Good morning, this is your Flagstaff Local Frequency for Thursday, January 29th.
We're kicking off a big week here in Flagstaff with several exciting events happening right now and heading into the weekend. If you're a diving enthusiast or just looking for some quality athletic competition, the Lumberjack Invite is underway at the Wall Aquatic Center and runs through Saturday. This is a major regional diving event bringing together some of the best collegiate divers from across the country. Today features the one-meter preliminaries and finals for both men and women, so if you want to catch some impressive athletic performances, head on over to the aquatic center.
Speaking of NAU, the Lumberjacks basketball team takes the court tonight at home against Eastern Washington at the J. Lawrence Walkup Skydome. The game tips off at five o'clock, and you can catch all the action streaming on ESPN Plus. It's conference play, so every game matters as the season heads into its final stretch.
If you're more of a music person, we've got live entertainment happening tonight as well. Andy Frasco and the U.N. are performing at Yucca North starting at eight o'clock this evening. If you haven't caught them before, it's a fun, energetic show that brings people together.
On the community front, there's some important work happening right here in Northern Arizona to address housing challenges. Blue Cross Blue Shield of Arizona has announced a significant investment to help local families find stable housing. The seventy-five thousand dollar contribution is going toward helping up to fifty households secure stable homes while also upgrading fourteen homes with new heating and cooling systems. It's a meaningful initiative that recognizes housing as fundamental to community health and wellbeing.
As we look ahead to this weekend, remember that the diving invite continues with three-meter competition on Friday and platform events on Saturday. It's a great opportunity to support student athletes and watch some incredible performances right here in our community.
For those looking to explore what else is happening around town, there are various cultural events and galleries showcasing local art throughout the area. Check out the Northern Arizona University Beasley Art Gallery this evening if you want to engage with the creative community.
This has been Flagstaff Local Frequency. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
