Pahrump veterans committee met; OHV youth ride and closures upcoming

The Pahrump Veterans Memorial Advisory Committee met Jan. 15 at the Veterans Memorial Building to review matters related to the town’s memorials and veteran services. The session, held at 751 East Street, followed the agenda posted on the town’s online agenda center and is part of the town’s regular advisory committee schedule.

While the committee’s specific deliberations are documented in the meeting agenda and minutes available on the Town of Pahrump website, the gathering signals ongoing municipal attention to veteran recognition and site stewardship. For residents who visit or maintain memorial spaces, advisory committee work can affect upcoming events, maintenance schedules and opportunities to participate in commemorations.

Looking ahead, the town calendar lists an OHV Experience Youth Rider event on Jan. 18, from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. The calendar entry provides locations and directions, noting that the ride will take place off Highway 160. The event aims to engage young riders in off-highway vehicle activities; for local families and property owners, the event will mean increased traffic around staging areas and trail access points, and it highlights the ongoing importance of safety, registration and land-use awareness in the rural valleys and desert trails around Pahrump.

Town of Pahrump offices will be closed all day Jan. 19 in observance of Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Residents should plan around the closure for municipal services such as utility payments, permit inquiries and in-person counter services, and consult the town’s Calendar and Meeting Center pages for updates on office hours and service resumptions.

The Pahrump Arena Advisory Committee is scheduled to meet Jan. 22 at 7:00 p.m. at the Veterans Memorial Building. Arena advisory meetings shape programming, bookings and facility upkeep, affecting livestock shows, rodeos, community events and recreational scheduling that are important to Pahrump’s calendar and local businesses.

All event details, agendas and directions referenced on the town calendar are posted on the Town of Pahrump’s Calendar and Meeting Center pages. For those who participate in or are affected by these items, checking the online agendas will provide the full list of topics discussed, permits or restrictions tied to events, and contact information for follow-up.

These entries reflect a compact week of civic activity: municipal advisory work on veterans’ matters, youth outdoor recreation, a federal holiday closure and an arena meeting that could influence spring programming. Residents should review the posted agendas, note the Jan. 19 closure, and plan travel and participation accordingly as the town moves from advisory discussion to the events and decisions that shape local life.
