Creedence Clearwater Revisited Sunday,
38 Special in the Wings
- With a daytime high predicted to be "only" in the mid-90s, an 8 PM start time, and no precipitation in the forecast, Sunday night is shaping up quite nicely for the Creedence Clearwater Revisited concert in TJ's Corral. We checked with our Box Office folks last night and they reported standing room tickets are available and suggested that, if you're still interested in attending, you act quickly. There may be some seated tickets available on Sunday night at the Box Office if we get any last-minute releases by the artist.
- After a break for the start of school in many districts, we are thrilled to have 38 Special returning to TJ's Corral on Friday evening, September 21. The group was last in TJ's in the summer of 2015.
- You can buy tickets for both remaining concerts on our website or in person at the Hotel Front Desk.
CVI 34th Birthday Means
A Free Treat for You!!
Our 34th Birthday Party is Saturday evening, August 18 from 5:30 to 8 PM in TJ’s Corral and it includes some Free "presents" for you including Michael Furlong’s Tribute to Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers! This classic rock experience has been appearing in casinos throughout the country as well as fairs and festivals nationally since 1990. Tom Petty himself made mention of Michael’s show in a 1996 Rolling Stone Magazine interview, on the internationally syndicated radio show "Rock Line" and on "MTV's Top 20 Countdown."
You'll also be able to chow-down at special birthday prices with $2 pulled pork sandwiches and $1 hot dogs. Quench your thirst with $2 beers, $3 wine and just a buck for soda and water. And it wouldn’t be a birthday party without free ice cream! No tickets are necessary, no reservations are required and there’s plenty of free parking so just join us for a fun evening. All we ask is that you please leave your pets at home.
CV Steak – A Point of View
Here's another
chapter from the CVI's “We Couldn't Have Written It Better" book: a discriminating
Carson Valley local sent us a message out of the blue last weekend after
enjoying a birthday dinner in CV Steak on Friday night. His comments were quite
concise and positive: "We had dinner at CV Steak last night. Awesome!! The
server Shreya was one of the best I’ve had in a LONG time. And the food: great
taste and presentation . . . quality with every item. Every person we
encountered was high class from the hostess and the manager to the bus person. Yet
he wasn’t like any busser I’ve come across. Engaging from the start. We thought
he was our waiter. Excellent table presence and added polite but well timed
humor: We’ll call him our 'other server.'" Thanks for your comments and please keep 'em coming!

early 70s as Creedence

Hannah & Fredrick
A Prelude to the Mixed Scramble?
Hannah Gregg and Frederick Lindblom took a moment to relax in front
of the waterfall on the #8 green at the Genoa Lakes Ranch Course two weeks ago
while visiting our area on a social media blitz. Both are very active in the
golf business as players, bloggers and product representatives.
We tried to talk them into coming back for our 34th Annual Mixed Scramble Golf Tournament in September but their schedule simply was too full. Actually, we were okay with that because they play golf at a level well above our comfort zone! With the Mixed Scramble just a month away, now would be a really good time to check out the details at this link, gather a few friends, sign up and get ready for mixing it up with a bunch of other folks who just like to enjoy a weekend of fun that happens to include a no-pressure round of golf! And when your foursome gets to the #8 green, be sure to stop and have your picture taken in front of the waterfall . . . perhaps you will come out looking as young and athletic as Hannah and Frederick!

Free Entertainment in the Cabaret Lounge
The Roem Baur Duo tonight,
Stone Senate Thursday thru Sunday, Cliff and Dave Monday and Tuesday. Roem Baur is a multiple award-winning touring songwriter and
classically trained opera singer who ultimately answered the call of rock n'
roll. Stone Senate is a 5 piece contemporary Southern Rock band hailing
from Nashville. With collective musical influences as varied as hard
rock, bluegrass, funk, metal, and classic country, Stone Senate has often been
compared to such classic acts as the Allman Brothers and a heavier Lynyrd
Skynyrd with an undeniably original twist.
Cliff and Dave is powerhouse
singer/gospel drummer Cliff Porter and southern-fried singer/guitarist Dave
Berry, often seen fronting the band Jelly Bread. They provide an evening of
sultry R&B, funk and swinging rock ’n’ roll.
