This themed evening for the dinner dance is more than just a date night… it's a community-powered fundraiser that supports the students and helps keep special programming, experiences, and opportunities strong. Megan and Lindsey share what attendees can expect, including dinner, auctions, games, and a dance, plus the kind of warm, small-town energy that makes these nights so memorable. The conversation also dives into what makes St. Margaret's unique: a small, faith-based environment, a strong focus on leadership and service, and a school culture built on a true partnership with parents. From Catholic Schools Week celebrations to service projects and student involvement, you'll hear how this school keeps kids engaged, supported, and encouraged to grow into the kind of leaders our communities need. You'll also get a peek at other St. Margaret's happenings throughout the year, including community events like bingo nights and paint parties — and why local support matters so much for fundraising efforts that directly benefit students. Whether you have a connection to the school or just love supporting great things happening in our community, this episode is a good reminder of what can happen when a town shows up for its kids.

(Fremont County, WY) - No matter the topic, Randy Tucker probably has a story about it. Especially when it comes to Wyoming's vast history. Several of them, you can scroll through and find via his County 10 author tab. But when the topic is too extensive for a website post, why not write a few hundred pages instead? That's the approach Tucker took whilst researching a 124-mile stage and freight line that connected Rawlins to Fort Washakie from 1878 to 1906. Randy researched dozens stories about the trail through historic newspapers, rare photographs and family tales that have been passed down. Randy has two book signing events coming up in Fremont County. On Tuesday, November 18th at the Riverton Museum from 6:00 p.m. - 7:00 p.m. and Thursday, November 20th at the Lander Pioneer Museum from 6:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. To hear more about the ideas behind the book, click the player below or search for the County 10 Podcast anywhere you listen to podcasts!
