive, to scan a QR code to access the waiver, and everyone entering has to sign it. It's easy and only takes a few minutes, so you'll need a phone with enough battery to do it.

To sum it up, I wasn't expecting much, walked out thinking, “Okay… that was actually friggin awesome.”

Again — not affiliated, not sponsored, not getting paid. Just a person who went last night and had a great time.

I have a super early flight going out of town next weekend, I have an uber reserved for 3:45am. In the past, I’ve had an uber not show up (because of how early it is). I tried to reserve space in the lot, but it says it’s already full from October 10-17. Is that just reservations are full, or the whole lot could be full? If my uber doesn’t show, can I just drive my car there and is there likely to be parking?

Thank you in advance 🫶🏻
