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.

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.

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.

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.
