Boulder Local Frequency: Measles Alert, Body Cam Transparency, and Earth Month Events
Published 1 week, 3 days ago
Description
Good morning, this is your Boulder Local Frequency for Thursday, April 16.
Folks, kick off your day with some big local buzz. Colorado just confirmed its second measles outbreak of 2026, with a fresh case in Weld County pushing the statewide total to 16. Health officials are urging everyone, especially families, to double-check vaccination status to keep our communities safe and gatherings worry-free[1]. Closer to home, a court ruling means Boulder cant charge for body cam footage anymore, opening up more transparency in police matters and empowering residents to stay informed[3].
Now, for the fun stuff thats got our town humming. Over in nearby Superior, the Ukulele Ensemble makes their debut concert tonight from 6:30 to 7:30 at the Community Center open space, strumming fresh tunes theyve practiced for months perfect for a relaxed evening under the stars[5]. Tomorrow, April 17, head to the Superior Community Center for JAMMIN Feud trivia at 6:30, a free family showdown packed with laughs and neighborly competition[5]. On Saturday, join Sgt. Salaman for Chat with the Chief at 9 AM there too, your chance to grill on safety tips and crime trends straight from the Boulder County Sheriffs Office[5]. Nature lovers, dont miss the Coyote Ridge Hike at 9 AM, led by wildlife ecologist Ashley DeLaup, spotting critters in open space while soaking up that fresh Boulder air[5].
Earth Month is heating up with Superior hosting Earth Day Workshops on Wednesday the 22nd at Civic Space, hands-on eco projects for all ages that turn learning into real environmental wins[5]. Arbor Day tree planting and cleanup hits Grasso Park on the 25th, your shot to dig in and green up Coal Creek[5]. Film buffs, catch Chasing Childhood on Friday the 24th, a doc on kids free play vanishing amid rising anxiety, sparking talks on balancing screen time with outdoor adventures[5]. Teens, Retro Rewind Night that same evening at the Community Center brings 70s vibes, pizza, silent disco, and games[5].
Boulders arts scene shines too. The Boulder Potters Guild Spring Show and Sale is on now, brimming with functional pottery, sculptural ceramics, and jewelry to spruce up your home or snag unique gifts[7].
