Flagstaff Local Frequency: Honoring Heroes, Celebrating Champions
Published 1 month ago
Description
Good morning, this is your Flagstaff Local Frequency for Saturday, March 21st.
Folks, we start today with a heartfelt remembrance thats touching our northern Arizona community. DPS Trooper Brett Buckmister, the dedicated 27-year-old who served just over a year on the force, is being honored today after tragically succumbing to injuries from a crash outside Page. His southbound patrol turned into a story of sacrifice, reminding us all how these everyday heroes keep our highways safe, and its a call to drive extra carefully out there on those winding roads to Page or beyond.
Shifting to brighter skies, NAU Lumberjacks are making waves nationally. Junior diver Grace Wesche just wrapped up an incredible showing at the NCAA championships in Atlanta, placing 21st in the 3-meter dive prelims with a score of 296.10, the best finish ever for a Lumberjack at this level. Head coach Nikki Kelsey praised her poise, noting she was just 10 points shy of the finals among 48 top divers. Whether youre a fan or not, this boosts our local pride and shows Flagstaffs talent shining on the biggest stage, inspiring kids at the pool today.
Weather-wise, were feeling that record-torching March heat experts say is virtually impossible without climate change, per Yale Climate Connections. Its warmer than usual up here at 7000 feet, so hydrate on those hikes and keep an eye on wildfire risks as we head into spring, impacting everything from ski melts to trail conditions.
For fun today, head to the Flagstaff Foundry for their March show featuring Momentum Aerial, blending high-flying acrobatics with local flair, tickets available now. Or catch showtimes at Harkins Theatres, perfect for a family escape from the warmth. Looking ahead, Mondays in March at Dark Sky Brewing mean bingo starting 5:45 in the beer garden with caller Andy dishing prizes, paired with live music, great for unwinding midweek. And mark your calendars: Michael Franti and Spearhead hit the Pepsi Amphitheater later this year on the Welcome to the Family Tour, bringing positive vibes to our summer nights.
From tributes to triumphs, thats your local pulse connecting us all in Flagstaff.
This has been Flagstaff Local Frequency. Well see you tomorrow with more local updates.
