Good morning, this is your Flagstaff Local Frequency for Monday, March 16.

Rise and shine, Flagstaff friends, its a crisp spring morning with highs climbing to 67 degrees today and clear skies perfect for shaking off those winter blues. Local high school sports fans are buzzing after the Flagstaff Eagles softball team notched their fourth straight road win, pushing their record to 3-2 and proving theyre a force on any field. That grit translates right to our community spirit, reminding kids and parents alike that perseverance pays off whether youre swinging bats or tackling daily challenges around town.

Over at Northern Arizona University, the golf teams gearing up to host the 19th Annual Red Rocks Invitational right in nearby Sedona, bringing top talent to our backyard and spotlighting the stunning red rock vistas that make this region unbeatable for outdoor lovers. Meanwhile, NAU track star Ramirez Tamayo punched a ticket to the NCAAs on the final day of zone championships, a huge win that inspires every young athlete dreaming big from our pine-scented trails.

Looking ahead, mark your calendars for some stellar local fun. This Saturday, March 21, the Black Jacket Symphony rolls into the Orpheum Theater at 7:30 pm to recreate Pink Floyds iconic Dark Side of the Moon note for note, a 16-plus event thats already generating excitement for its immersive sound and visuals thatll transport you under our legendary dark skies. Tickets are moving fast, so grab yours for a night that connects our love of music with the cosmic wonders overhead.

Speaking of those skies, Flagstaffs Dark Sky Coalition is rallying for International Dark Sky Week from April 13 to 20, with events planned to celebrate our gold-tier status and fight light pollution. Imagine stargazing parties that bring neighbors together, highlighting how preserving our night skies boosts tourism, protects wildlife, and keeps our economy glowing.

For weekend adventurers, a quick drive down to Sedona lands you at Slide Rock State Park in Oak Creek Canyon, where that famous 80-foot natural water slide awaits amid apple orchards and hiking trails. With March temps hovering around 52 degrees and just five rainy days expected, its prime time to splash, explore historic cabins, and book a cozy spot at nearby gems like Junipine Resort or the Canyon Wren cabins for an overnight escape that recharges your soul.

Stay safe out there, and heres to making today count in our vibrant mountain town.
