🍷 The Weekend Drop | This Weekend in Cheyenne

Your guide to what's happening in Cheyenne this weekend.

 
First Look
On the Radar
The Championship of Champions gets underway at CFD Park on Friday, with more than 100 Indian Relay teams racing all weekend, and then catch local music from Mike Morris at Black Tooth Brewery. Saturday morning, the Historic Lakeview Cemetery Walk is one of the more interesting things happening, with actors bringing some of Cheyenne’s early characters back to life. After that, head downtown for the Downtown Fall Festival, then head to Black Tooth for the UW Homecoming Watch Party starting at 1:00 p.m. If a hands-on project is more your pace, the Harvesting & Pressing Flowers Workshop at the Botanic Gardens is a good Saturday morning option. Sunday, start with some yoga at Sip, Stretch, Sparkle at Wagonhound Wine Co., then finish the weekend with How Suite It Is, a free concert from LCCC’s Wind Ensemble and Chamber Orchestra. Enjoy the weekend, and see you out there!
