Good morning, this is your Boulder Local Frequency for Thursday, August 7th, 2025.

The sun is coming up over the Flatirons, and it’s shaping up to be a lively day in Boulder. First up, an exciting evening for soccer fans: the Colorado Buffaloes women’s team returns to the pitch tonight for their first action of the season, hosting Colorado College at Prentup Field. Kickoff is at 7 pm and, with 12 newcomers on the roster, this exhibition will offer an early look at what’s in store for the Buffs this year. Coach Danny Sanchez says the team is fired up and ready to put their camp preparations to the test before they head into a tough schedule, including a meeting with twelfth-ranked Michigan State next week. If you’re in the mood for live sports under the summer sky, tonight’s match should not be missed.

Also starting today, the Boulder County Fair continues its run up in Longmont. It’s Kid’s Day at the carnival, so if you have youngsters itching for adventure, wristbands for unlimited rides are just twenty dollars—provided you buy before four o’clock this afternoon. The fair itself runs until 11 pm, offering classic games and plenty of fair food, plus single ride tickets if you’re looking to keep things casual. For rodeo lovers, tonight is the CPRA Rodeo, with all the bull riding, mutton bustin, and mounted shooting action kicking off at 4 pm and ramping up to the main event at 7. Remember, ticket prices increase at the door, so plan ahead if you want to save a little cash for funnel cakes.

For those interested in community and education, Lafayette Public Library is hosting a Front Range Community College info session this evening from 6:30 to 7:30. If you or someone you know is looking to explore degree programs, student resources, or financial aid, tonight is a perfect opportunity to get questions answered and meet representatives from the Boulder County Campus.

Tonight, you can also enjoy live music in classic Boulder style. License No. 1 in the historic Hotel Boulderado is welcoming Hunter Stone and Friends for a set starting at 9 pm. It’s a great way to wind down and soak up some soulful sounds right in the heart of downtown.

Elsewhere, CU Boulder continues to make waves both on and off campus, from new engineering programs reaching Western Slope students to ongoing research that’s answering big questions about the universe. The university’s popular “Dear Colorado” campaign rolls on, spotlighting the ways education and local partnerships shape the state’s future and highlighting Boulder pride that resonates beyond our city limits.

That wraps up your Thursday in Boulder—whether you’re hitting the fair, catching a soccer game, tuning into a community event, or taking in mountain views, there’s plenty happening all around town. This has been Boulder Local Frequency. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
