Published 7 months, 3 weeks ago
Description
Good morning, this is your Boulder Local Frequency for Sunday, August 31, 2025. Whether you’re easing into the last day of the month with some sunshine and coffee or already plotting your adventure, we’ve got plenty of stories and happenings to keep you connected with what matters right here in Boulder.
Let’s kick things off with the latest from our CU Buffs. The volleyball team is on fire, coming off a sweep against Tulsa after a thrilling duel up in Laramie. Ana Burilovic set the pace with both kills and aces, and setter Rian Finley keeps breaking her own assist records. Coach Mahoney said they’re building real momentum, so fans should keep an eye on this squad as they navigate their way into conference play. Over at Prentup Field, the soccer Buffs just matched the best scoring run in program history, piling up 23 goals in the last four games with Hope Leyba leading the NCAA in goals and points. They’re wrapping up their homestand against Wyoming this afternoon at one, promising another electric match for those headed out or tuning in.
Boulder’s humming with art and music this Sunday. The Fox Theatre is welcoming a legendary figure tonight—King Yellowman with his Sagittarius Band takes the stage at eight, with special guests Chala and DJ Blood Preshah. Expect reggae rhythms and an energetic crowd; tickets are almost gone. If you prefer classic rock vibes, the Boulder Theater hosts Dark Star Orchestra this evening, guaranteed to pull in Deadheads and jam fans alike.
Elsewhere around town, Labor Day weekend travel is peaking, so expect some extra traffic on the highways and in the parks. Area hotels and restaurants are prepping for the usual influx, and local shops are rolling out sidewalk sales. Denver7 reminds us this might be one of the busiest holidays in years, so plan ahead and pack some patience.
In other local news, Colorado’s earthquake conversation is trending. After a swarm shook Nevada, Boulder's been checking its own seismic pulse. Colorado’s had 62 quakes in 2025, with only minor rumbles near Boulder. The risk remains low, but local officials are keeping emergency plans current, just in case.
Before we go, a quick highlight from the wider community—Colorado Women’s Chamber of Commerce recently honored the Top 25 Most Powerful Women in Business, including pioneers who are shaping science, finance, and local nonprofits. Their stories are sparking conversations across Boulder about leadership and impact.
If you’re looking for something lower key, trails around the Flatirons and Boulder Canyon are seeing late-summer blooms, and paddleboarders are out on Boulder Reservoir early. With the farmers market open and a host of food trucks parked along Pearl Street, it’s a perfect day for fresh produce and people-watching.
This has been Boulder Local Frequency. We’ll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
