To mark his 85th birthday, Boulder City resident Lincoln White was prepared to jump out of an airplane. He went sky diving on his 75th birthday and had hoped to repeat the adventure, but was unable to keep his knees elevated for five seconds, a requirement of Skydive Las Vegas, which is based at the municipal airport in Boulder City. Instead, he watched as his grandchildren and friends went skydiving.

Saturday night, a large crowd donned their best 1980s attire, which included an abundance of neon-colored clothing as part of the aptly-named Neon Nights. The block party was hosted by Main Street Boulder City and served as a make-up event for their planned New Year’s Eve celebration, which was canceled due to impending weather. Attendees filled the restautants and bars along the steet, while listening to 80s music played by DJ Mike Pacini.
As the old saying goes, “If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again.”
