This Time It's For More Than A Cheap Buzz

If you're still looking for a way to help victims of the Mizpah fire, try this weekend's Wine Walk downtown. The monthly event is always a great way to spend a Saturday afternoon, but this weekend half the proceeds will go to benefit the people who lost so much in what is now the deadliest fire in Reno's history. If you've never done the Wine Walk before, it's easy; just show up at any of these places at 2 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 18, pay your $15 (it's been a while since I've done it but I think that's still the price) and start walking around downtown Reno and sampling wine. As a bonus, the walk will end with the lighting of the City of Reno's truly gigantic Christmas tree next to the ice rink in the Virginia Street Plaza. So dress warmly and please come out, because this time it's for a really good cause.
