Reno’s first Paris Baguette to hold soft opening later this month
This story was updated to add new information about the soft opening date. Reno-Sparks residents can finally say bonjour to the area’s first Paris Baguette.

The Yoells ultimately picked a retail center on the busy corner of Longley Lane and South McCarran Boulevard known as McCarran Marketplace — formerly the Air Center Plaza. The permit for the location was approved last year but remodeling took a long time as the bakery converted two stores into its new space. “That just happens when you convert two suites into (one that’s) 6,200 square feet,” Yoell told the Reno Gazette Journal during a visit to the space in August. Staff also had to undergo training and the new location had to pass multiple inspections. Founded in South

Jarrid Jones and Libby barely had started working together when their bond became clear. Jones, a retired Marine Corps gunnery sergeant from Gardnerville, and Libby, a black Labrador service dog, were spending their first night together. Jones fell asleep watching TV and experienced an episode of sleep apnea. "When you start choking awake," Jones said, "it kind of takes you a little while to know what's going on." Jones and Libby had been training together for just two days and hadn't even practiced what to do in that situation. But Libby was on the job. She reassured Jones until he was able to fully awaken and assess his surroundings. "It just so happened that she was right there next to me in perfect time," Jones said. "She's incredible."
