Good morning, Carson City.

Les and Norma Reddick and Edward Porter launched L&N Party Rentals on July 19 in Carson City during a ribbon-cutting event — attended by Mayor Lori Bagwell and local dignitaries.

The new venue at 1770 Dori Way offers space for up to 300 guests, rental supplies, a fully licensed bar, and plenty of parking.

Between Jan. 19 and June 3, Carson City School District installed cameras on four school buses to record drivers who do not stop for a school bus, capturing 318 violations near Carson High School and South Curry Street.

The footage is sent to law enforcement for review—helping officials issue civil citations and work to improve student safety.

On July 22, the Carson City School Board held a first reading of updated Policy 539 that could exempt students from the PE requirement if they complete 120 or 240 hours of alternative activities—such as military science, marching band, athletics or competitive club activities—and earn graduation credits while still allowing enrollment in PE courses. The update reflects changes to NAC 389.488 and will be reviewed for board approval in the future.

Carson Valley Little League lost the 12U State Championship in Reno on Sunday with a 14-3 score in five innings, as Summerlin South hit two home runs to clinch the win.

Manager Jon Storke said the team showed strong effort on Saturday, and standout pitcher Will Knittel (who threw a complete game shutout) helped energize their postseason run.
