What Events Are Happening This Week in Pahrump

Mother’s Day is Sunday, and sometimes keeping it simple makes it the most meaningful. Remember those tried-and-true products you love because your mom loved them first? Translate this into a Mother’s Day activity that’s easy to do at home by filling a box with all the everyday things in your life that have a sentimental “mom story” attached. Take out the items one at a time and tell their story. Examples might include Post-it note pads, Brillo pads, a package of thank you notes, Vicks Vapo-rub, or Doublemint gum. If your siblings are gathering with you too, they can also get in on the fun by bringing their own items.

Upon review of all activities listed below for Friday through Sunday, there is not a single one which Mom would not love to attend with you. Even the Goth Party at Dry Creek Saloon could elevate your overall score with additional “favorite child points.”
