What a week! Is anyone else ready for the weekend? I sure am. And it looks like Laramie has quite the lineup this weekend, from live music to farmer's markets and everything in between. So let's take a closer look at everything happening in Laramie this weekend!. Friday, June 24.

A Laramie woman is facing a felony theft charge after allegedly stealing more than $2,700 worth of items from Walmart over a two-month period. Police spokesman Lt. Ryan Thompson says officers were called to the store around 11 a.m. on June 22 for a report of multiple thefts occurring over May and June.

The Cheyenne Office of the National Weather Service says severe storms which may include winds of up to 60 miles per hour and quarter-size hail are possible in southeast Wyoming this afternoon.

Update: Green River police say a suspect in a double homicide late Thursday night at a Green River bar has died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound. The agency made that announcement after Rock Springs police had announced that they had the man in custody According to a GRPD news release:

Life is tough, why not distract ourselves when we feel that it's getting too heavy. I mean, sure, we can listen to music as an escape, we can go for a walk for our mental health, but I really enjoy videos on social media as I mindlessly scroll. And when...

In a landmark decision on Friday, the U.S. Supreme Court is overturning Roe v. Wade, the decades-old ruling which legalized abortion nationwide. The decision came while the high court was considering a case out of Mississippi where the state attempted to ban abortion after 15 weeks. Conservative Justice Samuel Alito...

The U.S. Supreme Court on Friday morning overturned a landmark 1973 ruling that essentially legalized abortion in the United States. The high court voted to overturn the Roe V.

This week felt like it buzzed by. I'm ok with that. We have a lot to do this weekend. It's going to be another one for the books with live music and festivals happening all weekend. Shout out to the City of Cheyenne for setting a lot of this stuff up. Are you not entertained! Sorry, I'll settle down. Let's take a look at what we have going on this weekend.

The timing was just right. Former longtime Laramie High School swim coach Tom Hudson announced his retirement on June 11, 2022. It was a day he knew would come at some point. Perhaps, not at the time it did, but Hudson is no longer in charge of LHS Swimming and Diving. Let’s just say, some personal circumstances away from swimming came together at the right time.

The Laramie Plainsmen football program had a fun 7-on-7 event inside War Memorial Stadium on Tuesday. Organized by the Laramie Football Committee, the coaching staff, and the LHS Football Booster Club, the event gave the players a chance to have some game-type fun on the big stage that UW plays on.

Areas along and east of the Laramie Range could see some severe storms Friday afternoon as a cold front moves through the area, the National Weather Service in Cheyenne says. The front will usher in much cooler temperatures for Saturday and Sunday, with highs struggling to make it out of the mid-60s in some locations.

I firmly believe that Laramie has both the cutest and sweetest shop in all of Wyoming, thanks to the Sugar Mouse Cupcake House and Tea Shoppe. Why do I believe they're the sweetest shop around? First off, their cupcakes are to die for (seriously, have you tried the Nutella-flavored one? Yuuuum.)

Have you heard about the "Parade of Planets"? The second half of the month of June is giving Wyoming and its giant, gorgeous sky a show that we haven't seen since 2004 and won't see again until 2040 with Jupiter, Saturn, Mars, Venus, and Mercury lining up for one heck of an early morning show.

Now, this is something that I think we can all agree is a great gesture from Baskin Robbins in Cheyenne. By now, we're all aware of the massive fire on Lincolnway this week and the tireless work that the Cheyenne Fire Department put in to control and keep the blaze down, saving several businesses and homes in the area.
