Good morning, Cheyenne.

WyoGives Day is a 24-hour charity drive happening today that lets businesses and individuals across Cheyenne donate any amount to local nonprofits.

Donations may be enhanced by partner contributions—boosting each dollar's impact on community services.

A 47-year-old Cheyenne man was arrested after he reportedly bullwhipped two women and punched a deputy during a domestic disturbance on July 5 at 9:38 p.m. in Laramie County—he is scheduled for a preliminary hearing on July 18 at 10:30 a.m.

Ian Munsick, the first Wyoming native to headline the event, will perform at Cheyenne Frontier Days on July 18 — he will share the stage with Travis Tritt and partner with Southern Recipe Small Batch to offer their signature pork rinds.

A new study finds that federal Medicaid cuts in the Big Beautiful Bill will shrink Wyoming’s economy by $140 million over five years and cost nearly 200 jobs a year — many in health care, construction, retail and government.

In contrast, expanding Medicaid could add 440 new jobs over five years and boost GDP by $60.9 million annually — a lost chance to improve economic growth in areas like Cheyenne.

On Monday, the Laramie County School District 1 Board of Trustees approved a $440M budget for the upcoming fiscal year with a $12.2M increase in staff costs due to rising health insurance premiums and the elimination of 30 positions by attrition — the plan also funds new school construction projects and reallocates money amid a property tax shortfall.

Today, WYDOT and Simon Contractors detour motorists around the Egbert interchange on I-80—closing the eastbound ramp from 7 to 11 a.m. and the off-ramp from 10 to 11 a.m. Work continues weather permitting.

Cheyenne property owners can view upcoming stormwater fees on a new online map (showing key stormwater infrastructure) that will fund system maintenance.

The fees, based on hard surface area, will appear on utility bills starting Jan. 1, 2026 and are expected to raise about $6 million per year.

Cheyenne police have enlisted extra officers from the Torrington Police Department—along with deputies from the Laramie County Sheriff's Office—to boost security during Frontier Days, which starts Friday and runs through July 27.

Staffing levels depend on ticket sales as each day’s detailed plans are set to guide law enforcement efforts.
