CHEYENNE, Wyo. – April 20, 2026 – The Wyoming Outdoor Recreation and Tourism Trust Fund (ORTTF) board will meet on Tuesday, April 28, 2026, from 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. (MDT) and Wednesday, April 29, 2026, from 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. (MDT) at the Saratoga Hot Springs Resort, located at 601 Pic Pike Rd, Saratoga, WY 82331.  

The ORTTF will support outdoor recreation infrastructure projects across Wyoming through funds generated from the statewide lodging tax.

The nine-member board was appointed by Governor Mark Gordon and confirmed by the Wyoming Senate. Its members reflect a broad spectrum of outdoor recreation perspectives, interests, and experiences statewide.

The board will oversee the ORTTF and award competitive grants from the fund for outdoor recreation infrastructure projects across the state. The board accepted applications from February 25 through April 11 for the inaugural funding round. During this meeting, the board will review submitted applications to determine which projects warrant additional evaluation through site visits, with final grant awards to be determined at the board’s July meeting.

Members of the public are welcome to attend these meetings. An online attendance option will be available for virtual attendees; however, the ORTTF board will benefit from your in-person attendance.  A designated time will be provided for public comment.
