43rd Annual Capitol Tree Lighting
43rd Annual Capitol Tree Lighting
The Arc of Laramie County invites you to the 43rd Annual Capitol Tree Lighting on December 3, 2025, from 11:00 AM to 11:45 AM at the Capitol Rotunda. This longstanding community tradition brings together state leaders, advocates, families, and community members to raise awareness for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities while promoting inclusion and fundamental human rights across Wyoming.
The ceremony features a tree lighting, a performance by the East High Choir, and a presentation about The Arc’s mission and advocacy work. This event provides direct access to state officials, community leaders, and students from across Wyoming, making it a strategic opportunity for networking and learning about disability rights initiatives in the state.
For over four decades, this event has served as a cornerstone of our community calendar, demonstrating Wyoming’s commitment to dignity and belonging for all citizens. Your attendance supports The Arc’s ongoing work to protect fundamental human rights and advance inclusion for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. This is both a celebration of progress made and a call to action for the work ahead.

Bowling 2026
2026 Bowling Dates Confirmed
We have confirmed bowling dates for 2026:
January 10th, January 24th, February 21st, March 7th, March 28th, April 4th, April 25th, and May 9th. All events take place at Two Bar and are organized by The Arc of Laramie County.
Sign-up will take place on Wednesday, November 19th, before our dinner and board game events.
Sign-up is first-come, first-served and must be in person. Members get priority sign-up from 5:00-6:00 PM. During this time, only those with current memberships may sign up. Sign-up opens **at 6:00 PM** for non-members. Bowlers do not need to be present to sign up. Caretakers and family may sign them up. Phone sign-ups will be accepted only after November 19th if spots remain.
Only commit to a team if you can make most dates. Having to move people to other lanes due to a lack of attendance is hard on everyone, especially your teammates. We have room for 93 bowlers maximum. If you can’t commit to attending most weeks, consider being a substitute. Subs will be assigned a lane if there is room on the day of the event.
We will have one bumper lane for those whose ball goes 10 mph and under, one youth lane for those 18 and under, one ramp lane for those needing a ramp (you must tell us at sign-up), three wheelchair-accessible lanes that accommodate 3 bowlers each, and the remaining lanes that accommodate 4 bowlers each. The bumper, youth, and ramp lanes accommodate 4 bowlers each.
Check-in runs from 12:30 to 12:50 PM. Only on-time arrivals will be allowed to bowl.
Bowling starts at 1:00 PM. Bowlers are given 2 hours to complete 2 games.
The cost is $8.00 for members and $10.00 for non-members. Membership must be current to receive the member rate. If you are unsure if your membership is current, contact us. We cannot take membership renewals at the bowling alley. Payment is due at check-in. You must be able to pay to bowl at that session. We cannot accept late payments. Checks should be made out to The Arc of Laramie County. A $0.50 fee per bowler applies if you pay by credit card.
The bowling alley will offer a burger meal starting at $8.00, which includes burgers, fries, and drinks. Cheese and garden burgers are extra. Bowlers should sit at the numbered tables that match their lane number. Parents, providers, and spectators should use other tables while cheering on your bowler. Some of our bowlers have mobility issues and need to be close to their lane, so let them sit at their lane tables. Extra chairs are available. Return them when you are done.
Members, parents, and providers must ensure that your lane is clean upon leaving the bowling alley. This includes putting away any extra chairs you get out, throwing away your trash, and putting the balls back. The bowling alley provides us with a clean area when we start, so give them the same respect when we leave. We want to continue to be welcome there.
