Upcoming Events: your complete list of Halloween happenings
Town offices will be closed in observance of Nevada Day Friday, October 31. The kiddos and everyone else in Nye County School District are taking Friday off as well. Happy Halloween! But not the postal carriers. Sorry. USPS (Post Office) delivery and collection schedules will operate as usual. Remember your oath, Postal Peeps. “Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night, stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds.” Happy Nevada Day to us all, particularly Pahrumpians. We have such a fine town!
Beatty Days are happening today through Noember 2nd to Beatty Cottonwood Park at the corner of 3rd and Amargosa Streets. We’re talking art exhibits, live music by Still Drunk at Sunrise and Wildhorse bands, vendors, tricycle races, a Halloween costume contest, Miss and Junior Miss Beatty Days crowning, and signature bed races. Wait, let me catch my breath. Okay, pet parade, pancake breakfast, Tombstone 5k run and 2k walk, the Saturday morning parade, chili cook-off, hula hoop contest, and the classic car show. Consult https://www.beattynevada.org/BeattyDays2025.html for a full schedule of events.
Were you thinking Halloween was just for the little ones? Well, once they’re tucked into bed with a sitter (remember to tip generously), there are plenty of 21+ parties happening around town, most with costume contests – all with a ridiculous amount of fun to be had. Whether you’re going for spooky, funny, or glamorous, we can’t wait to see your Halloween spirit! Read on.

■ The drop-off location for Operation Christmas Child, a Samaritan’s Purse project, is open November 17 - 24 at New Hope Fellowship, 781 West Street here in Pahrump. Operation Christmas Child seeks to demonstrate God’s love in a tangible way to children in need around the world, together with local churches across the globe. Since 1993, Operation Christmas Child has been collecting and delivering gift-filled shoeboxes to children including many who are suffering from war, poverty, disease and disaster. Operation Christmas Child hopes to reach another 12 million children in 2025 with the hope of Jesus. Each box packed full of quality toys, school supplies, and personal care items becomes a tangible expression of God’s immense love for the child. For many, it is their first gift ever! Delivered by local church partners, shoebox gifts provide an opportunity to present the Gospel to boys and girls in a clear, child-friendly way. Shoebox packing is fun for individuals, families and groups. Find a step-by step guide at https://samaritanspurse.org/operation-christmas-child/pack-a-shoe-box/ Fill it with gifts, such as a medium to large “wow” item ( soccer ball with pump, or stuffed animal) then fill with other fun toys, school supplies, and personal care items. Don’t forget to also include a personal note and photo—sometimes these are the child’s favorite things to receive! For collection days/hours, or more information, call New Hope at 775-751-1867.
