Good morning, Sheridan.

The Ramaco Foundation supported Toys for Tots—Sheridan Chapter and The Food Group in Sheridan this past holiday season.

The foundation thanked the organizations for their dedication to helping families in need.

Missing People of Wyoming began as a Facebook group in 2019 and has grown into a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that partners with law enforcement and families to support missing person cases statewide.

Its new law (effective July 1) and last seen map add needed structure to a once-chaotic process.

Sheridan Community Land Trust is asking local residents to help preserve everyday history with its valued Explore History program and new Telling Our Stories oral project.

The volunteer-driven effort invites community members to share and record their memories.

Ag columnist Dennis Sun says farmers will face a mixed year in 2026 with strong cattle prices and rising farmland values provided weather and policy hold steady — USDA funding delays and reduced slaughter capacity add further risk to an optimistic outlook.

Wyoming released a pro-rodeo specialty license plate Friday as a tongue-in-cheek response to PETA’s earlier request; funds from sales will support rodeo and college programs.

WYDOT unveiled the plate Wednesday — a move led by Sen. Boner to honor the state’s rodeo heritage.

Health care advocates will celebrate Monday’s announcement that Wyoming will receive $205 million in federal Rural Health Transformation Project funds, with policy work set to advance in early 2026 (aiming to improve rural care).

Researchers at Lund University and the University of Tokyo noted a rise in 'biophobia' among urban residents — a fear that mental health counselor Ashley Skates in Wyoming said she has not seen locally, while backcountry guide Kipp Saile expressed skepticism and noted that guided trips help visitors overcome unease.
