Ice Cream Social to present Carson Street Ragtime Band
Saturday, August 16, 2025
The annual Carson City Historical Society's Ice Cream Social is Saturday, Aug. 16, 2025,
from 2 to 4 p.m. at the Foreman-Roberts House Museum Park, 1207 N. Carson Street,
Carson City.
Just like last August, the Carson Street Ragtime Band, a group of local musicians
will cheerfully whisk you away to the golden age of jazz with their classic, upbeat
swing tunes from the 1920s, '30s, and more. They feature an eclectic mix of instruments
such as trumpet, clarinet, trombone, piano, bass, banjo, vocals, and washboard. Donations
are highly encouraged, as this is a fund raiser for CCHS. Bring a chair, use one of ours,
or bring a blanket and sit on the grass to enjoy the afternoon's entertainment.
You may also tour the Foreman-Roberts House Museum during the Ice Cream Social.
Admission is free, and ice cream is only $3.00. Click
HERE if you wish to make a donation to CCHS via Square (same as QR code
in the poster at right).
