A Busy Day in Boulder City
Ron Eland/Boulder City Review
Six-year-old Karter Dunbar tried his best to lift this large pumpkin during Saturday’s Great Southwest Pumpkin Patch. The event featured games for the kids and prize drawings.
The Halloween House, not to be confused with the Christmas House, which is just a few doors down, has been a popular stop for many this time of the year with things culminating this evening as trick-or-treaters hit the streets of Boulder City.
Brock and Merissa Fletcher were two of many who dressed up for the block party on Arizona Street hosted by the Dillingers.
The Pumpkinman Triathlon, which started at Lake Mead and finished in town, also featured a 5k and 10k run (the start pictured here) along the streets of Boulder City. All were sponsored by BBSC Endurance Sports.
Dee Fong entertained the audience early on at Saturday’s block party on Arizona Street.
The triathlon started at Lake Mead with the swim. The bike portion came to Boulder City with the run starting and finishing at Wilbur Square.
The annual Southwest Pumpkin Patch drew a big crowd with plenty of pumpkins for sale as well as treats and games for the kids. Drawings were held for prizes donated by the community. Proceeds benefit the Boulder City Police Department Mounted Patrol and the Boulder City 4-H Club.

Boulder City Review
Saturday saw several events taking place in Boulder City from a triathlon to start the day to a popular block party to finish things out. But that’s to be expected this time of the year because as the weather cools off, the number of community events increase.
