It's easy for us to wax poetic about how great the Parade is. We realize this, so we took to the streets, so to speak, to find out what YOU like about the parade. We interviewed kids, adults, businesses, etc. to find out what Casper actually thinks. And other than wanting to punch clowns in the face, these opinions are strictly yours and have no reflection on the thoughts of us. Except for the clo

While the parade itself may be for kids and families, Parade Day is designated for all ages, as evidenced by the after parties that take place long after the parade has concluded. This year,  many bars played host to the after parties that took place.

One of the biggest things to look forward to in Casper each summer is Parade Day! All different kinds of people and businesses put together the most eye-catching floats they can and they arm themselves with candy, prizes, and lots of water for the townsfolk. Everyone in town seems to come out on Parade Day. Indeed, this tradition seems to grow with each passing year. Check out these pics from Para

Admittedly, I’m not much of an animal lover. I love my dog, my sister’s dog, and my girlfriend’s mother (Huzzah!). Other than that, animals don’t really do anything for me. That being said, when I came across the petting zoo at the Central Wyoming Fair and Rodeo, I was like a little kid.

The Central Wyoming Fair and Rodeo is back and if opening weekend is any indication, it’s bigger,badder, and better than ever! With numerous rides, games, displays, prizes and choices of food, the CWFR continues to prove why it is the destination hot spot for Casper in July. People of all ages came out to the CWFR on opening weekend, as these pictures can attest to. And one thing can be certain-

As a kid in Casper Wyoming, our summers revolved around two things- the pool and the Central Wyoming Fair and Rodeo. So imagine my delight when, one summer when I was 13 years old, I was able to combine the two with my other favorite thing ever- a girl. This is the story of that day.

En route to performing in front of a varied crowd at The Beacon on Friday, David Ball and his friends stopped by the My Country 95.5 studio to perform some songs, tell some jokes, and share some stories with Rodeo Rick and our listening audience. Luckily, we also had a couple cameras available to document this living legend. Check out the pics and video below.

If you've ever wanted to feel the wind in your hair and the sun at your back as you follow the highways and byways on an amazing piece of machinery, but are like me and are terrified of motorcycles (and angry Persian women throwing knives), then have we got a deal for you! Because of Driven Powersports, we are proudly giving you a chance to win a Can-Am Spyder Roadster as part of our Visible Vault

Is there anything better than spending a warm summer day with your neighbors, listening to music, eating great food, shopping, and seeing beautiful works of art and photos? We don't think so. Which is why we look forward to NicFest every year. The number of people, vendors, and wonderful kinds of food and drink that we get to experience makes us look forward to every Casper summer. This year was n

Day 2 of the 2012 Downtown Throwdown saw many things. It saw heroic feats of strength, incredible demonstrations of agility and endurance, and yes, winners being crowned. Casper saw many of it's fire stations move on to the national competition that will take place later in the year, but all of the men and women that competed over the weekend proved that, if we're ever in danger, we'll be in good

Casper is a lot of things, but a "big city" is not one of them. Because of this, we miss out on a lot of 'festivals' and what-not that most big cities have. We've got Beartrap Summer Festival, and NicFest. The good news is, both of these events rock and remind me exactly how much I love living in our humble city. Check out these pics from the first day of the 2012 NicFest at the Nicolays

As a man, nothing makes me feel like less than...um...a man than by watching firemen run, climb, lift, and more. So imagine how effeminate I feel whilst watching the Downtown Throwdown. Firefighters from all over came to Casper to demonstrate who exactly is the alpha-male. They all proved themselves worthy, but there is still one more day to determine who is THE firefighter of firefighters. Check
