There are lots of activities set for this weekend, today in particular, in and around the Casper area. Many of those are planned for outdoors, however, and you may want to call ahead to be sure they are still taking place.

If the soggy conditions prevent some events from taking place, there is plenty to do indoors as well.

Here is a summary, as provided by organizers:
