‘Oceans’ movie opens Earth Day
“Oceans” continues the Disneynature tradition started with “Earth” last year — a big-screen nature film opening on Earth Day.
If you’re so inclined, you can catch it in Boulder, Louisville or Longmont this Earth Day (Thursday, April 22). Here are your local “Oceans” showtimes for Thursday.

The end of the road for the Lynx

RTD passengers traveling between Broomfield and Louisville may be out of luck soon as RTD plans to cut the Lynx bus route.
The route, which first starting running in the summer of 2008, was funded primarily through a two-year Federal Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality grant.
City officials hoped that the Lynx would be successful so RTD would agree to take over the service once the federal grant ran out. Unfortunately, the route averages only five riders per hour and has not been nearly successful enough to make the cut.
