Upcoming Events and Area Happenings
The regularly scheduled weekly activities have resumed, along with one notable surprise.
Nye County SxS (side by side), a growing Pahrump ATV, RZR, Slingshot, and Buggy off-road recreational vehicle community, has scheduled a late morning ride this Saturday — destination Crystal, Nevada. They’re meeting here in town at the Horizon Market gas station at the corner of North Blagg and Simkins roads, planning to leave at 11 a.m. to caravan out to Crystal to the Short Branch Saloon. Saturday is a celebration of life for Kathy Bragg, proprietor of the saloon. This off-road vehicle group “is all about embracing the thrill of the ride, diving into fun-filled adventures, and forging new friendships along the way.” Watch for future rides to be organized for the first Saturday of each month.
Get a little out there in this new year!
