  • "Hermanos Gutiérrez, Lemon Sponge Cake Ballet, and Buffs Invitational: A Sunday in Boulder"
    Good morning, this is your Boulder Local Frequency for Sunday, September 14, 2025.
    The sun is shining on Boulder after last night’s scattered showers, and it’s a memorable day for live music lovers, theater fans, and outdoor explorers. If you’re in the mood for world-class sounds, tonight is the second night of the sold-out Hermanos Gutiérrez concert at the Chautauqua Auditorium. The doors open at 6:30, and if you managed to snag a ticket, you’re in for a transportive evening at the base of the Flatirons. If your musical tastes run more on the Americana side, Max McNown is playing Boulder Theater tonight. His “Forever Ain’t Long Enough” tour promises heartfelt melodies starting at 6:30, so it’s a great bet for a Sunday out with friends.
    The arts scene is buzzing too; at the Dairy Arts Center, Lemon Sponge Cake Contemporary Ballet premieres “LOLA RUN” this afternoon at 2:00. If you haven’t experienced Robert Sher-Machherndl’s choreography, expect electrifying contemporary movement and poetic storytelling. Meanwhile, the celebrated Takács Quartet continues its September run at CU’s Grusin Music Hall. Today’s performance is part of a weeklong residency, so classical music fans can plan ahead for more evenings filled with string harmonies.
    Sport fans have something to cheer for as well. The Buffs Invitational is underway at the CU Events Center, where rising stars of women’s college volleyball are set to thrill spectators throughout the day. Bring your team spirit and catch some of the best young athletes in Colorado.
    For Boulderites craving adventure in the mountain air, some news: Trail Ridge Road in Rocky Mountain National Park has closed temporarily due to early snow and icy conditions. The National Park Service hasn’t announced the full seasonal closure date yet, so keep your hiking plans flexible, and remember to check for updates before heading out. Photos from the Alpine Visitor Center today showed dramatic snowfall at nearly 12,000 feet, a sign that the high country is slipping toward autumn.
    On the community front, the conversation about water conservation has taken on new urgency. Regional experts warn that Colorado River reservoirs are approaching critically low levels, urging everyone—from farmers in the valley to Boulder city leaders—to cut water use and prepare for a potentially dry year. Many are hopeful that collaborative action now can prevent more drastic restrictions in the future and secure Boulder’s place as a model for sustainable living.
    And finally, for those feeling social, Boulder’s robust dance community is warming up for Salsa and Bachata socials later this week. The rhythm picks up on Thursday evening, so brush off your dancing shoes and get ready to celebrate vibrant Latin beats with neighbors old and new.

    Good morning, this is your Boulder Local Frequency for Saturday, September 13, 2025.
    A crisp weekend is unfolding here in Boulder with sunlight shimmering off the Flatirons and plenty to keep you engaged, curious, and entertained.

Admission is free and visitors can look forward to author talks, readings, and cross-cultural conversations that are bringing literary voices from around the globe right into Boulder’s heart. Whether you’re a poetry devotee or a fiction fanatic, this lively gathering promises fresh ideas and some serious book-browsing inspiration.
    Around the creative corners of town, the Fall Art Market at Groundworks Art Lab on Aurora Avenue is running from 10 to 5. It’s a fantastic chance to meet Colorado artists, explore original artworks, and maybe even pick out something unique for your home or a thoughtful gift. If photography is your passion, East Window Gallery’s “Shadows Gather: The Archives 2019–Now” exhibition is open through October, showcasing more than 2,000 vibrant images capturing Boulder’s queer and punk underground scene. First-time and longtime residents alike can deepen their connection to Boulder’s creative spirit with a stroll through either gallery today.
    On the sport front, CU Boulder’s volleyball team continues their hot streak, coming off a strong win against Arkansas for their seventh straight victory this season. Energy is running high at the CU Events Center, and the Buffs are setting an early tone for fall sports in Boulder. If you’re a fan, check out the latest matchup schedules and don some black and gold to cheer them on.
    For those who crave some fresh air, the Boulder foothills are radiating that September magic. Whether you’re tackling a trail or simply pausing to watch the sunrise, you’ll catch morning views of the Flatirons from Louisville and across the valley. Bird watchers can drive up to Barr Lake for the Fall Birding Festival, but right here there’s no shortage of local hiking spots and parks to greet migrating birds.
    Foodies and neighbors are venturing out to community garage sales and local farmers’ markets, with late-summer produce and plenty of treasures to discover around every corner. While the Gold Hill Inn’s beer garden is closed today for a private event, the local dining scene has plenty to offer across town if you’re after a cozy lunch or a celebratory dinner.
    And as for campus news, CU Boulder has returned to routine after a disruptive Thursday when three campus buildings, including Norlin Library, were evacuated due to an unconfirmed bomb threat. The all-clear was given within an hour, classes resumed in most buildings, but Norlin will stay closed today with police escorts available for students needing to collect their items. It’s a reminder to stay aware but also to appreciate the dedicated campus safety teams who work to keep B

  • "Boulder Buzz: Yoga, Music, and Community Connections"
    Good morning, this is your Boulder Local Frequency for Thursday, September 11th, 2025.
    The Flatirons are glowing and the city is buzzing with new happenings, so let’s dive right in. Starting today, if you’re looking to start your morning feeling grounded and refreshed, Kaiut Yoga is happening at the Boulder Jewish Community Center from 9:30 to 10:30. It’s a format that welcomes all bodies and walks of life—think intentional movement, expert guidance, and a great chance to settle your mind before the day’s bustle.
    Tonight, music lovers can get their fix at the iconic Fox Theatre where The Copper Children take the stage, joined by Phoebe Nix, The Speeks, and Hard Maybe. The doors open at 8 PM, and with that lineup, expect dancing, big local energy, and probably a few stories to take home. If creative connection is more your vibe, check out Junkyard Social Club’s Game Night running 6 to 9 PM, or join their Fusion Partner Dance where you can either learn a few steps or just lose yourself in the rhythm. Boulder’s community spaces are buzzing—and that’s exactly how we like it.
    Looking a bit ahead, Saturday brings the 11th annual Bee Boulder Festival to Central Park, right alongside the Farmer’s Market. The event has grown into a true town favorite, blending education about pollinators with live performances, crafts, and dozens of local organizations sharing practical ways we can help the environment. It’s perfect for families, nature lovers, and anyone wanting to soak up the early fall air while supporting a good cause.
    Pearl Street will soon come alive with the next Pearl Street Stampede, but mark your calendars for September 19 for the next big Buffaloes march through downtown. Expect the Golden Buffalo Marching Band, CU athletes, and enough school spirit to echo down the corridor all weekend.
    A quick nod to our local news: Boulder continues to grapple with a rise in fentanyl and methamphetamine overdose deaths through the first half of this year. The coroner’s office reports 13 fentanyl overdose deaths so far, up 50 percent over last year. These numbers are a sobering reminder of the continued need for prevention, support, and vigilance, even as many other overdose trends are declining nationally.
    In University of Colorado news, the Boulder campus has just been ranked fifth nationally for its free-speech climate, the highest of any Colorado college. The university also unveiled a new demographic report showing its growing support for communities across the state, and if you love a bit of cutting-edge science, CU physicists announced a breakthrough in what’s known as a time crystal, potentially setting the stage for transformative tech in the years to come.
    Lastly, if you need to simply take in the view and find a little peace, the Flatirons are spectacular right now—just ask anyone lucky enough to see the sunrise over them this morning.

It was a coordinated night-long effort involving multiple rescue teams and helicopter support, a powerful reminder of our outdoor risks and the courage of our local responders.

If you can’t make it tonight, the second session runs tomorrow; both promise practical advice for every age.
    Yesterday, the Elevations Credit Union Buffalo Bicycle Classic took over Boulder Canyon. For the brave cyclists who rode, not only was it a rare chance to pedal this beautiful stretch of road with zero car traffic, but every mile helped raise thousands for CU student scholarships—it’s a ride that changes lives for local scholars, so hats off to all who made it happen.
    Looking ahead, mark your calendar for Saturday: the 11th Annual Bee Boulder Festival buzzes into Central Park.

  • "Boulderthon Buzz, Cosmic Vibes, and Equestrian Excitement: Your Sunday Roundup"
    Good morning, this is your Boulder Local Frequency for Sunday, September 7th, 2025. A clear day is shaping up for Boulder, with the Flatirons looking spectacular against the late summer sky, so it’s a great time to get outside or tap into some of the unique energy flowing through town.
    Let’s start with community news. Last week in Boulder County, a young local boy is recovering after a minor bike accident with a truck, a reminder for everyone to be extra cautious as kids squeeze in more outdoor adventures before summer winds down. Meanwhile, local businesses are gearing up for big Sunday football crowds, with the Denver Broncos’ season opener just hours away. Look for plenty of community spirit and fan gear at cafes and bars around Pearl Street and the Hill, as businesses hope for a crowd-boosting bump to wrap up the weekend.
    If you’re looking for something active, the Boulderthon 5k and 10k course previews just wrapped up yesterday at Fleet Feet Boulder but the energy from all the runners is still carrying through town. With the Boulderthon events just around the corner, you might find more folks than usual out on Pearl Street getting their strides in or talking post-run over coffee and snacks. The buzz on running trails should pick up, especially as people connect with partners like Boulder Community Health and grab giveaways from local sponsors.
    Today brings the Mountain and Plains Appaloosa Horse Club’s Colorado Colors Fall Finale Horse Show to the Boulder County Fairgrounds over in Longmont. Gates are open from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m., so families and horse lovers have the chance to see a fantastic showcase of equestrian skills and beautiful horses. If you want to watch some competitive riding, this is the event to catch.
    Boulder is also channeling some cosmic vibes this weekend: while we won’t see the blood moon eclipse overhead, locals aren’t missing out on the energy. Yoga studios and meditation circles will be holding classes focused on lunar energy, encouraging introspection and renewal even when the sky is clear. Later tonight, some adventurous Boulderites are planning full moon-inspired night hikes along trails like Flagstaff Mountain and Mount Sanitas. Bring a headlamp, your favorite playlist, and maybe a sense of wonder as you enjoy the stars.
    For anyone at the University of Colorado Boulder, today’s the last day to register for the Interfraternity Council’s formal fall rush. If you’re looking to connect on campus, now’s your chance to dive into Greek life, make new friends, and get plugged into the social scene.

Whether you’re a Buffs fan, an art enthusiast, or just eager to soak up some Boulder sunshine, there’s something for everyone today.
    Kicking things off with the biggest buzz in town, Folsom Field is the place to be this afternoon as Coach Prime and the Colorado Buffaloes football team hit the home turf against the Delaware Blue Hens. The Buffs are aiming to notch their first win of the season after a tough opener last week. Kickoff is at one thirty mountain time, so expect the area to be packed with gold and black. If you’re not headed to the stadium, you can still catch the action live on FOX and follow along with the energy sweeping campus.
    Before the game, swing by the Limelight Hotel’s tailgate party starting at ten thirty. It’s just a stone’s throw from Folsom, and you’ll find food, drinks, and spirited fans making the most of every pregame moment. Farrand Field is also buzzing this morning, where CU’s Student Game Day Huddle ramps up student energy with games and music leading right into kickoff. If you’re trying to avoid game-day traffic or just want to stretch your legs, the Denver Hiking Meetup Group is hitting the Royal Arch Trail at Chautauqua Park at nine. Be sure to arrive early—parking on Baseline Road fills quickly on the weekends.
    For those seeking a creative spark, Boulder is alive with art events this weekend. The East Window Gallery is hosting the opening of Shadows Gather, featuring over two thousand Fuji Instax photographs capturing Colorado’s underground and queer punk scene. The exhibit started last night but runs through October thirty-first, so there’s plenty of time to drop by and see some of these visual stories debuting for the first time. Or, stay local and discover First Friday art walks and pop-up exhibitions happening at galleries throughout the city and neighboring towns—a celebration of local creativity that brings fresh inspiration to our community spaces.

    Good morning, this is your Boulder Local Frequency for Thursday, September 4, 2025.
    Let’s kick things off with a look at the big stories shaping Boulder today. The University of Colorado Board of Regents Finance Committee has advanced a major campus housing initiative, moving forward with a significant property acquisition to support expanding student housing. With the fall semester now in full swing at CU Boulder, this development is drawing interest from students and residents alike, as it promises both new housing options and impacts on our local neighborhoods.

    For those with a passion for Boulder’s historic architecture, the County’s Historic Preservation Advisory Board is holding its virtual meeting at 6 p.m. this evening. Residents can tune in to learn about efforts to preserve our city’s landmarks and even address the board with their own concerns about historic buildings or sites. These meetings play a real role in shaping Boulder’s skyline and keeping our rich history alive in the face of new development.
    Let’s shift to things you can do today. If you’re a remote worker or digital nomad, the Boulder Coworking Meetup invites you to drop in any time from 8:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. for a mix of productivity and friendly networking. It’s a great chance to share your workday with new faces, whether you’re seeking motivation or just looking to break out of the home-office routine.

  • "Shaping Boulder's Transit Future, EV Tax Deals, and Community Connections"
    Good morning, this is your Boulder Local Frequency for Wednesday, September 3rd, 2025.
    Starting off today, Boulder is taking a big leap toward shaping the future of how we get around town. The county has launched its first-ever strategic transit plan called “Linking Boulder County,” and they’re asking for your input. The goal is a more coordinated, accessible, and sustainable transit network—think improved bus service, maybe even a Northwest Rail Line to connect Boulder with Denver and Longmont. If you care about how we all move through the city, now’s your chance to speak up. Residents have until September 19th to join the community advisory committee and help make our transit system work for everyone.
    Turning to transportation news on the streets, drivers heading between Boulder and Longmont should keep an eye out for more speed cameras. Local officials are expanding the use of automated speed enforcement, meaning a ticket in your mailbox could be the new normal for heavy-footed commuters. And in the world of electric vehicles, there’s been a rush at local dealerships as folks hurry to take advantage of EV and e-bike tax credits before they’re cut in half next year. Over at Boulder Nissan, the race is on to clear the lot of electric SUVs while the deals still last.
    It’s not all policy today—it’s also about things to do and ways to connect. Early risers enjoyed Yoga For All this morning at Chautauqua’s Academic Hall, and the energy was great. If you missed it, keep an eye out for more sessions. Fashion-forward locals showed up at The Swap this morning at Galvanize Boulder, a streetwear event all about style without the waste. And if creativity is your thing, the Dairy Arts Center is hosting Bad Shabbos this afternoon at 4:30, a unique gathering with local flair.
    On the civic side, the Boulder County Board of Adjustment meets at 4 p.m. today. Whether you’re invested in land use or just curious about local government, these meetings are open to public participation in person and online.
    For those looking to boost their financial know-how, there’s a Building a Banking Relationship workshop at 5:30 p.m. tonight—completely virtual and designed to help you navigate everything from choosing a bank to understanding your options.
    In other news, the Boulder County Commissioners just approved a new farm-style dog kennel out near Niwot Road, adding a fresh resource for local dog owners. And for those who rely on local health care, Clinica Family Health & Wellness will soon be moving their Boulder acute care services to a new facility in Louisville, aiming to provide even better access.
    That’s what’s happening in Boulder today, from new transit visions to ways you can get involved, stay healthy, and have some fun. This has been Boulder Local Frequency. We’ll see you tomorrow with more local updates.

  • Labor Day in Boulder: Worker Solidarity, Live Music, and Local Lore
    Good morning, this is your Boulder Local Frequency for Monday, September 1st, 2025. Happy Labor Day to all our listeners. If you have the day off, or if you’re celebrating the contributions of workers across Boulder and beyond, there’s a lot happening right here in your backyard.
    First up, Labor Day is always a big day for gatherings, parades, and showing solidarity. While most of today’s larger protests and marches are centered in Denver, including the major “Workers Over Billionaires” event at the State Capitol, Boulderites are encouraged to join or support the cause from here by engaging with local labor organizations or even carpooling down if you want to be part of the action. While the Governor’s Mansion will be a key stop in the Denver march, it’s worth remembering that Governor Jared Polis actually calls Boulder home. So if you spot a little extra buzz near his Boulder residence, you’ll know why.
    Back in Boulder, the summer concert season is hanging on strong. Don’t miss live music at classic venues all week, with touring bands and local favorites gracing stages at the Fox Theatre and the Velvet Elk Lounge. Later this week, look out for RNGRDUBV and Charlie Wonder lighting up the Fox, and coming Sunday, Dan Rodriguez and Heather Maloney are playing at eTown Hall. Tickets are moving fast as always, so check your local listings before you head out.
    If you’re tempted to venture further afield to catch bigger names, Neil Young and the Chrome Hearts are playing at Fiddler’s Green in Greenwood Village tonight, sure to be a treat for classic rock fans. For those who like their concerts under the stars, Gregory Alan Isakov closes out his two-night stand at Red Rocks tonight with Leif Vollebekk opening.
    Staying local? There’s more than just music. Boulder’s rich agricultural history comes front and center as local historians and storytellers share tales from the Catch-a-Calf program—the 90-year-old tradition that shaped Boulder’s dairy and farming roots. It’s a perfect time to take a stroll through Boulder County Open Spaces or even consider digging into a little local history at your favorite coffee shop with friends.
    In government news, Boulder County’s Board of Commissioners has voted to put a new mental health and addiction tax on the November ballot, hoping to address gaps in community services. If you have thoughts on how the tax could impact local health initiatives, keep an eye out for upcoming community forums and information sessions.
    For those hoping for a spectacle in the sky tonight, space weather enthusiasts should look up. There’s a G2 to G3 geomagnetic storm watch tonight, making for a small but real chance of aurora sightings over Colorado. Be sure to check your local forecast and get out somewhere dark if you’re hoping for a glimpse of northern lights over the foothills.
    Finally, as always, Boulder Reporting Lab has up-to-date headlines and a strong dose of community spirit ready for your Monday morning reading. From all o
