City Of Casper Wyoming

Experience some of Wyoming's wildest wildlife without having to venture out into the wild. You only have to go as far as exploring the attractions at the Werner Wildlife Museum, a facility that is affiliated with Casper College. Several incredible creatures are featured as stuffed and mounted representatives of the various species from the area. See grizzly bears, mountain lions, and birds of prey. The museum also includes displays of animals from Canada, Alaska, Africa, Southeast Asia as well as other exotic places from around the globe.

The Casper Marathon is held every June and it stands as a very dramatic reminder of the importance of maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Participants are invited to "run with the herd" in an event that is half marathon, half marathon relay. The marathon is staged by the Casper Windy City Striders, the city's running club. Even though the group that organizes this event has literally logged thousands of miles in their respective races and daily runs; every effort is put forth to make this festival nothing short of a runaway success.

When you walk into Sanford's Grub and Pub, you instantly feel like you're among friends. You'll be immediately struck by the eye-catching 20th century memorabilia that is used to decorate the interior, but when you sit down, have a drink from the well-stocked bar and get comfortable, you'll feel like you're right at home. Live music is scheduled throughout the week, and the menu is packed with several delicious choices that include burgers, sandwiches, appetizers and more.

When you check out a show at the Casper Children's Theatre, you may be witnessing the stage debut of a future Julia Roberts or Tom Hanks. And while it may be years before that fact is determined, you can definitely enjoy the fun productions and entertainment that this highly talented group of young performers consistently presents. The theater's mission is to teach kids life skills through stage skills, and that mission continues to be pursued as the theater has presented an impressive 289 performances over the past seven years.
