Today's riddle: Why are crows so alert and curious? 🤔 (Answer below!)
1. Feed your soul: Central Wyoming Fairgrounds hosts Casper Fall Holistic Expo this weekend (oilcity.news) — Casper residents still have today to explore the Fall Holistic Expo at the Central Wyoming Fairgrounds, running from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. You'll find everything from aura photography and tarot readings to herbal remedies and Reiki, all gathered as a one-stop shop for mind, body, and spirit wellness and community connection.
2. Your Sunday, Sept. 13 Guide: Three things to do in the Oil City (oilcity.news) — If you're in Casper today, you can start with an early Ashtanga yoga session at WyOMing Yoga & Wellness, join runners at Casper College's T-Bird Trek, or browse the Casper Holistic Fair at the Central Wyoming Fairgrounds. All three options offer accessible ways to get moving, recharge, and connect with neighbors this Sunday.
3. For whom the bell tolls: Ford Wyoming Center hosts 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb (oilcity.news) — Casper community members and first responders gathered Saturday at the Ford Wyoming Center to climb its stairs in solemn tribute to those who died on 9/11. Led by speakers from Casper Fire-EMS and retired firefighters, participants honored the sacrifice of New York crews by tackling the demanding climb themselves, reflecting quietly on the courage shown 25 years ago.
4. With lawsuit pending, Wyoming school choice program's durability remains in question (wyofile.com) — Wyoming's new Steamboat Legacy school voucher program is moving ahead while a key court ruling on its constitutionality looms, leaving families and schools uncertain about its future. Casper figures prominently, from Rep. Steve Harshman's opposition at the Legislature to parents comparing private tuition costs with the classical education once available at Fort Caspar Elementary.
5. EPA grants small refinery exemptions (agrinews-pubs.com) — A federal EPA ruling has granted small refinery exemptions from 2025 renewable fuel blending rules, including a partial exemption for HF Sinclair's Casper refinery. While the agency plans to restore lost volumes in 2026–27, the decision could still influence local refinery operations and regional farm-based fuel demand tied to corn ethanol and biodiesel feedstocks.
