A HUGE thank you to the Kiwanis of Dubois, WY for their generous donation to our Little Lambs account at Lynn’s Superfoods!🐑💛
Because of your generosity, we’re able to provide healthy snacks for some of the youngest residents of our community. We are so grateful to have local organizations that care about our children and continue to support our little ones in such meaningful ways.
It truly takes a community to support our children, and we are so thankful to be part of one that continuously shows up for them! Thank you, Kiwanis, for helping keep our Little Lambs happy, healthy, and well-fed! 🥰🍎🥕

Leah Vermeire provided details about Jason's Friends Foundation at our morning meeting on July 21. “Jason’s Friends exists to assist Wyoming families whose children suffer from cancer, brain tumors or spinal cord tumors by providing financial assistance, advocacy and encouragement.” The Foundation was inspired by the life of Jason Eades, who passed away at the age of 9 after a battle with a brain stem tumor. "Bowl for Jason’s Friends" is an annual fund raiser for donors, bowlers and sponsors around the state, with proceeds being the primary source of revenue for the funding to help Wyoming families with a multitude of expenses.
Camp Courage Wyoming, held annually at Crooked Creek Ranch west of Dubois, was created in 2012 to bring childhood cancer patients, survivors and their families together to connect with other Wyoming families who travel out of state for treatment. It is made possible through grants, individual donations and volunteer efforts. Please go to jasonsfriends.org for more information about how you can help.
It was a delight to have Leah and her children join us for breakfast. An active community volunteer and business woman, Leah has been involved with the Foundation for 13 years, including eight years as a Camp Courage volunteer.

Wind River District Ranger Jeff von Kienast was our guest for breakfast on July 7 and apprised us of the wide variety of activities happening across the Shoshone National Forest.
Priorities of the USFS focus on keeping people safe, protecting communities from wildfire, managing forests for health and productivity and strengthening partnerships. The Shoshone is addressing those needs under categories of Fire & Fuels, Wildlife, Aquatics, Recreation, and Range. Some projects that assist in meeting those needs include timber sales, fuel breaks, firewood program and improving Bighorn Sheep habitat. Fisheries enhancement is in the works on Union Pass. Clearing trails of downed trees is ongoing, especially considering the wind in our area. Range management is in full swing with ranchers putting cattle in the mountains. Ranger von Kienast noted that Wyoming has been fortunate thus far, with most fires outside our borders, although crews from Wyoming are often called to fires all over the U.S. (Photo: Kiwanis Club President Michele Burdick presented a Certificate of Appreciation to Jeff von Kienast)

Wyoming Community Foundation representatives Charlie Manganiello, Associate Director of Philanthropy, and Mary Turney, Member of the WCF Dubois-Crowheart Board, joined us on June 30.
Established in 1989, the Wyoming Community Foundation connects donors with causes that matter in every county of Wyoming. More than $150 million has been given to charitable causes through grants and support to nonprofits. Our Dubois Kiwanis Club recently received an award for Literacy to purchase books for children and to assist with the summer reading program!
The message Charlie and Mary shared was the importance of looking for worthwhile donations in Estate planning. The national “5 TO THRIVE” campaign for foundations encourages those who are transferring wealth to consider reinvesting 5% of that wealth in charitable giving. Numerous choices are available within 500 WCF established funds. Initial steps may include having a conversation with family as a Will is created, asking an attorney or estate planner how community can fit into your will and/or contacting the Foundation.

June 16 Program guest was Bob Finley, Assistant Supervisor
Fremont County W**d and Pest, Dubois-Crowheart W**d Mgmt Area. A DHS and University of Wyoming graduate, with a degree in Farm & Ranch Management, Bob also holds a Master’s Degree in Plant Sciences. He has enjoyed the many and varied aspects of his job since he began with Fremont County W**d and Pest in 2002. His presentation, Selected Fremont County W**ds, began with stating that a w**d is a plant out of place. Information was shared about Biennials, Perennials and Invasive species, how to treat toxicity, identification and more. Bob described the five methods for successful w**d control: Prevention, Cultural, Mechanical, Bio Control and Herbicide. In addition to time in the field, Bob does free consultations, cost-share spraying of designated w**ds and much more as he works with the Conservation District and property owners. Having a great grandfather who homesteaded in this area in 1901 gives Bob an excellent perspective of the history of the land.
