Good morning, this is your Flagstaff Local Frequency for Wednesday February 25.

Rise and shine, Flagstaff friends, on this crisp winter Wednesday. Our Northern Arizona Lumberjacks womens swimming and diving team kicks off today chasing their first MPSF Conference Championship down in Pharr, Texas, with diving prelims starting at 9:30 a.m. our time. Fresh off smashing pool records at home, including Cydnie Perkins new mark in the 200-yard breaststroke and a blistering 800-yard freestyle relay, these athletes are primed to make waves and bring home hardware thatll inspire every swimmer in town.

Right here on campus, NAU Engineering Building 69 hosts the ASCE Engineering Discovering Night with Kimley-Horn from 5:30 to 7 p.m. tonight, perfect for students eyeing careers in civil engineering to network, discover opportunities, and geek out over real-world projects shaping our mountain communities. And over at Native Americans for Community Action, the weekly Talking Circle gathers at 5:30 p.m. for heartfelt discussions that strengthen our local bonds and cultural roots.

Tickets for George Lopez at Pepsi Amphitheater go on artist presale tonight at 10 p.m., so comedy fans, get ready to laugh your way through his signature takes on life that hit close to home for us all. Meanwhile, Snowbowl is ramping up excitement with Bingo Night at Basecamp starting at 6 p.m., followed by Family Friday this weekend, keeping those slopes buzzing as we savor every snowy minute before spring.

On the roads, stay cautious after yesterdays crashes on I-40, including a scary rollover near mile marker 141 that hospitalized three kids and an earlier collision with a FedEx truck. Scanner reports note icy conditions lingering, so plan ahead if youre heading out. Looking ahead, mark April 8 for the Flagstaff Mountain Film Festivals SMR Adventure Film Session at Snow Mountain River, with global tales of grit, big landscapes, and brews included for just 22 bucks.

NAU proudly unveils the Maria and Steve Sanghi College of Nursing thanks to a generous gift, boosting health care training thatll serve Flagstaff families for generations. And while Coconino County wraps up serious charges from recent incidents like that Feb. 4 shootout, our sheriffs office keeps us safe with targeted operations.
