A rummage sale, the most intricate tattoos your can imagine and fried testicles. What a slate of Things 2 Do this weekend! 

Rummage and Treasures: It is considered the biggest rummage sale in the state and it will fill up the Livestock Events Center's Exposition hall this weekend. More than 100 volunteers and Physician's Spouses have been organizing warehouses of clothing, kitchen appliances, furniture, toys, and shoes. This is the 59th year for the event that raised $64,000 last year. It all goes to fund local groups ranging from nursing scholarships to arts and health focused organizations here from Casa de Vida to special arts. 

Poetry out Loud: For the 5th year high school students from across the state will compete for scholarships and honors reciting poetry. Poetry Out Loud is a national competition encouraging kids to learn great poetry. They'll be reciting it in 3 rounds from noon to 3 at the Siena in downtown Reno. The public is invited to attend.

"25th annual Putnam County Spelling Bee" is playing at the TMCC Nell J. Redfield Performing Arts Center. It's a musical about a spelling bee, not an actual spelling bee itself. It is a fun, energetic and quirky family show that has had the crowds rolling in the isles. We have another show tomorrow night March 12th at 7:30 pm
