for Sister’s Easter Catechism: Will My Bunny Go
To Heaven? coming to the CVI on Saturday, April 20! If you are catholic, used to be catholic,
know people who are Catholic, dated someone Catholic, heard or told a Catholic
joke or have ever seen a movie with Bradley Cooper (yep, he’s Catholic) you are
certain to enjoy Sister's Easter Catechism. It’s a borderline irreverent and
hilariously funny reflection on the guilt and fear that guided many a terrified
soul into adulthood! Sister will answer questions of the season like “Why isn't
Easter the same day every year like Christmas?” and “Will My Bunny Go To
Heaven?” Sister's Easter Catechism will be presented twice on
Saturday, April 20 in shows at 5:30 PM and 8:30 PM in the CVI Valley Ballroom.
Both shows are the same – at least it starts out with that intention! Tickets are
$22 inclusive and are available on line or at the Carson Valley Inn hotel
desk. Classroom participation is a must, at least
for those sitting up front or making eye contact with Sister when she is in
“wooden ruler” mode!

| One Approach to Next Wednesdays "Couples" Dress Up Contest |
Getting
Ready for Next Wednesday
We’ll have our
traditional Wednesday Ladies’ Night
festivities tonight from 5:30 to 8:30 PM but the “buzz” will be about getting
ready for next week’s Couples Dress-Up Contest. As you can see in the picture
above, Julie and Kim are depicting two friends dressed for next week’s contest.
Fact is, we will be pretty liberal on the definition of a couple. Could be two friends,
sisters, a traditional couple, a mother and son, mother and daughter, or any
other combination including someone you might meet at tonight’s Ladies’ Night! All we ask is both
people be 21 or over! For contest prizes next Wednesday, we’ll start by giving
everyone who “makes an attempt” a ticket for one set of drawings for Free Play
Prizes. Sometime around 8 PM next Wednesday we’ll turn it over to our judges to
pick the best or cutest or most creative outfits (the judges volunteer, so they
get to make some of their own rules) for the contest prizes. The ladies will
also enjoy our regular Ladies’ Night games and prizes next week – see the This Week in the
Casino section below.

| Celebrating Our Bartenders this Sunday |
Making
These Days Special at CVI
 |
| And to the Drinks They Serve!! |
- As we mentioned last
week, today is Cherry Pie Day.
We have added a Mini Cherry Pie to
our Katie’s Bakery Menu and you can check out all of our
house-made bakery offerings by clicking here.
- Friday is National Margarita Day. Just planting the seed so you can remember to order one
here at the CVI on Friday – or any day!
- Saturday is Open That Bottle Night. This day is traditionally for
opening a bottle of wine you’ve been “holding” for a while. We have a better
idea: Save your special bottle for another occasion and come into CV Steak this
Saturday to enjoy a bottle (or even by-the-glass) from our CV Steak Wine List!
- Sunday is World Bartender Day. The bartender seems to be everyone’s favorite person around here so stop by in the next few days and offer a smile and a “Happy Bartender Day!”
This Week in the Casino
- Ladies’ Night Wednesday: join
us tonight from 5:30 to 8:30 PM with a free
Xtava Blowout Brush for the first 150 ladies and Tupperware Baskets Gift Baskets as hot seat prizes. You’ll also enjoy games, raffles, a
weekly drink special & free bingo for ladies playing in the casino. What is
an Xtava Blowout Brush? Seems it’s a combination of a smoothing
comb plus a heated rotating barrel . . . we’re still not sure what that means
but the attractive box is surprisingly heavy and it has quite the creative product
write-up on the back! Kim
in our Casino Marketing department will be grabbing the first one as she wants to see how it handles this bad hair day:
