Stars of Tomorrow Showcases Local Youth Talent on Saturday

Laramie Kiwanis’ Signature Event Features Area Students’ Musical, Theatrical And Athletic Talent

LARAMIE – Albany County’s talented youth will soon be on display in the annual Stars of Tomorrow talent show hosted by The Laramie Kiwanis Club. The show is set to take place at 1 p.m. on Saturday, March 30 in the Laramie High School Auditorium. The event is free and open to the public, though donations are accepted to support Laramie Kiwanis Club’s ongoing work.

This year’s show will feature talented students in 1st through 12th grades in Albany County. A variety of acts showcase students’ musical, theatrical and athletic talent. There are four divisions in which students compete:
• Lower Elementary (grades 1 – 3)
• Upper Elementary (grades 4 & 5)
• Middle School (grades 6 – 8)
• High School (grades 9 -12)
First, second and third prize will be awarded in each division, as well as Best in Show, the act in the Middle School and High School divisions which is awarded the most points by the judges.

Additionally, the first place act in the High School Division is eligible to advance to the Kiwanis Rocky Mountain District competition slated for May 11 in Wheatland. One skilled performer who is a junior or senior in high school who receives the most combined points from the judges will win a $1,000 college scholarship from the Laramie Kiwanis Club.

The annual Stars of Tomorrow show is Laramie Kiwanis’ signature event. Laramie Kiwanis also hosts an Easter Egg Hunt and Special Needs Holiday Party annually while supporting other Laramie projects such as the Suicide Prevention Hotline, the annual Freedom Has a Birthday and Jubilee Days celebrations, and other food and item collection drives throughout the year.

Kiwanis International focuses on changing the world by serving children, one child, and one community at a time. To do this, local clubs, such as the Laramie Kiwanis Club, work in a variety of ways to support Laramie’s children and the community at large.

Many clubs also sponsor a Kiwanis family club: K-Kids for primary school children; Builders Clubs for adolescents; Key Clubs for teens; CKI clubs for university students and Action Clubs for adults living with disabilities – to reach more people and have a greater service impact on communities.
