If you’re looking for something sweet, swing by the Western Plains Opera Company for La Bohème. It’s a story of love that’s tough as nails, set to the most beautiful music you ever heard. Like watching the perfect dance of heartbreak and hope, La Bohème takes you through the highs and lows with every note, like the best kind of love song. If you’ve got a heart that’s beat to a few of life’s hardest rhythms, this one’s for you.
Now, if the open air is calling you, lace up those sneakers and head out to Black Butte for the LeeWok Adventure Race. Whether you’re going for 5K or 10K, throw on your wildest costume, make ‘em laugh, and race like the wind. There’s something about running free on National Play Outside Day that just feels right.
And don’t forget, Off The Vine’s got a Smokey Mountain Bacon Dip that’ll make you want to cozy up like it’s already fall. Sip on that Fini Merlot and let your worries roll on by.
