Are you a ringer?
Non-tournament horseshoes for fun. Come on out to Coyote’s Den this Saturday at 4 p.m. No entry fee, no trophy, just throwin’ shoes. In the game of horseshoes, two players or teams take turns throwing two horseshoes each, at stakes placed 40 feet apart.

Generally, only the closest horseshoe scores a point. “Ringers” score 3 points. 3971 E Kellogg Road. 775-727-5233.

Movie night at Our Lady of the Valley
“Uncharted” is the intriguing PG-13 film presented this month.

What starts out as a heist soon becomes a globe-trotting, white-knuckle race to reach the prize before the ruthless Santiago Moncada can get his hands on it. If Sully and Nate can decipher the clues and solve one of the world’s oldest mysteries, they stand to find $5 billion in treasure — but only if they can learn to work together. Everyone is invited to attend the Summer Movie Night this Saturday evening at 6 p.m. Admission is free. Pizza, popcorn, sodas, and root beer floats will be offered for sale. 781 E.
