Reno Earth Day 2013 via Instagram

The Reno Earth Day celebration at Idlewild Park, April 21, inspired attendees as performance groups, vendors, and educational booths unite with a foundation based on a three-point theme: The Natural World, Many Cultures and Green Technologies. This free festival channeled all senses – with music from around the world, sights to inspire, tastes and smells from a variety of food selections, and many hands-on activities.

By the looks of yesterday’s Instagram feeds, all had a good time! Take a look:

PREVIEW: THE WORLD’S GREATEST COLLECTOR CAR AUCTION

Hot August Nights presents Barrett-Jackson in Reno for the first time this summer during Hot August Nights, August 8-10.  The new partnership between Barrett-Jackson and Hot August Nights will offer fans and customers of both the classic car event and collector car auctions a weeklong opportunity to celebrate and revel in some of the most recognizable and historic automobiles in the world. Not only will buyers be able to bid on and purchase from Barrett-Jackson’s famous selection of collector cars, but now they can take them right from the auction block to the streets of Reno Tahoe to participate in one of Hot August Nights’ famous cruises or Show-n-Shines.

From Mr. DuPont checking out his team’s setup, to Brad Paisley’s old ride up for auction, Palm Beach put on a good show… but we think Reno Tahoe can really WOW attendees with Hot August Nights on our side!

What to look forward to this spring in Reno Tahoe

Springtime is one of the best times to visit Reno Tahoe for a little relaxation. The area is looking its best – with snow-covered mountains, blossoming flowers in the valley, and a variety of weather conditions. In spring, you can golf and ski in the same day, hike or snowshoe, and paddleboard on Tahoe’s surface or take on the chilling rapids of the Truckee River.

Theses are a few of our favorite reasons to visit Reno Tahoe in the spring. Come enjoy!

Kayakers challenge the Truckee River's large rapids in downtown Reno, as the snow melts in the Sierra.

Lastly, it's not spring without frolicking in a field of flowers.

St. Patrick’s Day Photos in Reno Tahoe

Lads and lasses turned Reno Tahoe green this weekend with a lineup of St. Patrick’s Day activities that gave locals and visitors a run for their money! Ok, a few (FUN) runs! Luckily, plenty of watering holes welcomed and hydrated the runners, skiers and crawling leprechaun impersonators.

These lads had luck on their side, and made our favorites list:
