Small Business Spotlight
Goldfield Trading Post keeps Vernon Street loud
For the first issue, the spotlight is simple: downtown needs places that give people a reason to come out after dinner. Goldfield has two shows this weekend and keeps a steady calendar of touring and local acts.

Neighbor tip
If you are headed to a ticketed event this weekend, check the organizer page the morning of. Roseville-area calendars often syndicate the same event, but the venue or organizer page is the best source for final times, ticket status, age rules, and parking notes.
