CHEYENNE, Wyo. – Jan. 23, 2026 – The Wyoming Outdoor Recreation and Tourism Trust Fund (ORTTF) board will meet on Thursday, Feb. 5, 2026, from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. (MDT) in Riverton at the Wind River Hotel–Casino, located at 180 Red Wolf Place.

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 across the state.

The board will oversee the ORTTF and award competitive grants from the fund for outdoor recreation infrastructure projects across the state starting in July 2026. The board hopes to begin accepting applications early this year.

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.
