If I were looking to entertain a young one, I might take him/her over to Carson City for a couple of hours to look at the fine edifices of our government buildings and such. The story of states choosing small towns for their state capitals is a fascinating one, and Nevada's iteration is very cool.
Beyond that, there's Virginia City, parks, walking by the river - don't forget to check the main visitreno.com site for more ideas and links!
Disclaimer - of course, all this is assuming that the 19-year old would have even the slightest interest in these or any non-partying types of activities, and if I were 19, I might find all these suggestions totally uncool.

Thank you for the reply!
agreed.. except for virginia city is pretty cool from what i hear. i have only rode my motorcycle up there a few times and never stoped..
anyone ever go see any shows or comedy clubs or anything?
i was thinking about taking her to the magic show since there is 2 for 1 tickets on the coupon page. but the last magic show i went to here was to see darin romeo (sp?) anyway it was some of the gayest crap i have ever seen. _________________ Don't play blackjack that pays 6:5..Changing that one rule, reducing blackjack payouts from 3:2 to 6:5 adds a substantial 1.39% to the casino's advantage. |

I'll vouch for the Magic Underground. Saw it about a month ago and decided to do a special report on it. http://visitreno.com/mu |

That's exactly what I'd have recommended in the first place, but I was trying to make a real effort to promote "Family Values".
Good for you, for doing the right thing. |
