Low Water Notice at Guernsey State Park

GUERNSEY, Wyo. – June 27, 2025 – The Bureau of Reclamation has announced its annual silt run at Guernsey State Park. As a result, the reservoir will experience a rapid decline in water levels starting July 6. The boat ramps will be unusable from approximately July 9 through July 26. Water levels at Guernsey Reservoir are expected to be suitable for boating again by the morning of July 27. The reservoir will continue to rise by about 3 feet per day and is anticipated to reach the normal operational level by July 29.

"We appreciate the understanding and patience of our visitors during this period. While water levels may be low, Guernsey State Park still offers a wide range of outdoor activities and beautiful scenery," stated Cassie Wells, superintendent of Guernsey State Park. "We encourage everyone to come out and experience everything our park offers."

Despite the low water levels, many recreational activities will still be available, including camping, hiking, and mountain biking. The playground and museum will remain open. The park also features some of the best examples of Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) work in the Rocky Mountain region.

Customers with affected reservations can modify their bookings online at reserve.wyoming.gov or by calling 877-996-7275.

Nearby boating opportunities are available at Glendo State Park, Hawk Springs State Recreation Area, Gray Rocks Reservoir, and other locations.

Boaters and recreationists are advised to take proper precautions in response to the changing river flows below Glendo and Guernsey Reservoirs and the rapid lowering and refilling of Guernsey Reservoir during this period.

For more information about Guernsey State Park, please call 307-836-2334 or visit wyoparks.wyo.gov/guernsey.

Family Fun Awaits at the Wyoming State Museum's Dino Day

CHEYENNE, Wyo. — June 27, 2025 — The Wyoming State Museum invites you to attend their Fifth Annual Dino Day. Taking place from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday, July 12, Dino Day is an opportunity for young dinosaur enthusiasts to meet experts, learn, play, and discover Wyoming’s prehistoric past.

The State Museum and its grounds will be transformed into a dino-themed paradise for kids and kids-at-heart to enjoy. The annual event features crafts, games, and activities that bring attendees closer to Wyoming’s paleontological pasts. A “Field of Dinos” with poles reaching toward the sky will show just how big (and small) some of the most famous dinosaurs were. Kids can play games like “Tricera-toss,” make adorable dino-themed crafts, smile for the photo booth, explore the museum with a dinosaur scavenger hunt, crawl in a “Tunnel Through Time,” touch fossils, and more. The Museum’s Curator of Education will also provide high-energy, interactive programs every twenty minutes, encouraging kids to engage their brains and bodies in learning about six dinosaur species.

Attendees will also have the opportunity to meet experts and learn about prehistory from staff members of the Wyoming State Geological Survey, Wyoming State Parks, and the Wyoming State Museum. The Davidson Family, a local family dedicated to supporting programs and education, will bring some of their favorite reptiles, including bearded dragons, leopard geckos, a crested gecko, a sulcata tortoise, a ball python, and an albino red-tailed boa.

Melisa McChesney, curator of community engagement at the Wyoming State Museum, said that large programs like Dino Day depend on community members and partners to bring the most exciting and engaging experiences to Cheyenne. “We are tremendously grateful to the partners and volunteers that help make our events successful,” said McChesney. Anyone looking for volunteer or partnership opportunities should feel welcome to reach out to her directly to get involved.

Dino Day, like all of the museum’s offerings, is free and open to everyone. Registration is encouraged so that museum staff can ensure there are plenty of activities and supplies for every attendee. Families can find the registration link at bit.ly/WSMfamilydays or register by phone at 307-630-2573.

LARAMIE, Wyo. – June 19, 2025 – The Wyoming Territorial Prison State Historic Site will celebrate Wyoming's 1890 statehood with a special event on July 10. Guests can enjoy free admission all day, with activities from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., thanks to the sponsorship of the Wyoming Territorial Park Historic Association.

"We are thrilled to invite the community to join us in celebrating Wyoming's rich history on Statehood Day," said Jessica Lira, superintendent of the Wyoming Territorial Prison State Historic Site. "This event will be a wonderful opportunity for families to experience 19th-century life and create lasting memories. We look forward to seeing everyone at the Wyoming Territorial Prison State Historic Site!"

This family-friendly celebration will feature a variety of activities, including appearances by Cowboy Joe, Jubilee Days Royalty, a balloon twister, and costumed interpreters portraying life in 19th-century Laramie. Laramie's Sagebrush Stringband will provide live music from 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Each visitor will receive a complimentary cupcake while supplies last, and food trucks will be on-site, offering a variety of delicious options.

After a new prison was constructed in Rawlins in 1903, the facility was repurposed by the University of Wyoming as an agricultural experiment station until 2004, when it became managed by Wyoming State Parks and Cultural Resources as a historic site.

The regular operating hours for the Wyoming Territorial Prison State Historic Site are from May through September, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. daily, and October through April, 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., Thursday through Saturday.

Wyoming Veterans in Focus: Oral History & Photo Exhibit Project

LARAMIE, Wyo. — June 16, 2025— The Wyoming Department of State Parks and Historic Sites, Wyoming State Archives, and Wyoming Arts Council are partnering on a project to gather and exhibit portraits and oral histories of Wyoming military veterans. The exhibition will open in the temporary exhibit gallery at the Wyoming Territorial Prison State Historic Site in time for Memorial Day 2026. "Wyoming Veterans in Focus: Oral History and Photo Exhibit Project" ensures that Wyoming veterans' experiences are preserved in their own words through conversations with those who share the unique bond of military service. The project pairs veterans with fellow veterans of all ages to conduct interviews about their experiences and lives in Wyoming. There will be 3-5 formal interview dates at locations across the state. Each scheduled session will include professional portrait photography to preserve the stories and faces of Wyoming's military community.

There are two main ways to be involved:

Wyoming State Archives staff is overseeing the oral histories, including training veterans to conduct oral histories, editing, and preserving the information collected. Veterans interested in participating as either an interviewer or as an interviewee can complete an online participation form by June 30, 2025. The form is available at: https://forms.gle/goQaYziX5Vp9CEMq5
The Wyoming Arts Council is administering a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) to select one portrait photographer who will conduct photo shoots around the state and produce high-quality, printed, and mounted photos for the exhibition. The RFQ is open to Wyoming photographers, and those with current or former military experience are encouraged to apply. The deadline to apply to the RFQ is June 26, 2025 and is available online at: https://artist.callforentry.org/festivals_unique_info.php?ID=15533

The artist call can be found at bit.ly/WAAM2026ArtistCall. All interested applicants must apply through CaFE.

We are seeking visual artists who will explore, through art, Wyoming's early connection with horses as documented in the archaeological record and how this understanding has contributed to our national heritage.

Additionally, this program includes the distribution of the poster statewide, nationally, and internationally. Traditionally, the poster program features and celebrates an archaeological site or artifact from Wyoming. To see examples of Wyoming Archaeology Awareness Month (WAAM) Posters, please visit the SHPO website at bit.ly/WAAMAwardPosters.

The WAAM Poster call is open to visual artists from Wyoming, Colorado, Montana, Idaho, and Utah. Both established and emerging artists are welcome to apply.
