When the Ford Wyoming Center hosted Casper Comic Con on Saturday, June 26 and Sunday, June 27, it brought together a veritable hodgepodge of all things nerd-dom.
It was a room full of people of all shapes, sizes, beliefs and life experiences. They sat together. They broke bread together. They laughed together. Most importantly, they learned about each other.
Saturday marked the 25th Annual Kids' Fishing Day at Yesness Pond in Casper, sponsored by the Wyoming Game and Fish Department in cooperation with the Community Recreation Foundation.

One Force Run is a community-wide 5K fun run that’s taking place on June 12 at the Ford Wyoming Center from 8:00 p.m. to well past midnight. It’s going to feature a live DJ, food, drinks, black lights, black powder and more. It’s a 5K-run-cum-rave and, according to Coscino, it’s going to bring Casper together in a way that has never been done before.
