Brace yourself for a fun school year

While the summer may be wrapping up, we have some great resources to help you get ready for school and some amazing programs in August. No matter what grade you are going into, whether it’s kindergarten or grad school, the library has a database or program for you.

My memories of Goldie Begley

For four years now I’ve covered the annual Boulder City Chamber of Commerce dinner and awards night. And for four years there’s a part that always gets me a bit misty-eyed.

Assembly speaker’s actions say volumes

The recent Republican earthquake in Nevada continues to reverberate within the GOP’s Assembly caucus and across the state.

Magic waves refresh one’s soul
