Good morning, this is your Boulder Local Frequency for Saturday, December thirteenth.

It is a crisp Front Range morning, and Boulder is leaning hard into the heart of the holiday season, with a mix of big community traditions, arts events, and some noteworthy local news.

We start with public safety and a story that has shaped Boulder’s identity for nearly three decades. Boulder Police have released their latest annual update on the JonBenét Ramsey murder investigation, nearly twenty nine years after the six year old was found killed in her Boulder home. Investigators say the case remains a top priority, with new evidence collected over the past year, older evidence retested using updated DNA technology, and additional interviews conducted. Police are again urging anyone with information to come forward, underscoring that even after all this time, they are still working to bring resolution to the community and to the family.

If you are ready to get out and enjoy the city today, Chautauqua’s WinterFest is in full swing. Up at the historic Chautauqua campus, you will find horse drawn carriage rides, a cozy holiday market, live music, festive food and drinks, craft making, cookie decorating, and a winter fairy forest for the kids. It is one of Boulder’s most beloved holiday weekends, and a great way to feel that old fashioned mountain town charm right at the edge of the Flatirons.

For the arts crowd, there is plenty on stage in town. At the Dairy Arts Center, the play Every Brilliant Thing continues its run, blending humor and heart in a story about finding reasons to love life, even in the midst of hardship. Over at New Vista High School, the Brown Sugar Nutcracker reimagines Tchaikovsky’s classic with belly dance, samba, and hip hop, turning a familiar holiday ballet into something fresh, modern, and very Boulder.

Sports fans have a good excuse to head to campus this afternoon. The Colorado Buffaloes men’s basketball team host UTSA at the CU Events Center, with tipoff just after two o’clock. Colorado comes in eight and one and undefeated at home, looking to bounce back from a close loss on the road, so you can expect an energetic crowd and up tempo play.

And if you are looking for something a little more offbeat tonight, the Junkyard Social Club is hosting an evening comedy show, with doors and a preshow DJ set starting around seven. It is a very Boulder blend of art space, playground, and performance venue, and a fun option for adults who still like to feel like kids.

This has been Boulder Local Frequency. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
