WORLAND – Imagine a place in town where girls can go that feels like a second home to them. A place where there are no social stigmas and no type of discrimination. Where girls can be girls, be it silly or serious. Where they can learn important values that will help them in their growing years and into their adult life. Now look at the Edith Healy Little House located at 704 Howell Avenue in Worland. That house is owned by the Girl Scouts and is the meeting place for the Worland Girl Scout t...

LARAMIE – It's been said about the game of football for a long time, but in 13 years as a head coach, University of Wyoming coach Craig Bohl hasn't experienced it. They say teams make the most improvement between their first and second games. But in Bohl's experience, he said, "that hasn't been the case, because our teams have performed well in opening games."
