PAHRUMP EVENTS | Fish frys, live music, bike rides and more

Updated February 23, 2023 - 1:15 pm

What’s going on around Pahrump Valley?

The Lenten fish frys begin this Friday, and continue through March 31, at Our Lady of the Valley Catholic Church. Dine in or carry out. Fried fish, baked fish, fish tacos, clam chowder – and of course, plenty of fries and housemade cole slaw! Kids meals, desserts, beer and wine are also available. Everyone in the Pahrump community is welcome. You’ll see plenty of neighbors there.

Don’t miss, live music

Check out some unique, exceptional musical talent this weekend when Scotty Dub appears at 5280 Mexican Grub & Pub onSaturday. BCBC (Brown Chicken Brown Cow) performs at Mountain Springs Saloon this Sunday.

My favorite bands playing locally this weekend include the Randy Anderson band at the Pahrump Nugget, Electric Mayhem at the Bearded Lady Saloon, and Still Drunk at Sunrise at the Hubb Bar & Grill.

Get on your bikes and ride!

Sunday group bicycle rides have returned. Consult organizer Wesley Jacobson’s Facebook page for routes and details. All skill and experience levels welcome. No rider will ever be left behind. Starting locations and times are posted and updated frequently.

Other reasons to leave the house

PAWS (Pets Are Worth Saving) is conducting a pet adoption event featuring food and music on Sunday, and the Trojanette Review explodes with dance on the PVHS stage on Tuesday. Free bingo at Coyote’s Den, free line dancing lessons at Rhinestones and at 5280 Mexican Grub, and karaoke almost every night of the week at various fun venues all add up to a really fun week.

Sportsman’s Quest: The Story Teller

The time of hunting and fishing conventions has come to an end and the hunting guides-outfitters have returned home to prepare for another season.
