Mark Twain Festival and Northern Nevada Colony Annual Meeting
Mark Twain Festival – Brewery Arts Center, 449 W. King Street, Carson City
On Saturday October 18, from noon to 6 p.m., the Nevada Mayflower Society will be participating in the annual Mark Twain Festival in Carson City, which will feature kids’ activities, wagon rides, vendors of all kinds, and an appearance by Mark Twain himself (with photo opportunities!). It is free. Our Society will have an information booth (along with several other leading heritage societies), next to the Brewery Arts Center, 449 W. King Street in Carson. Our booth will offer displays, handouts, samples of our newsletters, books, and other relevant materials for members of the public to enjoy. We also will have information available for members of the public who wish to learn more about joining our society, or about applying for membership. We invite any of our existing members to attend the Festival, and volunteer to staff our booth— even if it’s only for an hour or two!!

On the same day, the Northern Nevada Colony will hold its annual meeting at the Fox Brew Pub, just a few short blocks from where our booth will be set up for the Festival. The meeting and luncheon will run from 11:30 a,m. to 1:30 p.m. You don’t have to participate at the Mark Twain Festival to attend the annual meeting. Seating is limited—we have only a dozen seats left, so please register as soon as possible. There is ample public parking nearby. We will conduct a small amount of Colony business, including election of officers, otherwise this will be an informal social time, coupled with a few fun things, including a Mark Twain Quiz with a prize to the lucky winner. We hope to see you there!
