Summer Activities

We once spent hours breaking into an abandoned shed on a vacant lot near our house just to make it into a playhouse. Luckily we didn't get tetanus.

There’s no shortage of activities in Laramie for school-aged children this summer, but if you’re looking for a variety, Basic Beginnings might have a solution.

You’re in for a real treat with the August Planetarium shows at the Harry C. Vaughan University of Wyoming Planetarium.

The University of Wyoming cheerleaders will host a summer kids camp at the University of Wyoming June 25-27.

There are reasons to love both cold and hot temperatures, and we want to know which you prefer.

Summer has finally made its way to the Gem City, which means the University of Wyoming Art Museum is holding its annual summer solstice celebration. The free event showcases the silver dollar embedded in the floor of the Rotunda Gallery, which is illuminated through a solar tube in the ceiling exactly at noon during the summer solstice.

Just as a 1,000 mile journey begins with a single step, an annual tradition must begin with year number one. That is the hope of Hospice of Laramie, that their inaugural 'Friends FORE Hospice Charity Golf Classic,' will become a summer staple and annual event in Laramie.

To many of us, a summertime not spent on the water, is a poorly spent summertime. Within the city limits of Laramie, there are not any lakes or ponds that are good for swimming or boating, but there are a good amount of indoor and outdoor pools. Places to swim are good, because swimming is, to many, a necessity to the summer, but to many of us, pools just don't cut it in the summer months.

Get those kids out from behind the TV, off the computer, and actually have them set down the video game controller this weekend for a free day of fun at Curt Gowdy State Park. The Wyoming Kids Xtreme Summer Outdoor Slam is Saturday, June 2, from 10AM to 3PM.

Be it for ambition, necessity, or convenience, many people take summer classes at the University of Wyoming. With over 400 classes and approximately 3,000 students in Laramie over the next several weeks, the 2012 Summer Session is underway and will run through the first week of August.
