1. Order a pizza

Yum, yum... get me some! National Cheese Pizza Day is the perfect day to order dinner from your favorite pizza spot in Henderson & Boulder City! I know everyone has their favorite pizza spot in Henderson & Boulder City, but here's my family's favorite place to order pizza:

2. Celebrate grandma and grandpa!

If they live nearby, take grandma and grandpa out on the town on National Grandparents' Day to their favorite restaurant in Henderson & Boulder City if that's not possible. Send a card or make that call! This is also a good excuse for the kids to make a craft! 

Spend time with Grandparents at Henderson's Grandparents and Goodies.

Take a trip to Grandma Daisy's (530 Nevada Way in Boulder City) for old-fashioned ice cream!


3. Eat a cheeseburger
Sept. 18

If there's anything we love more than pizza ... it's cheeseburgers, especially at Pit Stop (802 Buchannan Blvd)  in Boulder City on National Cheeseburger Day! For the best service in the place ask for Tristian!  


4. Talk like a pirate
Sept. 19

Aaaaargh! It's talk like a pirate day! Celebrate by dressing the part. You're sure to have a swashbuckling good time! Drop the kids for a Kid's Night Out: Pirate Party, then have a little fun yourself... matey!


5. Welcome fall!
