🐾VIA PAWS FOR LIFE: “We would like to clear up some of the miscommunication and confusion that many of you have hear about the shelter recently. Our main topic is how we are running the shelter, the shelter is not open only by appointments. We are open from 12-5 Tuesdays through Fridays and are open from 10-1 on Saturdays. We have moved to scheduled appointments for adoptions. If you have filled out an application to adopt and have been accepted, a scheduled appointment will allow you and the rest of your family to come and spend time with the animal of your choosing and will allow enough monitored time for meet and greet with other pets in the home. Appointments will also allow us to get more animals adopted out, if the times that we are open to the public does not work for you, a different time can be offered. If you have any questions please feel free to reach out to us and we will answer them to the best of our ability.”

SURVEY! The good local food people of Fremont County continue to think on, and visit about, how to create a state-inspected "commissary" kitchen for local food businesses to utilize for their value-added food processing, food preparation and private chef-ing. Perhaps, one located at Riverton's Fremont Local Market and another in Lander.
To facilitate this, CWC seeks input on how to expand the local food economy through the production of locally grown and processed foods, developing additional sales channels for local food retail, what the education needs are for developing value-added processed food products and if there is a need for a shared-use inspected commercial kitchen for making value-added products.

Please join the conversation by filling out this linked survey. Your responses are anonymous unless you choose to provide contact information.

Here's the survey link: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/cwclocalfoodsurvey

support the rhs after party!

Riverton High School After Prom is funded solely by donations and grants and on average costs between $10,000-$15,000.
The party is held to keep our youth safe and off the roads on one of the statistically “deadliest” nights of the year.
We rely completely on the generosity and support of our community businesses and families and, of course, our amazing Rec Board!
Volunteers will be heading out to many of our local businesses this month with flyers. Please remember, every.little.bit.counts!
If you would like to donate, please comment or message us (on Facebook) and we will be sure to send someone by.
Personal and family donations are also greatly appreciated!
