At this time of year basketball can dominate the headlines for any number of reasons. When it goes to help out a great cause, that's when the highlights really start. The Rotary Club of Laramie is proud to announce a match-up between the Harlem Ambassadors and the Gem City Travelers in a volunteer fundraising basketball event March 25th at the Laramie Plains Civic Center south gymnasium. All the fun is set to start at 7 p.m. Monday.
Drought conditions in Wyoming mean that rivers are running a little lower these days, so the 8th Annual Big Laramie Duck Race will be at Huck Finn Pond in LaPrele Park this year. A 12-horsepower generator is going to be used to make a stream for the rubber ducks to race down, with the winner getting a prize of $1,000.
It's time for spring cleaning! One great way to clear unnecessary or unwanted items from your home is to donate them and lucky for you Arc Thrift Stores is having a collection this Saturday, April 28, in Laramie. They'll be loading trucks with gently used clothing and household items in the Wal-Mart parking lot from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m.
If your kids are football fans, pay attention because this is one event you won't want to miss! The Wyoming Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA) are raising money for a missions trip to Haiti and their last big fundraiser is a Football Fun Day for Haiti with the Wyoming Cowboys for kids in eighth grade and under.
