Prelude, on September 19th, officially launches the Wyoming Symphony Orchestra’s 75th concert season and community members and symphony supporters are invited to join the celebration.

Attendees will enjoy an exciting evening that promises an immersive experience and lively ambiance. Prelude is truly a party to celebrate the upcoming season with fellow community members who share a deep appreciation for the arts.

Taking place at the “M” in Casper on September 19th from 6:00 to 8:30 p.m., here’s what attendees will enjoy:

Live Entertainment

The WSO welcomes back their inaugural Prelude host and remarkable performer, Devin DeSantis, who will take the stage with The Four C Notes. This talented group of four gentlemen, known for their flair with vintage dance songs, is dedicated to authentically recreating the iconic music of Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons.

Backwards Distillery Collaboration

In a spirited effort to commemorate the 75th concert season, the WSO has partnered with Backwards Distilling Company to create Rhapsody 75, a black currant lemon liqueur. Backwards mixologists will create craft cocktails featuring the debut liqueur for guests to enjoy throughout the evening. Additionally, bottles of Rhapsody 75 will be available for purchase, for the first time, during the event.

Food & Drink

Prelude will once again open with a cocktail hour on the “M” Patio, where guests will enjoy refreshing drinks and great company, beginning at 6:00 p.m. After the cocktail hour, the party will move inside the stunning “M” event space for a selection of hearty appetizers and delicious treats from Silver Fox Steakhouse, one of Casper’s favorites.

Ambiance & Auctions

As always, Prelude features a lively ambiance in an elegant atmosphere where guests enjoy Symphony camaraderie and community engagement. Dancing, mingling, and special events throughout the evening such as a live auction and spirited paddle raise all boost celebration and support for the Wyoming Symphony Orchestra.

All ticket sales and funds raised support the Wyoming Symphony Orchestra and their mission to enrich Casper’s community through music.

March 31 Deadline For Wyoming’s ‘Becoming An Outdoor Woman’ Workshops

Gaining the knowledge to become an outdoorsy type of person isn’t easy. It takes time, dedication, and the desire to sometimes get out of your comfort zone. Sure, if you grew up in the outdoors, but it’s been a while since you’ve actually been out hunting, fishing, hiking, or camping, you may be a little rusty, but you have a leg up on those who haven’t.

If you’re in Wyoming, there’s a good chance that taking advantage of the incredible outdoor activities we have available has crossed your mind, but where to start is the big question. Asking others for help is one way, but there’s sometimes an element of intimidation or embarrassment involved.

If you’re a woman looking for that help and want to avoid the intimidation, you should really check out the Wyoming Game and Fish Department’s Becoming an Outdoor Woman (BOW) workshops this summer. It’s held at the Whiskey Mountain Conservation Camp near Dubois, and everything you need to learn about the outdoors is provided, including food and lodging.

The registration deadline is March 31, meaning you have just a couple of weeks to apply for one or all of the offered workshops.

There are multiple options available depending on your level of outdoor knowledge.

Basic BOW Workshop: Introductory level camp teaching outdoor survival, basic fly fishing, backpacking, how to shoot, outdoor photography, and more. There will be two of these workshops, June 5-7 and August 7-9. $150

Fly Fishing Beyond BOW Workshop: The focus here is on fly fishing. Learn the basics and then put them to use. This workshop runs July 30 – Aug 2. $150

Backpacking Beyond BOW: This workshop is all about backpacking, hiking, cooking on the trail, adjusting to the trail, and preparing for the trip. You’ll learn how to properly pack your bag, set up camp, and then head out on an overnight trip. July 30 – Aug 2. $150

Become a BOW Instructor: Here’s where you put your years of experience to work by sharing your skills and knowledge with others, helping them learn the tricks and tips of the outdoors.

Not only will these workshops help get you started on a life in the outdoors, but you’re likely going to gain some street cred with your family when you can teach them the skills they’ll need to get out and celebrate a Wyoming lifestyle.
