2018 CHAMBER OF COMMERCE

AWARDS OF EXCELLENCE

Key Service AWA R D

March Against Family Violence

Advocacy & Resource Center

T

This award honors a Chamber member nonprofit organization that has made a significant impact in Sheridan County: a nonprofit that serves with enthusiasm and dedication, addressing needs in the community and aligning the vision of its organization for maximum effectiveness.

he Advocacy & Resource Center was founded as a grassroots movement in the 1980s when women in Sheridan County found a need for an organization to help women suffering from violence. Originally called the Women’s Center, the Advocacy & Resource Center opened its doors on the second floor of where the WYO Performing Arts and Education Center is currently located on Sheridan’s Main Street. The center moved to its current location at 136 Coffeen Ave. in 1983. In 1998, the center’s name was changed to the Advocacy & Resource Center and services were expanded to assist all people, not just women, affected by violent crimes in Sheridan County. Today, the Advocacy & Resource Center exists to empower people affected by domestic violence, sexual assault and other forms of violence to realize lives of safety, choice and freedom. “As a nonprofit organization, we provide free services to victims of violent crimes,” Executive Director Yvonne Swanson, said. “The crimes may be domestic violence, sexual assault, stalking, home invasion, homicide, DUI accidents, burglary, larceny, theft and others. Our services include, but are not limited to, crisis intervention, emergency shelter, food, transportation, help navigating the criminal justice system, information about protection orders and support.” In addition to its services, Advocacy & Resource Center provides 6

I

CO M M U N ITY G U I D E & C H A M B ER M EM B ER D I R EC TO R Y

awareness activities, trainings and events throughout the year. Those who have used the center’s services often wish to remain anonymous but are happy to sing its praises: “I cannot say enough good things about the Advocacy & Resource Center,” one client said. “The services they provide are such an asset to Sheridan. I was treated with respect and understanding and given the push I needed to stand up for myself.” “Several years ago, my family’s life was turned upside down,” another client said. “The Advocacy & Resource Center was right there. They explained what our options were and continued helping us navigate each unfamiliar step as we went. My family would have been completely lost had it not been for the Advocacy & Resource Center.” In 2018, the center welcomed Swanson as the new executive director with 12 years of victim service experience and expanded the staff to better serve the county of Sheridan. In addition to the center’s satellite office at the Sheridan County Attorney’s Office, the center obtained office space at Sheridan College to give students on campus access to services. A co-facilitator of the reorganization of the Sheridan County Coalition Against Violence, the center has also partnered with Sheridan High School to add two days of dating violence prevention and healthy relationship information to the health class curriculum. ■


Business Person of the year

AWA R D

Jessica Garrelts Cottonwood Kitchen + Home This award honors a Chamber member business person who shows outstanding business acumen and strong leadership in business and community efforts. This person is a champion for economic development, constantly strives to exceed customer expectations, delivers industry leading standards of service and quality and exhibits innovation in business development.

J

essica Garrelts’ love of food and desire to connect with people through a carefully crafted meal began as a child in her Italian grandmother’s kitchen. This passion continued to grow while working at The Cottonwood Shop, a local kitchen and home store, while home during college breaks. Jessica and her husband, Jeff, purchased The Cottonwood Shop in 2011, with Jessica managing it full time and turning it into a staple for locals and a must-see for visitors. When the store outgrew its space, the Garrelts took over the former JCPenney building in 2017 and painstakingly restored and renovated the building, bringing back its former beauty while adding modern touches, including a full commercial kitchen for cooking classes and community events. “Being a local and also having studied interior design in strong collaboration with architects and historic preservationists, something I am most proud of is giving that so very special landmark building the TLC it so desperately needed,” Jessica Garrelts said. “As much of the work and materials as possible were provided by other local businesses, which is another important focus for us. And of course, it doesn’t get more local than pouring so much of your own blood, sweat and tears into it, and we did just that.” The new Cottonwood Kitchen + Home opened in September 2018. Business success, service and giving back to the community are all intertwined for Garrelts. “How I serve my community is through my heart,” Garrelts said. “I often joke that I’m not your stereotypical business person as I probably check on the contentment of my co-workers, the extent of the experiences we are creating and the quality of impact we are making more than I check my sales.”

Jessica Garrelts

Garrelts is thrilled that the teaching kitchen has evolved into a collaborative space where she and the Cottonwood staff are able to connect and help showcase so many other local businesses. “Having a business in downtown Sheridan offers me a very direct way to give back to the place that has given so much to me,” Garrelts said. “I think too often we measure success by financial or material contributions when truly it can be as simple as just committing to making sure every person that walks through your doors leaves with a bigger smile than when they came in.” Cottonwood is a longtime Chamber member and a Gold Community Partner since 2017. Garrelts is a member of the Chamber’s Board of Directors and contributes to the Chamber’s annual fundraiser and donates time to the Downtown Sheridan Association. “Sometimes the endless hours of work a small business owner puts in is trying; it often takes guts but rarely is done for the glory,” Garrelts said. “I’ve come to realize that what we are doing here is so much more than just selling ‘stuff.’ What we are selling are experiences, reasons to give, to create and to share our love and our lives. Selling you a Marcato Hand Crank Pasta Machine…now, it’s not about the margins, it’s about the memories and it feels so good. “I am transported back to my grandmother’s kitchen, helping her to transform her handmade pasta dough into silky strands of fresh noodles just as I do now, some 25 years later with that very same machine. Being able to provide quality products that will be passed down from generation to generation along with all the love that goes with them, that to me is an accomplishment.” ■ WWW.SHERIDANWYOMINGCHAMBER.ORG

Amy Albrecht

proud Wyoming transplant since 1992, Amy Albrecht serves as the executive director of the Center for a Vital Community at Sheridan College. Prior to her role at the CVC, Albrecht co-owned an advertising and public relations firm in Sheridan. The CVC is a program of Sheridan College as well as a standalone nonprofit organization whose mission is to engage citizens to strengthen the community. The CVC’s work focuses on leadership training, nonprofit support and identifying and moving community initiatives forward. Albrecht credits the CVC’s CiViC Leadership Project with giving her the confidence to apply for the position she now holds. “The great thing about my job is that if I don’t know something or someone, I know someone else who does,” Albrecht said. “I hook people up. I love to introduce people to each other who can advance their work and ideas. As a neutral convener, the CVC is a great avenue for important conversations and to gather people together around an issue.” In addition to her work with the CVC, Albrecht is a recent graduate of Leadership Sheridan County and is a founding member of The Food Group, which seeks to alleviate childhood hunger in Sheridan County by providing food on the weekends. Since its inception eight years ago, the organization has grown from feeding 150 kids on the weekend to 485 kids. The group also provides summer books, Little Free Pantries and Teen Pantries. Placed outside schools and around the community, the pantries use recycled news8

paper stands to hold food and hygiene items that are available for anyone in need. As the current chair of the Wyoming Nonprofit Network, Albrecht has helped bring the WY Nonprofit Symposium, a statewide nonprofit conference, to Sheridan, as well as increased advocacy and education for both local and statewide nonprofits. “I think it’s important to give back to your community, especially if you want to affect change,” Albrecht explained. “There are few things that make me angrier than listening to people complain about decisions that are being made without getting involved. I love the work of the Chamber and see the organization as vital to the success of Sheridan County’s businesses. It’s proactive and forward-thinking and always a critical voice at any table discussing the future of Sheridan County.” When talking with people about Albrecht, one word comes up over and over again: connector. “Amy loves Sheridan. She is a known connector. Her energy and personality result in her knowing many people; when you couple this knowledge with her natural ability to listen, she is an invaluable resource for connecting the right people at the right time. The result is often magical.” Albrecht says she is deeply honored to be considered a leader. “I see myself as a leader in small groups but not necessarily as a leader in the community,” she said. “I love being a part of working groups that are working toward the continued success of Sheridan County and its residents.” ■

This award honors a Chamber member business or organization that has a long and distinguished tenure in the community (20+ years): an organization that demonstrates consistent service, continually invests in the community and demonstrates sustained quality performance.

Whitney Benefits, Inc.

heridan area benefactor Edward A. Whitney willed his estate to establish Whitney Benefits, Inc., creating the first educational foundation in Wyoming. Per his will, the foundation was established in 1927, 10 years after

his death. According to his original trustees, Whitney spent three decades of his life planning his gift to the people of Sheridan County. He made extensive investigations in the East as to how trust funds were structured for education and repeatedly asked his three associates, later to become the trustees of his estate, for suggestions. “My estate does not belong to me; I’m only its steward: it belongs to the people and I dare not be careless with it,” Edward A. Whitney said. In his last will and testament, Whitney directed the corporation to do three things: 1. Fund a community center in Sheridan. Whitney helped establish and fund the Sheridan County YMCA, built the original Sheridan Ice rink and built and maintains Whitney Commons Park. 2. Establish a college in Sheridan. Whitney donated the land Sheridan College sits on today and has donated more than $85 million to help fund several of its projects, buildings and educational programs. 3. Create a student loan program for worthy and needy students. Since inception of the program in 1928, through June 30, 2018, the corporation had loaned 5,926 students approximately $43,462,931. For the fiscal year that ended June 30, 2018, Whitney approved interest-free loans totaling just more than $2,297,242 to 112 students. As of June 30, 2018, Whitney had in excess of $12,696,229 in student loan monies loaned and/or committed to Sheridan and Johnson County students.

In addition to Whitney’s three priorities, Whitney Benefits serves to improve Sheridan County in many other ways. Since 2004, Whitney Benefits has gifted the city of Sheridan in excess of 50 million gallons of stored Park Reservoir water yearly to assist in watering Sheridan’s 13 parks, pathways and greenways. The foundation also purchased the area that is now Whitney Plaza to revitalize and re-purpose that area as an extension of downtown Sheridan. Whitney Plaza offers retail, office and residential property and has nearly 500 parking spaces for various community and business uses. In 2014, Whitney Benefits committed to the largest gift in the history of Sheridan College in the amount of $25.3 million. The commitment from Whitney Benefits to Sheridan College included the necessary $1.3 million required to complete the $8 million Mars Agriculture and Science Center renovation project, $16 million to support the renovation and expansion of the fine and performing arts wing of the original Whitney Building, $2 million to support infrastructure and parking improvements on the main campus and $6 million for approximately half of the Tech Center renovation and expansion project. Community members sing the foundation’s praises: “Whitney Benefits has made college possible for generations in our area,” one member said. “It goes without saying, Whitney Benefits has been hugely influential in the growth and expansion of people, businesses and the buildings we go to learn and work and play in Sheridan,” another added Since 1927, when Whitney Benefits was created, 97 dedicated individuals have served on the Whitney Benefits Board of Trustees. Altogether, the Whitney trustees to date have dedicated more than 1,096 years of service supporting education and building our Sheridan community. ■ WWW.SHERIDANWYOMINGCHAMBER.ORG

Chamber Award of E X C EL L EN C E

Scott Shreev of Kennon Products shows the top half of an RB211 engine cover, which will eventually be sold to United Airlines.

K

ennon Products is an employee-owned company that manufactures products and provides engineering services to a multitude of markets including: Department of Defense, commercial/general/ military aviation, NASA and behavioral health care. The company is inspired by and committed to the protection of high-value assets, from aircraft and other essential equipment to the most important asset: life. Kennon’s products are designed, developed and produced right here in Sheridan. Kennon was founded by Paul Kennon Chaney and Ron Kensey in a small rented garage in Temple City, California, in 1984. The company’s flagship product was the Kennon Sunshield, an insulative product that protects aircraft interior from ultraviolet and heat damage caused by the sun. This quickly became a best seller and remains a popular product to this day. Chaney left the company to focus on his construction business and, in 1989, Kensey moved the company to Sheridan for quality of life reasons. Recognizing the need to diversify, Kennon expanded its offerings to include other protective covers for general aviation aircraft. In 1995, an aerospace engineer from Wright Patterson Air Force Base contacted Kennon about producing sunshields for the F-15s deployed in the Gulf War. Access to military aircraft platforms quickly increased the company’s offerings. The company produced sunshields for all Department of Defense aircraft and soon moved into other protective coverings still offered today. In 2006, Kennon hired its first engineer and began its foray into the research and development realm. The company began applying for Small Business Innovation Research grants to help develop new technologies. Kennon has achieved above-average success in gaining SBIR grant awards, and is notably successful in developing SBIR projects to full commercialization. Kennon’s entry into the behavioral health market began in 2009, when staff from the local Sheridan Veterans Affairs Health Care System approached the company looking for an anti-ligature solution to patient bathroom doors and shower curtains. The result was

This award honors a large business Chamber member that maintains consistent growth and strong performance, understands its customer, has an engaged workforce with effective leadership and is continually innovating to support future growth. This business not only invests in its continued success but also invests its resources in the success of the community.

Large Business

Kennon Products the Soft Suicide Prevention Door. In the last two years, the Joint Commission, an accreditation body in the behavioral health sector, has implemented stricter requirements for ligature-resistant products. This has resulted in an enormous demand for the SSPD, now Kennon’s lead seller. The company currently has three significant engineering efforts: KC-46 Thermal Radiation Shields, Navy LPUs and V-22 Composite Armor Systems. All three are slated to begin production between late 2019 and mid-2021. Kennon strives for excellence in innovative manufacturing and engineering, while cultivating leaders in its industry and the community. There is great opportunity to achieve this in Sheridan. Although Kennon offers services and supplies products internationally, community involvement and local contributions are an important part of the company culture. The company and its employees volunteer more than 2,600 hours and provide $70,000 in charitable contributions annually. Perhaps the most significant accomplishment this year was the increase in staffing. In 2017, Kennon employed 20 production employees. To accommodate the continued increase in production demands and the lack of space to add production workstations and staffing, Kennon added a second shift in March 2018. Total production staffing for the two shifts was expected to be 26-30 by the end of 2018. Kennon engineering and administrative staffing consisted of 17 employees in 2017 with an expected increase to 22 employees by the end of 2018. Kennon’s retention rate is higher than industry standards with only one employee departing the company after the 90-day trial period in the past year due to retirement. ■ WWW.SHERIDANWYOMINGCHAMBER.ORG

Chamber Award of E X C EL L EN C E

Landon’s Saturday Market

This award honors a small business Chamber member that demonstrates steady growth, solid leadership and a strong commitment to the success of the Sheridan area. This business shows innovation in strategic planning, employee development and customer service and is actively involved in the betterment of the community.

L

andon’s Greenhouse & Nursery is somewhat unusual among modern-day garden centers. Most no longer grow plants but order from wholesalers. However, Landon’s has an extensive production facility at the original Landon’s Greenhouse location on Landon Lane off Highway 335, in addition to the retail store across from Sheridan College. Every year, Landon’s grows hundreds of thousands of plants. With each plant, they focus on quality; in fact, their motto is, “Where quality counts.” While selling plants may be their business, what they really treasure are people: the customers who have become lifelong friends; the employees who, in some cases, started with them as teenagers and now manage a huge department; the “retired ladies” who work seasonally at the production facility and are so fond of one another that they meet regularly for luncheons; and lately, the farmers market vendors who have become an important part of the Landon’s family. Landon’s Greenhouse was founded in 1978 by Kathy and Jack Landon Jr. In those days, if you lived in Wyoming, you mostly did it all yourself: It was impossible to get trucks to come here with the small volume a business might sell. So, out of necessity and passion, the Landons and subsequent owners grew their own plants from seeds, cuttings and division. While the market has changed and some of the most spectacular annuals are propagated via tissue culture (Landon’s orders these patented plants in as plugs), the old-timey growing facility on Landon Lane remains a popular destination for tour groups from area schools. In 1997, Wayne Gray, his sister, Janelle Gray, and her husband, Phil Gilmore, purchased Landon’s Greenhouse from the Landons. As the business grew, the three partners bought land closer to town and opened the new store in 2001. In 2012, Keith and Jennifer Kershaw left successful careers at Oregon Pride Nursery in Oregon and partnered with Phil and Janelle, while Wayne retired. Today, in addition to a two-bay store, Landon’s has nine hoop houses between the two locations, plus a seasonal greenhouse in Gillette. They employ 6-12 people year-round, and in spring, their 12

workforce swells to around 60 for a couple of months. Aside from all of the plants, Landon’s sells nearly anything related to gardening and offers a full-service landscaping department. Over the years, Landon’s has had a hand in much of the beautification of Sheridan County, donating Trees for Trash seedlings, planting trees for the city’s Arbor Day celebration, serving on the Tree Board and participating in Chamber events. Landon’s regularly sends employees to trade shows and seminars with the intent that they keep abreast of market trends and encourages employees to gain appropriate professional certifications. Landon’s currently has three ISA certified arborists and seven Master Gardeners. Keith Kershaw is an ASHS Certified Horticulturist. As the local foods movement gained momentum in the early 2000s, Landon’s sought ways to become involved, first hosting a small market during the summer. Today, up to 12 vendors attend Landon’s Saturday Market nearly every week of the year, and in the fall, Landon’s, the vendors and the Downtown Sheridan Association host a Harvest Festival. Landon’s also sponsors an annual garden tour. The folks at Landon’s said they are deeply honored to have been nominated for this award and hope to continue to be a vital part of the Sheridan community for many years to come. ■

Gen. Philip SHERIDAN The man behind the city’s namesake BY RYAN PATTERSON

W

ar often creates bonds for life. In the case of John Loucks and Gen. Philip Sheridan, the connection has lasted far after both of their lives ended. As a member of the Union Army during the Civil War, Sheridan safely commanded thousands of soldiers in battle. Loucks was one of those servicemen. About 15 years after the war ended, Loucks traveled south from present day Miles City, Montana, to what was then called the Wyoming Territory. Loucks saw the beautiful landscape and fell in love with the rivers, valleys and ranch land, all surrounded by mountains. Shortly after, he decided to construct a town and name it after his Civil War commander. Hence, in 1882, the town of Sheridan was born. “Loucks had a great affection for him and a great respect for him, and so he simply named Sheridan after the general in the Civil War that he fought under,” said local historian Mary Ellen McWilliams, who serves as an adviser and volunteer for the Sheridan County Historical Society and Museum and the Fort Phil Kearny/Bozeman Trail Association. More than 135 years later, the community has grown to a population approaching 20,000, sixth-largest in the state. At an altitude of 3,740 feet, Sheridan sits at the lowest elevation of any incorporated town in Wyoming. In her book, “In the Shadow of the Bighorns: A History of Early Sheridan and the Goose Creek Valley of Northern Wyoming,” Cynde Georgen writes that Sheridan was fond of the area soon to bear his name. After viewing the land for the first time in 1881, Sheridan reported to his supervising general that the Goose Creek Valley was an ideal area to raise livestock. Loucks concurred and was one of many settlers who had an affinity for the region. According to Michael Dykhorst’s book, “134 years of Mayors of Sheridan, Wyoming: 1884-2018,” the Wyoming territory was growing around the time Loucks arrived. The population had increased from about 9,000 in 1870 to more than 20,000 in 1880. New communities and settlements were popping up more frequently, and Sheridan joined the party in 1882. 14

CO M M U N ITY G U I D E & C H A M B ER M EM B ER D I R EC TO R Y

Loucks hired Jack Dow of Big Horn to survey the land, then sold the first 40 acres in modern-day downtown Sheridan. The landowners who claimed lots on the first 40 acres still have streets named after them more than 13 decades later: Grinnell, Brundage, Loucks, Works, Burkitt, Brooks, Gould and Scott. The town became incorporated in 1884 — six years before Wyoming became a state — and Loucks served as its first mayor, hosting nearly all political and community events at his home. While Loucks was working to solidify the burgeoning town, Sheridan stayed busy in the military. In 1883, he was appointed general-in-chief of the U.S. Army. Five years later, he was promoted to the rank of general of the Army during President Grover Cleveland’s term. Sheridan has always been the county seat. Georgen said the town easily won the vote between Sheridan, Big Horn and Dayton after separating from Johnson County in 1888. That was the same year of Sheridan’s death via multiple heart attacks at age 57. But as his physical form expired, Sheridan’s lasting legacy was just beginning. A plethora of places around the country bear Sheridan’s honorific, largely because of the admiration from his brothers in arms. “He was a popular guy with his troops,” said Georgen, also the superintendent at the Trail End State Historic Site. In addition to Wyoming, four other states have a Sheridan County: Nebraska, North Dakota, Kansas and Montana. Towns of Sheridan exist in Colorado, Montana, Arkansas, Oregon, Indiana and Illinois as well, though none of them have nearly as large a population as Sheridan, Wyoming. Sheridan isn’t just present in name. Physical homages to him exist in different forms, as well. The only equestrian Civil War statue in Ohio, located in the town of Somerset, recognizes Sheridan. There is even a Sheridan Glacier, located 15 miles outside of Cordova, Alaska, named in his honor. As a young man facing life or death scenarios, Loucks shared a special affection for Sheridan, his military commander who steered him through numerous life-threatening experiences. More than a century later, the bond remains in northern Wyoming. ■

Sheridan notables share deep history BY RYAN PATTERSON

L

ike Rome, Sheridan wasn’t built in a day. The town came into existence through the sustained effort of many citizens. Meet five of the most notable people who helped make Sheridan the place it is today. JOHN D. LOUCKS Perhaps the man most responsible for Sheridan’s inception, John D. Loucks founded the town in 1882 and became its first mayor from 1884-86. Local historian Mary Ellen McWilliams, who serves as an adviser and volunteer for the Sheridan County Historical Society and Museum and the Fort Phil Kearny/Bozeman Trail Association, said Loucks initially visited the area in 1880 and saw a promising future.

A statue of Edward Whitney passing out books to children sits in Whitney Commons as a tribute to Whitney’s commitment to education.

“He just fell in love with Sheridan and was just determined he was going to make this a town,” McWilliams said. Loucks established the town’s first bank and was a school director and postmaster of Sheridan for a few years. He also founded Sheridan’s first newspaper in 1887, The Sheridan Post, from which The Sheridan Press descended. EDWARD A. WHITNEY “The mystery man is Whitney,” McWilliams said. “... He was just secretive.” Personal details are hard to come by for Edward Whitney, but this much is known: He was born in Massachusetts in 1843, attended school in Europe and fought in the Civil War before eventually coming to Sheridan in 1885. Whitney became the second mayor of Sheridan in 1887 and built a fortune, mainly through banking. In his will, Whitney prioritized granting low-interest student loans and creating and maintaining a college in Sheridan through his trust, Whitney Benefits. The trust began with $750,000 in 1927 and now has more than $100 million in reserves. It helped fund a local park, ice rink and a multitude of college buildings. Northern Wyoming Community College District President Paul Young said Sheridan College would look drastically different without Whitney Benefits. “We would be much more of a run-of-the-mill two-year college like you would find anywhere else in America,” Young said. HENRY A. COFFEEN Henry A. Coffeen made a significant impact on local and state events after moving to Big Horn in 1884. He served as Sheridan’s third mayor in 1888. Coffeen also represented Sheridan during the process to make Wyoming the country’s 44th state in 1890 and was Wyoming’s representative to Congress from 1893-95. 18

I

CO M M U N ITY G U I D E & C H A M B ER M EM B ER D I R EC TO R Y


Later, Coffeen donated about 4,000 books to establish Sheridan’s first library. He also served on the University of Wyoming’s board of trustees from 1908-11. Before moving to Wyoming, Coffeen was a college professor in Ohio and a school superintendent and library director in Illinois. Wayne Schatz, treasurer for the Sheridan County School District 2 Board of Trustees, taught at Coffeen Elementary from 1969-80 and helped remodel a plaque of Henry Coffeen located in the elementary school currently bearing his full name, which opened in 2014. “It’s going to stay there forever, I hope,” Schatz said. JOHN B. KENDRICK A self-made rancher, businessman and legislator, John Kendrick’s influence stretched far and wide. He initially came to Wyoming from Texas in the late 1870s. He started the OW Ranch in 1887, which still functions today in southern Montana. Kendrick co-founded the town’s second bank in 1889, which specialized in mortgage loans. He was also a state legislator from 1910-14. In 1915, Kendrick was elected the state’s ninth governor. As governor, Kendrick established the state’s workman’s compensation system and public utilities, extended women’s rights and helped uncover illegal leasing of oil reserves. He also helped promote irrigation land use and protection of natural resources. After two years as governor, Kendrick served as a U.S. senator from 1917-33. “His accomplishments that relate to Wyoming are just spectacular,” McWilliams said. “… His whole history is spectacular.” The Kendrick family moved into the mansion known as Trail End in Sheridan in 1913. Later in life, Kendrick donated land for a park and a golf course that bear his name.

A portrait of John B. Kendrick hangs in the living room at Trail End State Historical Site.

CORNELIUS H. GRINNELL A highly successful businessman, Grinnell made a fortune in the late 1800s through land, cattle and coal mining. He owned the Grinnell Stone Company, the Wrench Ranch, the Higby coal mine and other large tracts of land on the northeast side of Sheridan. Grinnell was also on the board directors of the town’s original bank, the aptly named First Bank of Sheridan. He also formed the Sheridan Fuel Company with business partners. For longevity, Grinnell was one of several landowners who claimed land in the initial 40 acres of Sheridan, which explains why three blocks and two streets downtown are named after him. ■

“Sheridan’s a fun little place.” ~ HALEY BALTZ

Families explain why they chose Sheridan County BY ASHLEIGH FOX

S

heridan County attracts a wide array of people, from retaining those who grew up here to others moving here for a simpler way of life after living in larger cities. Stellar school systems, a slower pace and year-round outdoor opportunities draw people of all age groups and family types to the base of the Bighorns.

THE BALTZES Haley Baltz grew up in Kaycee and ventured into the big city of Denver for a college education in physical therapy. She and her husband then moved to Williston, North Dakota, for her husband’s job in the oil and gas industry. After four years in western North Dakota, Baltz received a job offer from Sheridan Physical Therapy, and her husband started work in construction in the Sheridan area. They had found a home. The Baltz family, including their two young children, live on the border of Sheridan and Big Horn. Their two girls attend pre-kindergarten and third grade in Sheridan County School District 1. When choosing a location for their children to attend school, the allure of having Fridays off drew the family to Big Horn. CONTINUED ON PAGE 24

Child care in high demand

F

BY ASHLEIGH FOX

amilies regularly compete to fill the slots open in child care facilities in Sheridan County. The limited availability of child care forces some families to join waiting lists before children are even born. In 2014, children 17 and younger made up 6,481 of the tabulated 30,032 citizens of Sheridan County, according to statistics presented by the 2016 Wyoming Kids Count Data Book produced by the Wyoming Community Foundation. Twenty-six percent, or 1,696 of those 6,481, were between 0 and 5 years old, while 4,785 — 74 percent — were between 6 and 17 years old. Carla Trier, who operates the Sheridan Foster Parent Exchange, sees many families relying on family members to care for children not yet old enough for school. For those without families to rely on, though, day care, preschool and early childhood development centers carry the load when it comes to caring for kids while parents work. Trier praised the Child Development Center Region II in Sheridan for their work with young children. The center accepts children from birth to 2 years old and children 3-5 years of age for free developmental screenings. Those screenings — offered in Sheridan and Johnson counties — review vision, hearing, communication, cognitive, social and emotional development and fine/gross motor skills. Depending on the outcome of the screening, the CDC may accept a child into its infant and toddler program, 3- to 5-year-old program or preschool program. “Not every community has that resource, but we’re fortunate enough to (have it),” Trier said. Other local child care centers include First Light Early Education Center for children 6 weeks and older, Healthy Sprouts Daycare with a nourishing menu, Marion Daycare for children ages 2-10, Noah’s Ark Christian Preschool for 3- to 5- year-old children, and the Tongue River Child’s Place. Each facility brings different strengths to the community for parents to work through. Although Sheridan’s child care options are in high demand, flourishing and high-quality care keeps families functioning day-to-day. ■ 24

Haley Baltz, center, enjoys breakfast with her two daughters, Shay, left, and Harper. The family utilizes Fridays off from school to spend time together.

“[Those are] some of the good things about Sheridan in general is they’ve just got a wicked good school system,” Baltz said. “Whether you’re in District 1 or District 2, they just can’t go wrong.” The Baltz family spends a large amount of time outdoors. Haley Baltz mentioned the Bighorn Mountain Wild and Scenic Trail Run and Dead Swede bike race as great opportunities for Sheridan to bring in people from all over the world. “It’s a no-brainer; Sheridan’s a good spot,” Baltz said. “The mountains, it’s close to lakes — we love to go to lakes, Lake DeSmet, Tongue River Reservoir — so the outdoor activities are huge.” No matter the season, the family can be seen traversing a mountain trail, in snow or sunshine. The girls also frequent the facility for gymnastics in Buffalo, which provides additional options for activities. There is also a gymnastics facility in Sheridan, Tongue River Twisters, which will host the state competition this year. In turn, Baltz also said Buffalo citizens have closer options for health care in Sheridan. “From a medical standpoint, we have a lot of people that come from Buffalo to go to the orthopedic center here and the Welch Cancer Center,” Baltz said. “It makes it really nice for people to come here for medical reasons, that used to go to Casper, that have the availability here now.” CONTINUED ON PAGE 28

Rooted in arts and culture

BY CARRIE HADERLIE

estled in the Bighorns is a treasure trove of arts and cultural opportunities, where world-renowned artists showcase their work and novice creators find inspiration. Sheridan County’s resources are unique because of their sustainability. “Many communities have vibrant art and cultural scenes in the U.S., but few communities have the financial support that Sheridan has due to benevolent persons and educational foundations in our community, and in Sheridan County,” said Roy Garber, president of Whitney Benefits, an educational foundation created by the late Edward A. Whitney. Whitney died a century ago in 1918, so Whitney Benefits marked the occasion by holding a celebration at Sheridan College, announcing a gift of $11,369,000 to the college. “The gift is to support faculty in several academic areas including agriculture, machine tool technology, welding technology, diesel technology, general and visual arts, the CNA program and music,” Garber said. “These programs, including the general and visual art programs, were all selected as potential growth areas, and align with local and regional economic development priorities.”

The Edward A. Whitney Gallery at Sheridan College is located in the Whitney Center for the Arts on the Sheridan College campus. Programming in visual arts, music, dance and theater are also housed within the Whitney Center for the Arts, with regular shows available to the public. In addition to the educational work in perpetuity by Whitney Foundation, Sheridan County is home to a vibrant arts community. These opportunities include, but are not limited to: • The Brinton Museum, which presents 19th through 21st century Western and American Indian Art in an ideal setting; • The WYO Performing Arts and Education Center, which has brought countless hours of live entertainment, cultural enrichment and educational opportunities to the greater Sheridan community; • SAGE Community Arts, which holds the mission to inspire and build community through the visual arts; • Jentel Foundation, which offers a supportive environment for artists to further their creative development; • and the Ucross Foundation, which aims to foster the creative spirit of deeply committed artists and groups by providing uninterrupted time, studio space, living accommodations and the experience of the majestic high plains while serving as a steward of its historic 20,000-acre ranch. ■ WWW.SHERIDANWYOMINGCHAMBER.ORG

Even with all Sheridan has to offer, Baltz still feels like Sheridan is Wyoming’s best-kept secret. “I’m really glad (Interstate) 90 doesn’t run through Sheridan because I think you’d have a lot more people here if it did,” Baltz said. “(Sheridan) is a nice little gem.” Within Sheridan County, Baltz feels attractions such as Colts Unlimited and the Big Horn Equestrian Center remain undiscovered by locals. Still, the iconic draws for Sheridan keep visitors coming back. “Sheridan’s a fun little place,” Baltz said. “Everybody that comes here is always impressed with the downtown.

Top-notch education

BY ASHLEIGH FOX heridan is known for its stellar school systems, from the moment students step into pre-kindergarten through graduation from Sheridan College. Sheridan County includes three school districts: Sheridan County School Districts 1, 2 and 3, as well as a few private school options. SCSD1 includes the Tongue River valley and Big Horn areas, with Big Horn High School, Middle School and Elementary spanning the southern part of Sheridan County, and Tongue River High School, Middle School and Elementary in the north part of the county. Slack Elementary School — a one-room schoolhouse near Parkman, north of Dayton — also falls within SCSD1. SCSD2 encompasses Sheridan High School, John. C. Schiffer Collaborative High School, Sheridan Junior High School, Wright Place Middle School and six elementary schools: Coffeen, Highland Park, Sagebrush, Story, Woodland Park and Meadowlark. SCSD3 stretches further east and includes Arvada-Clearmont High School and Junior High and Clearmont and Arvada elementary schools. Several of Sheridan’s schools have received National Blue Ribbon designations. Sagebrush Elementary received the award in 2009 and 2018; Meadowlark Elementary earned the award in 2012; Coffeen Elementary in 2013, Highland Park Elementary in 2014; and Woodland Park Elementary and Sheridan Junior High School in 2017. Big Horn High School earned the honor in 2011, as well. Residents of Sheridan County, while required to remain in the set districts according to their housing location, may also choose to transfer to a smaller or larger school under certain circumstances. Each school offers something different. All of the local schools offer various activities, sports and clubs. Advanced Placement and dual and concurrent enrollment options are available at most of the high schools in the county. Big Horn High School, in the last two years at least, has had students graduate with their associate degrees from Sheridan College a week before walking across the stage to receive their high school diplomas. For those wishing for an alternative form of high school education, SCSD2 is currently operating and improving the John. C. Schiffer Collaborative School, which holds classes on the Sheridan College campus until construction is completed for a separate building. Students can earn associate degrees from Sheridan College, which boasts strong agriculture, health science and technical degrees and certificates. The college has consistently earned recognition for its succcess and strong relationships in the community. From pre-kindergarten to post-secondary education, Sheridan County provides educational options for all age levels. ■

The family was rewarded with taking over and reestablishing the family business and placing their two boys in a school system that provided big-city opportunities with a small-town feel. “The school district is really amazing,” Gale said. “If we had stayed in Colorado, we would have had to put our kids into private school — which would have been really expensive — or we would have had to really move around to find the district we wanted our kids to be in.” The school system served the family well by encouraging the children to become involved in a variety of sports and clubs. Because of the diversity of activities, one son now balances life as a football player and violinist. The family would joke with Nick Gale about avoiding injury in football to remain healthy for a concert he had soon after. Sheridan County School District 2 begins integrating a music program in the first grade. Because of that, Nadine Gale’s sons were familiar with the WYO Performing Arts and Education Center at a young age. “It’s really nice to be able to take your kids to a show at the theater, and they’re comfortable because they’ve been there with their school or with their parents or somebody else,” Gale said. The slower pace of life fit what the Gales were looking for in the move, and it produced more than just positive opportunities. “I’ve become really good friends with the parents of my sons’ friends because we all go to activities together,” Gale said. The initial culture shock of not having common big-city amenities, like a Starbucks on every corner, startled them at first, but then a familiar feeling of peace settled on their souls. “I started to realize that anxiety was gone that I didn’t even know that I really had,” Gale said. “It’s one of those things that you don’t know is there until it’s not there.” CONTINUED ON PAGE 32

Teamwork for a better Sheridan

F

BY CARRIE HADERLIE

rom the Advocacy & Resource Center to the Wyoming Wilderness Association, Sheridan County is home to hundreds of nonprofits working to improve the community. “Our nonprofit community is so unique,” said Amy Albrecht, director of the Center for a Vital Community at Sheridan College. “While there is an incredible spirit of philanthropy here, there is also a large number of nonprofits vying for those philanthropic dollars. The difference is that instead of a climate of cutthroat competition as in many other towns, it’s about collaboration and mutual support in Sheridan County. It’s a beautiful thing to witness.” At the CVC, the only agenda is the community and engaging citizens to strengthen the place it calls home. A program of Sheridan College, the CVC operates as a nonprofit and raises its own funds for programming and support. It provides leadership training, nonprofit support and helps move community initiatives forward. Throughout the year, local nonprofit organizations have fundraisers and projects on the calendar, from the Downtown Sheridan Association Wine Fest to the Volunteers of America Northern Rockies Empty Bowl, a fundraiser meant to mirror meals many individuals experience in homeless shelters or soup kitchens. There are lightheartedly named events focusing on serious causes, like the Bottom’s Up Bash, which helps raise awareness and funding to fight colon cancer. Compass Center for Families’ annual Light of Hope breakfast honors those who have served children and families in Sheridan County. According to the Wyoming Community Foundation, most charitable donations are made in the last two days of the year. Because so many nonprofits conduct year-end giving campaigns, there can be competition for donations, according to a December news story in The Sheridan Press. However, like Albrecht, Habitat for Humanity of the Eastern Bighorns executive director Christine Dieterich said Habitat does not want to take away from other good causes. Her organization focuses on appealing to donors by advertising its projects and letting donors choose which causes most appeal to them. “We don’t ever want to step on any other nonprofit’s toes and we don’t want to end up in some kind of nonprofit ‘Hunger Games,’” Dieterich said. Sheridan residents truly share their wealth, whether through monetary giving to the multitude of nonprofit options within the county or spending time volunteering for the organizations. ■ WWW.SHERIDANWYOMINGCHAMBER.ORG

Tongue River Valley Community Center

he Tongue River Valley Community Center provides a little bit of everything for just about everyone. From a recreation center and gym to classrooms and exhibits, the center aims to cater to each one of its members. “We are a place where people can come recreate, be educated, socialize and get some cultural opportunities,” TRVCC executive director Erin Kilbride said. “We are a place where people can come and be healthy and meet people.” The TRVCC has two locations — one in Ranchester and a newer one in Dayton. At first, the Ranchester location was intended to be temporary. However, in 2005, when the Schools Facilities Commission decided to erect a new high school in Dayton, the community center seized the opportunity to commandeer the old school for a center in Dayton. But with the community center in Ranchester doing so well at the time, both locations remained opened and now provide double the programming. Both locations have their own unique offerings. The Dayton center has a large gym that can be utilized for basketball, volleyball and pickleball tournaments. The Ranchester location provides a more quaint environment best suited for youth and senior programs throughout the week. “Truly, with both centers, we can provide and do a lot of things that follow our mission,” Kilbride said. A membership to either location, Dayton or Ranchester, is good at the other location, as well as the YMCA in Sheridan. The one area that program director Chad Aksamit and the staff always keep a close eye on is programming for middle and high schoolers. The community centers would like to increase that sector of service. “Annually, we look at what we can do to shore up those programs that are lacking participation,” Aksamit said. The TRVCC works closely with The Hub on Smith to enhance its offerings for the senior population. The center runs a bus to and from The Hub to allow its elderly population to interact with similar-aged people in Sheridan. The TRVCC is truly a multi-purpose facility. It allows people of all ages to engage in numerous activities and fosters an environment for people new to the area to interact with locals who have been rooted in the community for years. ■ 32

Carol and Jim Smith lived in Denver for most of their adult lives, raising one daughter who now lives in Hawaii. The couple and their daughter both feel like Sheridan is the best place in Wyoming. Following retirement, the Smiths went in search of a slower pace of life. Unlike other retirees who fly south for the winter, the Smiths sought out a place with cooler temperatures that still encompasses the beauty of nature and easy access to the outdoors. After working in the oil and gas industry for years and traversing the state, Jim Smith decided that Sheridan was the only good place in Wyoming. The lower wind levels immediately enticed them, as did the bountiful opportunities for golf, with three open courses available throughout the warmer season. The couple settled on a house with no kitchen — which they eventually added — but some of the best views in the county overlooking the Big Horn Equestrian Center and the Bighorn Mountains in Sheridan County. Jim and Carol Smith worked with several realtors throughout the state to help find their home, but they said the one from Sheridan was by far the most helpful in their search. “She showed us the kind of places we were looking at, a pretty good assortment of them,” Carol Smith said. “She understood what we were looking for.” With a house built for entertaining, the Smiths regularly invite guests to share in their home. When not entertaining or golfing, they like to attend any cultural event they can find within Sheridan County. The Smiths frequent book signings hosted by Sheridan Stationery, Books and Gallery; the Whitney Center for the Arts at Sheridan College for the countless free music and arts offerings; showings at the WYO; Third Thursdays; and the endless list of events downtown during any season. The number of activities offered in Sheridan could never amount to those offered in Denver, but the benefit of that small-town atmosphere sells the location for the Smiths. “Denver had a whole lot of stuff going on also, but if you wanted to go with a couple hundred thousand of your best friends, that’s what you were involved with,” Smith said. “So here, even though local people say it’s a little crowded, it’s nothing.” Fortunately, the Smiths are in good health, but Carol Smith said the quality health care system in Sheridan was a consideration for their future. Depending on where you come from, Sheridan can be considered the big city or a small town, but many can agree that Sheridan provides just enough offerings for all types of people to enjoy living at the base of the Bighorns. ■



The bounty OF THE BIGHORNS

he Bighorn Mountains impressively rise over 13,000 feet, casting a shadow over Sheridan County in the last few hours of sunlight. And the geological wonder is more than just aesthetically

pleasing. The mountains provide an abundance of recreational opportunities — plenty for the casual outdoors person and plenty for the full-fledged outdoor enthusiast. “The Bighorns have a variety of terrain and ecosystems for different types of recreation,” said Sara Evans Kirol, the trails and forest coordinator with the Bighorn National Forest. “… The Bighorns have a diversity of recreation opportunities that all cater to just about anyone’s interest.” The Bighorn National Forest is comprised of more than 1 million acres of land. Mountain peaks, rivers and streams, dense forest and prairies are just some of the natural attractions in the area. The lowlands within Sheridan County also foster outdoor activities, such as fishing, boating and rafting the Tongue River, hunting in permitted areas and hiking. The ranger district — Tongue River in Sheridan and Powder River in Buffalo — helps maintain, repair and improve recreational opportunities. The centers also provide individuals with educational pamphlets to ensure outdoor activities are safe for the individual and the environment. Brian Boden, a natural resource specialist with the Powder River Ranger District of the U.S. Forest Service office, encourages anybody, young or old, locals and new arrivals to utilize the mountains. “You always run into folks that don’t spend any time up there,” Boden said. “We take it for granted what we have up here. We try and promote as much as we can, but I think it’s such an easy opportunity, and we just take it for granted that the mountains are so close.” The Bighorn National Forest is just a little over a half-hour drive from Sheridan (32 miles) on paved and maintained roads and an even shorter drive from the communities of Ranchester, Dayton and Big Horn. U.S. Highway 14 and 14A access the northern reaches of the Bighorn National Forest, while U.S. Highway 16 takes care of the southern half. Whether someone wants to cast a line as the sun begins to set, embark on a long backpacking trip or bring their dinner to find a secluded picnic area just off one of the many Forest Service roads, the Bighorn Mountains and Sheridan County have plenty of options for everyone. ■

he diversity and quality of health care options in Sheridan have turned the community into a regional health care hub. Sheridan Memorial Hospital’s continued growth has expanded local offerings. Cecile Pattison, of SMH community relations said that growth is sustained, in part, by the strength of the community. “We are in a desirable part of Wyoming, so we’re fortunate because that helps us attract a lot of different physicians and different specialties,” Pattison said. “And we are lucky in that way, because I’ve talked to other communities where it is harder for them to attract physicians to their area.” Sheridan’s diverse roster of health care providers offers services in more than 20 specialties, Pattison said, which ultimately complement one another and benefit patients through more comprehensive local care options. The philanthropy throughout Sheridan has also strengthened its medical offerings, Pattison said. The hospital’s Welch Cancer Center, for instance, is funded primarily through philanthropic donations. Pattison said patients as far as 100 miles from Sheridan may rely on the community for their medical needs. And SMH is in many ways central to Sheridan’s health care community. It offers services for every age bracket, starting with prenatal care. The hospital houses a women’s clinic staffed by five OBGYN physicians that Pattison said assist with the birth of about one baby each day. In addition to traditional emergency and urgent care service, Pattison said the hospital sees a lot of patients seeking diabetes education and treatments throughout their lives in the community. The hospital has also grown its internal medical practice. Pattison said SMH has recruited 12 internal medical providers that treat patients starting at 18 years old through the rest of their lives.

Because of Sheridan’s population, which skews older, Pattison said strong elder care is crucial for the community. The hospital primarily works with elders through case workers and case managers, who help connect them to elder care resources in the community. Projections from the U.S. Census Bureau indicate that the proportion of elderly residents in Sheridan and the surrounding region will continue to grow. That growth can carry significant costs if elderly patients become reliant on expensive state- or community-funded treatments. The Hub on Smith is central to Sheridan’s senior community and helps seniors stay healthy, active and socially connected and avoid expensive care, like admission into senior living facilities. The Hub’s executive director, Carmen Rideout, said the center offers a number of home and community-based services focused on general wellness, such as exercise groups, nutritious community meals and social services. It also includes a licensed homehealth care agency, Health at Home, which provides non-medical assistance to elderly residents, like housekeeping, laundry and everyday errands like shopping. “That’s kind of what we’re all about, is staying healthy and connected as long as possible,” Rideout said. “We’re also a hub for information about [other resources that are available].” Sheridan is also home to one of only two Veterans Affairs medical centers in the state.

ficer Kristina Miller said the concentration of health care providers in the community allows the local VA to offer patients a broad range of services, as well. “While we offer a lot of services at our VA, the VA could not provide the spectrum of care across the nation without community partnerships like we have here in Sheridan,” Miller said. Sheridan’s VA Medical Center serves as the main campus of the Sheridan Veterans Affairs Health Care System, which has eight clinics located throughout the state. In the city of Sheridan, though, the VA can connect patients to numerous providers and specialists. Through partnerships with organizations like The Hub on Smith, the Sheridan VA Health Care System can assist veterans through elder care, as well. Community partnerships also enable the VA to assist veterans through services that go slightly beyond health care. “We are always looking for more ways to partner with the community, especially through our employment services,” Miller said. According to Miller, the Sheridan VA Health Care System is tied for fifth in the nation for employing veterans due largely to its partnerships with organizations and businesses in the Sheridan community. “To me, that speaks to the support we get from the community,” Miller said. That community support has helped Sheridan develop a variety of health care options that work off of one another to provide patients with comprehensive care options. ■

reating more affordable housing in and around Sheridan remains one of the community’s primary goals, and stakeholders in different sections of the community are gradually developing strategies that work toward that goal. In October, city of Sheridan Community Development Director Brian Craig and Sheridan Economic and Educational Development Authority administrator Robert Briggs presented Sheridan’s city council with short-term and long-term plans for addressing housing needs in the community. The short-term solutions include conducting a “code audit” of the city’s building regulations and eliminating or revising building codes that could pose obstacles to affordable housing developments or drive up building costs. The city plans on hosting listening sessions with stakeholders through the winter to identify potentially problematic regulations and develop solutions.

The city has also explored the option of encouraging more infill projects, which use vacant or underdeveloped land in already developed communities, essentially filling gaps between existing houses. New housing projects carry fixed costs developers need to pay the city to extend water and sewer infrastructure to the new developments. But because infill lots are in developed areas, and therefore are already connected to that infrastructure, projects on those lots will not need to pay the connection fees. In the long term, the city and SEEDA planned to partner on a housing needs assessment to compile an inventory of the current housing stock in the community and identify where there is unmet demand, both in terms of price points and types of housing. SEEDA recently decided to delay its decision on participating in that study. If and when that study is completed, the community will have to develop a strategy, or several parallel strategies, to address the needs it identifies.

Drew Homola, owner of First Choice Builders, suggested organizing neighborhoods differently may contribute to more affordable housing and more vibrant communities. He proposed neighborhoods have small lots with single-family homes and each home has the ability to have an office, so residents could legally work at home, and an attached or detached smaller unit that could potentially be rented. Keeping the lots small reduces the cost of the lots, and including those additional amenities gives residents the ability to either save money by working at home or profiting from the rental unit on their property. Allowing for small housing lots would also give developers more room to create green spaces and recreational spaces in the development, Homola said. The flexibility the units would provide residents, in terms of both cost and utility, could allow residents to develop amenities organically. “Maybe there would be a coffee shop on the corner or maybe there would be a lawyer’s office in someone’s house or a bank down on the corner, maybe a small grocery store,” Homola said. “So it ends up being a small community.” Homola also suggested mixing different-priced housing units and different types of housing units — such as apartments, town homes and single-family homes — in the development, which would ensure the city does not stratify into

44

I

CO M M U N ITY G U I D E & C H A M B ER M EM B ER D I R EC TO R Y

expensive and inexpensive neighborhoods and instead develops diverse communities. “The city and some other people have put forth effort in getting conversations started, which is always a good place to start,” Homola said. “And I think they are definitely openminded to ideas also.” Philanthropy might also have a small part to play in improving the community’s housing diversity. Habitat for Humanity of the Eastern Bighorns focuses on finding affordable housing for lower-income families in the community and the group’s executive director Christine Dieterich said it plans to ramp up its efforts in the coming year. August 2019 will mark Habitat for Humanity of the Eastern Bighorns’ 25th anniversary. To commemorate that milestone, the group is planning one of its largest projects yet. Dieterich said her group hopes to raise $500,000 over the next year to build a series of multi-family units in the Poplar Grove Planned Unit Development phase four. “That’s going to double the number of families that we have in the next couple of years,” Dieterich said. Community stakeholders agree that there is no silver bullet for the affordable housing shortage in Sheridan County. Addressing its housing needs will require the people throughout the community to develop several partial solutions that, combined, will make Sheridan a more dynamic community. ■

CHECKLIST W

BY ASHLEIGH FOX ith new industry moving in to Sheridan and others expanding, people moving to the area will likely have a list of things to check off as they settle into their home.

√ FIND A NEW DENTIST

There are plenty of options for people seeking dental work in Sheridan. Whether one is looking to have a typical cleaning or something more complex, professional orthodontists and aspiring dental hygienists at Sheridan College provide individuals with a multitude of options. Mary Sandy, a dental hygiene instructor at SC, said patients should ask these questions when looking to have dental work done: ♦ Does the office take insurance? If so, which insurances does the dental office take? If the person doesn’t have insurance, does the office take personal payments, or often, a payment plan? ♦ What are personal experiences of other patients at the office? Reviews are always helpful. ♦ What is the dental office’s reputation in regards to dental care, treatment and quality of work? Once again, reviews are helpful. ♦ Does the office have a professional atmosphere, from personnel to appearance? First impressions through a phone call or stop in is a great way to check out an office. ♦ How does the office handle dental anxiety? Dental fear? Patient comfort? Example: use of local anesthetic, headphones, TV, etc.

√ PICK A REALTOR

The housing market in Sheridan is unique. According to Bestplaces.net, the median cost of a home in Sheridan is $234,400, slightly higher than the $221,500 national average. 52

Dixie See, who has been involved in real estate for nearly 30 years, has seen the ebbs and flows of the market firsthand and said it’s currently on the uptick. See encourages people to do their homework when scouting homes and the realtors in charge of selling those homes. “You need to interview your realtor,” See said. “I tell them to ask (a realtor) how long they’ve been in the business, and what their main priority is. Also ask things like, ‘What kind of education do they have?’” PLUMBERS, ELECTRICIANS AND √ RESEARCH OTHER SERVICE PROVIDERS Once a home is purchased, it will likely need work done on it at some point. Homeowners should be aware and do their due diligence when scouting for people to perform maintenance, such as electrical work and plumbing on their home. “You have to find a well-established company and somebody who’s going to stand by their work,” said an electrician who has worked in Sheridan for more than 30 years. Sheridan offers a few different internet and cable providers with technicians that will come to one’s house to set up service. Multiple highly-reviewed mechanics call Sheridan home, giving residents plenty to choose from when seeking work on their car.

√ SIGN UP FOR ACTIVITIES

Sheridan offers an abundance of opportunities to become involved and active. Sheridan Recreation District and Sheridan County YMCA offer multiple avenues for new residents to engage with other townsfolk and stay active. The recreation district aims to offer athletic and outdoor education programs year-round. “Our mission statement is to provide quality programming and quality facilities to allow for safe activities for youth and adults in the community,” said SRD Executive Director Seth Ulvestad. The recreation district offers adult leagues for numerous sports and even more for youth sports and outdoor programs for children. SRD also encourages people not looking to participate in a sport to consider volunteering their time as youth coaches or to help out as a paid official. The YMCA features youth and outdoor programing, as well. The building houses multiple pools, three gymnasiums, a weight room and classrooms for educational and recreation use. “We offer large-town amenities to a real small town,” Sheridan YMCA Executive Director Liz Cassiday said. “… When people move here they say, ‘I can’t believe this YMCA is in a town this small, so it’s a point of pride.”

√ RESEARCH SCHOOLS

The community of Sheridan offers many educational options from preschool to college. Each school district and private school offers a variety of amenities to fit each family. Students seeking

a higher level of schooling after high school can remain in Sheridan and attend Sheridan College, which offers numerous areas of study. Assistant Superintendent at Sheridan County School District 2 Scott Stults indicates these are some of the questions people have when seeking educational opportunities for their child: ♦ How do your school and students rank in comparison to other schools in the state? ♦ How do you help kids transition from elementary to junior high, and from junior high to high school, and finally from junior high to post-secondary schooling? ♦ What are your class sizes? ♦ What kind of support services, such as counselors, does the school provide? Numerous schools in Sheridan County are National Blue Ribbon Schools, schools that have achieved high levels of student achievement or made significant improvements in closing the achievement gap among student subgroups. Sheridan’s school system offers advanced classes starting in the third grade and partners with Sheridan College on post-secondary options. “We encourage parents to communicate with teachers and administrators,” Stults said. “We are here to help answer questions, and parents can never communicate enough and can’t ever ask too many questions. “We want them as parents, when they drop their child off, to feel confident and comfortable that their child is safe and has the best education possible.” ■

THE NEXT

Big Thing T

he world comes out West expecting to see cowboys driving horses through the streets of downtown; pronghorn butting heads on windswept bluffs; clouds encircling the towering granite pinnacles of the Bighorn Mountains; and endless expanses of wild, open country. These are some of the fibers that have been stitched together over time to create the Shawn Parker patchwork quilt of Sheridan’s identity, each part and parcel to the Wyoming experience. But what you may not have been expecting when you came way out West was a thriving, historic downtown district, with western allure, hospitality and good graces to spare; a vibrant art scene; excellent education and health care systems; bombastic craft culture; a robust festival and events calendar; and living history on every corner. At first blush, picturesque Sheridan is all archetypal mountain verve and Wyoming vigor, but there’s an artistic dynamism and cultural allure here that belies its cow town reputation. Sheridan’s ranching roots run centuries deep, but so too does its polo legacy. The flagship Sheridan WYO Rodeo draws nearly 30,000 visitors to town every July, while the WYO Theater, Brinton Museum and Whitney Center for the Arts have become artistic touchstones with significant regional cache. National attractions abound – the Historic Sheridan Inn is a siren song to the legend and lore of the Wild West; the ancient Medicine Wheel, at an altitude of 9,462-feet, lords over the mountains with a mystical presence that defies explanation; and Indian battle sites like Fort Phil Kearny, the Fetterman Fight, and the Wagon Box Fight, all located along the Bozeman Trail, offer endless educational and historical attractions. There’s an undercurrent of the carefree in Sheridan, and the legendary hospitality of its proud residents is worn like a badge of honor. Blessed by mountain topography and evenly spaced between Yellowstone National Park and Mount Rushmore and Badlands National Park, there’s a sense about town that Sheridan is poised to be the Next Big Thing, though those in the know understand that it always has been.

heridan’s western history and dramatic mountain vistas make the community of nearly 18,000 Wyoming’s jewel, according to Sheridan County Travel and Tourism. Sheridan is a meeting place for old-west charm and modern amenities, making it an ideal spot for visitors, residents and business people alike. According to “Images of America: Sheridan,” by Pat Blair, Dana Prater and the Sheridan County Museum, the story of Sheridan takes the archetypal American frontier experience and transforms it into something unique. In May of 1882, John Loucks contacted engineer Jack Dow of Big Horn City to survey 40 acres that would become Sheridan, according to “Images of America.” Streets and landmarks still boast the names of the earliest residents: Kenneth Burkitt, James Works, George Brundage and Alexander Gould, to name a few. The first passenger train arrived Nov. 18, 1892, and was greeted by 1,000 Sheridan residents. This represented the moment Sheridan became connected to the outside world. Today, it is the quality of life that draws people to Sheridan. “For those of us with children, the quality of life here — my husband and I are both able to have good jobs, and there are

great schools here — it is a pretty amazing place,” Sheridan County Commissioner Christi Haswell said. A vibrant nonprofit sector and a thriving business community have maintained responsible growth, ensuring that the town doesn’t dwindle. Sheridan also boasts being “undiscovered” in a way communities across the Colorado front range have been in the last 30 years, creating booming metropolises in a short amount of time. Landmarks like the Historic Sheridan Inn have been saved time and again by public philanthropists, and years-long efforts to save amenities like the ski lifts at the Antelope Butte Mountain Recreation Area are finally paying off. Sheridan is home to state-of-the-art facilities like the Sheridan County YMCA, with construction underway on a new aquatic center, and Whitney Rink at the M&M’s Center boasting youth hockey leagues and ice skating in a brand-new indoor building. There are limitless outdoor recreational opportunities in the Bighorns just a short drive from town. “All of these things, and the quality of life, are what makes Sheridan such a great place,” Haswell said. ■

ittle Goose Creek snakes down the eastern slope of the Bighorn Mountains, framing the unincorporated community of Big Horn. “One thing that makes us so special is being at the base of the Bighorns,” said Susie Mohrmann, instructional facilitator for Sheridan County School District 1. “We have Red Grade Trails and Red Grade Road so close that we really can be in the mountains quickly. We have teachers that will go up and ski after work or teachers that bring their four-wheelers and go up just right after work.” “It is right there, so close and so easily accessible,” Mohrmann said. First inhabited two years after the Battle of the Little Bighorn in a time before Sheridan County was even Sheridan County, a 27-yearold Army scout, buffalo hunter, miner and trapper named Oliver Perry Hanna decided to build himself a permanent home in what is now Big Horn. Today, Big Horn is home to world-class polo clubs like the Big

CO M M U N ITY G U I D E & C H A M B ER M EM B ER D I R EC TO R Y

Horn Polo Club at the Big Horn Equestrian Center. Spectators are encouraged to come to Sunday polo for an afternoon of tailgating with free admission. Polo begins the first week of June and runs through Labor Day weekend. The Flying H Polo Club will enter its 15th season in 2019, also just outside Big Horn, from July 5 through August. The Big Horn area has long been a polo pony training area, according to Flying H. Horses from nearby ranches have found their way around the world to compete in polo for more than 100 years. Mohrmann said the schools are central to the Big Horn community. Big Horn boasts past National Blue Ribbon designations from the Department of Education. She added that roughly 50 percent of families living in Big Horn choose to attend Big Horn schools rather than attend Sheridan County School District 2 schools, which Mohrmann believes exemplifies the draw of the Big Horn community. “We’ve got small classes, we have great buildings and invested teachers,” Mohrmann said. “There is definitely a draw for people out here, whether it is nature or us, there is that draw.” ■

BY ASHLEIGH FOX

The soft-spoken unincorporated community of Story boasts the feel of a true getaway. With no established government body, volunteers make up the backbone of the community. The Lions Club and Woman’s Club breathe life into Story, giving a large majority of its year-round residents ways to become involved and contribute positively toward bettering its community. At the heart of its efforts is Story Days, which brings people from throughout Sheridan County to visit shops, bid on silent auction items, grab a bite or throw a horseshoe for some friendly competition. Close by, Banner serves as the hallway between Sheridan and Story and connects with a glimpse of old buildings and residents wanting to live close to the city without actually living within municipal boundaries. Butted up against the pristine Bighorn Mountains, the Story Fire Protection District and volunteer fire department facilitate ongoing conversations about fire prevention efforts in the area. Story also houses several outdoor recreational opportunities, but the Story Fish Hatchery and hiking trails stand above the rest. The Story Fish Hatchery was constructed in 1895, and was initially housed at Wolf Creek south of Dayton. In 1907, the hatchery was relocated to Story, according to the Wyoming Game and Fish Department. In 1993, an entirely new fish hatchery was constructed to include outdoor exhibits and displays along with hatchery operations. 60

The Stockwell Trail also serves as a moderate out-and-back trail perfect for hiking, birding and off-road driving, especially with all-terrain vehicles. Whether a guest at one of the three lodges, a part-time cabin owner or full-time Story resident, the quaint little community provides a serene escape from a bustling downtown Sheridan. â–

uilt on the rails and established in 1911, Ranchester is nestled deep in the heart of farm and ranch country. “Ranchester is a dynamic community in a beautiful location,” Mayor Peter Clark said. “It is a growing, thriving community perfect for everyone.” Boasting good schools and affordable housing, Ranchester is close enough to Sheridan to benefit from all amenities that Sheridan has to offer without the hassle of being in town, Clark said. A 2017 estimate records Ranchester with a population of 974. The town is located 9 miles from the Montana state line, directly off Interstate 90. It received its name from S.H. Hardin, who owned a local ranch encompassing several thousand acres, according to the Sheridan County Chamber of Commerce. Town names in Hardin’s native country of England often ended in “chester,” so Hardin dubbed the town “Ranchester.” In addition to its namesake ranches, the town was the site of the loading dock for railroad ties hewn from timber harvested in the Bighorn Mountains and floated down the tie flume. 62

CO M M U N ITY G U I D E & C H A M B ER M EM B ER D I R EC TO R Y

The town is adjacent to the banks of Tongue River and offers amenities including city water, sewer and garbage services, a bank, a post office, an active community center, a community library, a fishing pond, state park and a museum. Local businesses provide services and products to support the many recreational opportunities available in the nearby Bighorn Mountains. “Ranchester is a great place to start a family or retire,” Clark said. “There is fishing in Connor Battlefield State Park, and the Bighorn Mountains are only a few minutes away.” The Connor Battlefield State Park is located within the town limits and is home to great fishing opportunities, a playground area for children and many available sites for overnight camping. Historic U.S. Highway 14 runs through the center of town and into the Bighorns via the Big Horn Scenic Byway, ending at the east gate to Yellowstone National Park. The combination of rich history, incredible views and friendly community make Ranchester the West at its best. “Ranchester’s future looks bright,” Clark said. ■

he town of Dayton frames U.S. Highway 14 as it enters the foothills of the Bighorn Mountains in northwestern Sheridan County, approximately 17 miles from the county seat of Sheridan. Incorporated in 1906, the town has a strong agricultural history. Fertile land and abundant water attracted many ranchers and farmers to the area. Timber harvested in the mountains above Dayton was hewn into railroad ties and floated to Dayton and points beyond via a wooden flume. The Dayton Flour Mill provided the first electric power in the area. “Dayton is unique due to the people and the amenities available in this community,” Mayor Norm Anderson said. The town is also home to the Tongue River Valley Community Center, a nonprofit gym and physical fitness center that serves as a place to bring together communities and friends for health and wellness activities and community meetings and events. Scott Bicentennial Park offers a variety of recreational opportunities with a playground and toddler area, a skateboard park, basketball

courts, horseshoe pits, sand volleyball courts and a baseball field. Resting along the Tongue River, Scott Bicentennial Park also has a bike/walk/run path that winds around natural habitat and displays the plants and wildlife of the area. The Art Badgett Swimming Pool offers summer session swimming lessons and a place to cool off for locals and tourists alike. Dayton was named in 1882 after Joe Dayton Thorne, one of the founding fathers of the community. The town has the distinction of electing the first female mayor in Wyoming, Susan Wissler. Artist Hans Kleiber, known as the “Etcher Laureate of the Big Horns,” made Dayton his home. Today, Dayton boasts the Hans Kleiber Studio Museum, a historic log cabin studio of world-famous German-born etching artist. Dayton’s population has grown as families move to the area seeking a more relaxed, rural lifestyle. “Our main street has been adorned with new decorative street lights, and these are just a few of the qualities and public facilities available,” Anderson said. ■

T

BY CARRIE HADERLIE

he town of Clearmont, population 142, celebrated its 125th birthday in 2017 with homemade cupcakes and ice cream, a parade and other activities fit for the close-knit community in southeastern Sheridan County. “Clearmont is an amazing little rural community in Wyoming,” said Charles Auzqui, superintendent for Sheridan County School District 3. “The community as a whole takes great pride in supporting its youth, and that is reflected in our individual and schoolwide achievements at all levels.” According to the book “Clearmont: It Takes More Than a Railroad 1892-1929,” created by the Clearmont Historical Society, which started collecting the town’s history in the 1980s, towns sprung up across the West for various reasons in the early days. Some came into being as railroad worker camps or water stops, and if enough people decided to stay, businesses began to take root. Towns grew, and with schools, churches and more people in the area, Clearmont became more than a railroad stop. The town was incorporated in 1919, marking its first real step

64

I

CO M M U N ITY G U I D E & C H A M B ER M EM B ER D I R EC TO R Y

toward being established as a community. There were needs, though: lights, water and infrastructure necessary for businesses topped the list. Hard work brought these around, and today, Clearmont remains a small farming and ranching community. Children can attend school in Clearmont from kindergarten through 12th grade. Families also have the choice between two community churches. Community amenities include city water, sewer and garbage services, as well as a library and a park. Public safety is maintained by the Sheridan County Sheriff’s Office and the local volunteer fire department and ambulance services. Three particular points of interest in the Clearmont area: the Clearmont Town Jail, built in 1922 and on the National Registry of Historic Places; the Old Rock School, one of only a few oneroom rock school buildings in Wyoming; and the Ucross Foundation art gallery, hosting numerous art exhibitions and having a unique artists-in-residence program drawing from all over the world. ■
