Good morning, Gillette.

On Tuesday, June 24, the Campbell County Fire Department answered four calls—two medical responses on North Brooks Avenue, one medical response on West Valley Drive, and a gas odor call on Beaver Drive—and has handled 1,503 service requests this year.

The Boys and Girls Club of Campbell County will hold its 25th Children's Charity Golf Tournament on Saturday, June 28 at 8 a.m.; teams of four will play 18 holes to win prizes and a drawing for a one-night stay at the Lodge at Deadwood (registration fees range from $500 to $700).

So far, 29 teams have signed up, and club leaders say the event (their largest fundraiser) will help fund kids' programs.

The Campbell County Parks and Recreation Department plans a full day of July 4 events in Gillette that starts with a pancake feed at 6 a.m. at the Campbell County Fire Department’s Rohan Ave station and ends with fireworks at 10 p.m. at Cam-Plex — a 4-mile race, parade, and family fun at Bicentennial Park are also scheduled.

A federal lawsuit challenging Wyoming’s new voter registration law — which will require proof of state residency and US citizenship — is underway as Equality State Policy Center, represented by Elias Law Group, seeks a preliminary injunction to block the law from taking effect on July 1. Secretary of State Chuck Gray, defended by Dhillon Law Group and Gessler Blue, requested a three-week extension to file his response — a move that could lead to a lengthy legal contest.

Officials say Wyoming is facing a big shortage of firefighters — special fire districts find it hard to hire and keep workers.

They worry the lack of firefighters may lead to more large wildfires across the state.
