  • Summary

  • Good morning, this is your Bend Local Frequency for Thursday, February 27, 2025. We're starting off with some exciting news from the world of sports. The 2025 State Swimming Championships kicked off this weekend, and several Central Oregon swimmers had a ton of success. Local swimmers showcased their skills, and we're proud to see them making waves in the competition.

    In other sports news, the Summit Storm continues to dominate the second half of the season. They battled past Ridgeview, with standout performances from Foster Kettering and Will. The Storm also secured a key IMC victory, defeating Redmond for the second time this season, 58-54. Meanwhile, the Trinity Lutheran Saints are in their first year in 2A and, despite losing a big-time player, are still dominating. They celebrated a significant win on Wednesday, and we're looking forward to seeing how their season unfolds.

    Moving on to community events, today is a special day at the High Desert Museum. The Museum & Me event provides a quieter time for children and adults who experience physical, intellectual, and/or social disabilities to enjoy the museum after hours. Explore the newest exhibitions and revisit your favorites, with sensory packs available to borrow.

    Looking ahead to the weekend, Bendi Gras is coming to town from February 28 to March 2. This Mardi Gras celebration brings music, food, and revelry across Bend, promising a fun-filled weekend for everyone.

    For those who love the outdoors, there's plenty to look forward to. The Snowshoe with a Ranger program at Mt. Bachelor offers donation-based 90-minute interpretive tours, where you can learn about winter ecology and the geology of Central Oregon. And on March 7, don't miss the Pride Bonfire Snowshoe Tour, a magical night gathered around a glowing bonfire, celebrating Winter PrideFest and inclusivity in the outdoors.

    In the world of arts and entertainment, Mountain View High School is thrilled to announce its upcoming production of Matilda the Musical, running from February 28 to March 9. This captivating stage adaptation of Roald Dahl's beloved novel is sure to delight audiences of all ages.

    Finally, if you're planning your spring activities, the BendNest Calendar is packed with fun events for families. From kids' yoga teacher training to family story time at the library, and from board game social clubs to musical performances, there's something for everyone in Bend this spring.
