Good morning, Gillette. Here's your local news at a glance for Tuesday, the 2nd of December.

COMMUNITY NEWS

  • After a five-year break, Boy Scout Troop 64 is back selling Christmas trees in Gillette — the troop began its sale after Gillette saw its first sticky snow over the past weekend.

ECONOMY NEWS

  • Campbell County gas prices fell 5 cents to $2.82 per gallon this week, with some stations in Gillette selling fuel as low as $2.78—experts say rising oil production and completed refinery maintenance may keep prices low during the holiday season.  County 17
  • A new study finds Wyoming residents need to earn almost $96K a year to live comfortably as costs for rent, groceries, and child care rise—Wyoming's actual median incomes remain much lower.
