A Fun Thing to Do in Vegas

Here’s something for aviation lovers. If you get close enough to McCarran International airport, you can tune your car’s radio to 88.5 FM or 101.0 FM and listen to air traffic control do their thing. What, you think all we do is hang out at the pool all day?

Of course, if you’re more into cars than planes, check out the collection at Imperial Palace.

Vegas Celeb Sighting

As you might suspect, Donny Osmond, currently at the Flamingo with his sister Marie, is very involved with local Las Vegas charities. He was spotted at a recent event supporting a children’s literacy effort, Spread the Word Nevada: Kids to Kids.

Best credit to tell kids when you’re Donny Osmond? “Mulan.” (He played Shang, the army leader.)

 We love our local Vegas nonprofits! Harrah’s has an ongoing relationship with Spread the Word Nevada: Kids to Kids, and volunteers from Harrah’s Entertainment devote time to cleaning gently-used books for children in local schools.

Donny enjoys taking in shows as much as being in them, it appears.
