This fourth Thursday of July has been declared National Refreshment Day; teamed up with National Hot Dog Day and Vanilla Ice Cream Day, today should be yummy. More good eats can be found at the Farmers Market in Dayton.

Interested in learning about flying? This event Saturday at Carson City Airport is for kids ages 8-17 years old that are interested in learning more about flying. Pilots will be discussing the Principles of Flight and general information about aircraft and flying.

Members of the Dubuque Civil Air Patrol taught kids all about airplanes, from flying in a simulator, to showing them the cockpit of a plane all to help their interest in aviation take off.

The valley is alive with the sound of music: the Jazz and Beyond Music Festival, to be specific. Just about everywhere you go, you’ll be treated to something to soothe the soul or get the toes tapping. Get the kids up early for the Young Eagle Flights at the Carson City Airport – they’re free, but you need to be on time for registration.

“For me, when I was in high school, I got a ride like this from people and it just kindled an interest in me. I thought if I can pass this test to become a pilot that I can do most anything I want in life."

Registration is open with a few slots still available for the 30th annual invitation-only Young Eagles Day of flying happening Saturday, June 10 at Carson City Airport.
